I did not even get that until I read your post. I kept thinking the driver had to have been part of Island life, but just couldn't put it together! (I'm slow).

Great episode!!!!Desmond rules!!!...brooootthhha...
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
So when Des goes off with Sayid so willingly... does everyone think Widmore sent him out into the jungle as part of a trap to get taken by Sayid? Seems to me to be most likely since he went so willingly...

I don't know... I think Des may have realized that no matter what happens ... something happens so it must be so...

Yeah, I agree. Desmond seemed so at peace about everything. Somehow he knows what he has to do.
Whatever that is. :?:
Minkowski worked security with Sawyer when he, Juliet, Jin were at the Dharma Initiative from '74 - '77.
wasn't he also the communications guy on the freighter? the one that ended up washing up on the island after having his throat slit which time traveled because the island radioed the freighter saying he washed up on the shore but he was still on the boat alive not having been killed yet by keemy or 1 of his guys?

The guy that washed up was the doctor from the freighter. I believe George just died when he couldn't 'get back' from his time travels...

he learned that the island can give you whatever it is you want-money, fame, immortality
bring back lost loved ones-even dead ones-and that he is somehow connected to all of that
thats what eloise meant by you are not yet ready-to handle the power that the island gives
what do you think-jack and kate or jack and his father?
so did he see what else happens in the "parallel" world when he was out (and not just what is revealed on the show)?
I think he either is so at peace with the fate aspect of the island, or knows exactly how the future plays out. That is why he went so willingly with Sayid (and really didnt say much or act happy to see him).

Yeah I was kind of speaking to this above but the addition of future seeing Desmond sounds right on the mark... Well done.
Just a few other thoughts on this episode, which I liked BTW.
Wasn't it awfully weird to see Desmond and Widmore as BFFs?
Great to see Charlie again but he wasn't exactly likable in the alternate universe.
Desmond was kinda stalkerish the way he approached Penny at the stadium. I mean, if that's his usual pick up style, no wonder he's single.
Wow, GREAT episode! First time in a while I got chills. Must have something to do w/great acting. For the first time this season, I'm actually looking forward to next week to see what happens...
I have to admit, I'm totally gay for the Desmond/Penny love story...gets me every fucking time!

Oh yeah, don't know what it is about them but I so want them to be happy.
Same here. With all the others, like Kate and Jack or Kate and Sawyer, you get the feeling it won't work out anyway, With Penny and Desmond you just know they are meant to be together.
Jinn and Sun too .
Peace, Love.

I've noticed he hasn't aged well compared to the rest of the cast, starting with season 5.. I guess he is in his forties, although I think he's the same age as Desmond.. Maybe he's just not hitting the gym.
There are only 5 episodes left, right? I think the 2 hour finale is on Sunday, May 23 (the day we get back from NYC so I hope our flight is on time and we have plenty of time to get the dogs from the kennel and settle back and watch it). But when are the other 4 episodes? Does anyone know? Obviously there are a lot more than 4 Tuesdays between now and then. I'm curious because we will also be at the STL concert which is on a Tuesday.

Had a thought/theory - I think the Adam/Eve skeletons from the caves are going to end up being Charles Widmore and Eloise Hawking.
Sideways theory - Sun's baby is going to be saved by Juliet.
I'm going to be sad when this show ends....
