What if I don't? You gonna beat me with your Jesus Stick?

 What's that? You're not taking drugs are you, John? I only ask because of the strict zero tolerance policy you've enacted, and I wouldn't want you to have to start punching yourself in the face.

Well ladies and gents...it's time for season three.  Season three was a real doozy of a season.  Most of it took place at the Hydra Station which is actually later found to exist on an adjacent island to the original crash location.  And let's not forget my favorite moment of the season...when the Red Sox won the series!!  :P   Season three also introduced us to the not so amusing characters of Nikki and Paulo.  For me, Nikki and Paulo were Boone and Shannon take two: now 100x more annoying!  I was not sad to see them go early on in the season.  And I'm fairly certain everyone was with me on that.  The best part of their passing might be this exchange between Hurley and Sawyer: 

"She stumbled out of the jungle; face planted. Said something like ply wood. And, and..."
   "Actually I think she said power lines."     
"Well who the hell knows what she said, she was five seconds from dying. Probably seeing a light at the end of the tunnel...

" Paulo lies! That's what she said, Paulo lies not power lines, Paulo lies."     
"Who the hell's Paulo?"  

Well put Sawyer. Well put. Oh and better yet...what she said was "Paralyzed." Awesome.

Kate finally chose Sawyer over Jack (well chosen) but then...she didn't.  Typical Kate.  Jack bartered for her freedom despite her obviously harlot attitude and she and Sawyer take off with Alex and her now tortured boyfriend Karl in tow.  We're also introduced more personally to Juliet who, I was highly annoyed by.  I didn't like her with Jack (though you'd think I would have!)  and I liked her less when she inevitably moved on to greener pastures (but that's for season 4!!)  It also included one of my most favorite quotes of all time. From the mouth of Benjamin Linus no less:

  

"Do you believe in God, Jack? Two days after I found out I had a fatal tumor on my spine, a spinal surgeon fell out of the sky, and if that's not proof of God, I don't know what is."  

Other things that happened?  Kate and Sawyer are captured and finally "hook up".  In attempt to escape no less than 7 others are killed.  Juliet is brought back to camp with Jack which sparks concern from the losties. Charlie disengages the Looking Glass which allows communication with the outside world and ultimately pays for it with his life (worst LOST moment EVER!).  Desmond has flashes of the future which change depending on what the losties do.  Ben shoots Locke and leaves him for dead.  Sun ends up pregnant and Sayid and Locke discover another station: The Flame.  And let's not forget that Hurley resurrects a Dharma van complete with beer! Oh how I lived for those little happy moments in such a stress ridden season. Reminds me of "the first...and hopefully LAST, Island Open" created by Hurley in season one. :)

On to the nails!!  My thumb is the Hydra symbol.  The index finger is the quintessential moment where Charlie gives up his life for the greater good.  He leaves Desmond with just this message: "Not Penny's boat." (btw Darlton, why did he have to shut that door and drown?!)  The middle is that "Jesus stick" Eko carried around with him until his unfortunate death via Smokey. The ring is the Dharma van Charlie, Sawyer and Hurley took for a joy ride.  And the pinkie is the fish biscuit!! Who can forget how Sawyer tried to get those silly bear treats?  He was so proud of himself...until Tom offered that it had only taken the bears two hours to get the treat!  Oh and the Kate exchange?

 "You taste like strawberries."  

"You taste like fish biscuits."  

Classic.

Don't forget to check out what the other ladies came up with for Season Three! Debbie, Emma, Kerrie, Kirsten, and Sarah will all have something wonderful I'm sure! Tomorrow's post will be up at 1:06PM!

I leave you with this wonderful quote straight from my beloved Charlie who was tragically taken in Season Three:

"I have this dream. I'm driving a bus, and my teeth start falling out. My mum is in the back, eating biscuits. Everything smells of bacon. It's weird. 'Course I don't wake up screaming."
