Speaking as someone with a baby asleep in the next room, I'd just like to suggest that LOST be renamed The People Speak Quietly, But Music Plays Really Loudly Show.

Well, the last season is about to start, though I feel like I'm officially the last one to care.

Andrew has a Ball Bopper -- you drop balls down a slide and the toy then shoots them into the air so they fall back down the process begins anew. He played with it in this fashion for a few months, and then he realized that, pulled down at a slight angle, it becomes a kick ass cannon.

I'm so proud.
