k I hope I didn't get these wrong but here should be Sawyer (bloody sexy blood elf rogue)
Claire (undead priest)
Charlie Pace(He was going to be a Orc but my little sister said he's to hot) as a blood elf priest.
and none other then the Immortal Other Richard Alpert as a Drinai (sorry I can't Spell at all) (sigh....)
WOW more pics!!!
Jack is the blood elf restorative pally mostly cuz I wanted most of the losties to be Horde and the Others to be Alliance. But also because he's kind of concited, selfish and (at the beggining of season 4) is engaged in addictive behavior kinda like the blood elves.
sry these are out of order.....but here they are:
Hurley is the big Drinai (spelling) cuz he's nice to pretty much everybody, even the bad guys. \
Kate is the undead Warlock:-/ and yup that is little Aaron at her side ;-)
I made Mike a Warrior because he goes kind rage/crazy when the Others steal his son, "WAALT!!!!"]
Annie isn't a main character but she is one of my faves so I made her another drinai mage. XD
hey this is just a little fun thing I thought I'd do because I have a week until i see the next episode of LOST. So, I created the World of Warcraft counterparts of each of the main characters in the show... they arent all here yet but they will be uploaded shortly. My fav. character ben linus (who is the "gollum/professor snape in lost) I have portrayed as a death knight. People who knew him think he's a harmless old man but, well the Losties know differently. I was going to make him a rogue but given that this most recient episode showed his 'redeption' and the growth of a consicience I thought a DK would do nicely.
Juliet-Ben's female counterpart of sorts is a Night elf druid because she "changes" loyalties from one side to the other and she is kinda a vixien.
John Locke is a Troll hunter because I thought it fit his personality: "i want to go out and kill wild animals and enjoy nature" persona
Mr. Eko, the losties very own priest and religious leader (for a while at least) I made a Taren Shammy.
Look, he's still got his "Jesus stick"!
enjoy!!!

Gay Marriage: A Loss Either Way
Everyone seems to be posting their opionion on this issue so I will follow suite...Just in case you were curious which you probably weren't.
I am of the opinion that the world his heading for hell.
Weither or not Prop 8 passed or not has been irrelivant to me from the beginning. Although I fully support it, it's passing has not been a victory.
It seems as though I am the only one who knows how dispicable the situation is. Judges and minorites, a small group of elite people are trying to undermine the will of the people.
A few years ago, there was a prop. to pass gay marrige, it failed. and BEHIND OUR BACKS a judge rules to allow gay marrage. I don't understand how this behavior can be justified in a democratic republic like America. When Prop. 8 comes along, we pass it. There is no question about what the popular vote wants, they are not accusing those who voted for Prop. 8 of fraud. But a group of elite's still want to circumvent the will of the people. This makes me angry, not because of the wrongness of gay marrage but because it goes against the principles upon which we are founded.
A friend at work told me reguarding prop. 8 passing.. "isn't it interesting that the most liberal state in the US bans gays from marrying. I mean what happened to idolizing Ellen Degeneres and all the Hollywood people who are gay."
To me the passing of prop 8 signified something significant happening in our culture. People have had enough of it. People are starting to be finished with Idolizing the selfish people who hold so much sway over the younger population.
People are starting to understand that life was meant to follow certian patterns, and weither you are a heterosexual or not, you must recognize that homosexual activity is not a part of that pattern.
If prop. 8 hadn't passed, I think I would have been disapointed, but not suprised. What has suprised me is the negative feedback we have gotten from those who wanted it to pass....
Think about it, if the situation were reversed the supporters of prop. 8 would not fight to circumvent the will of the popular vote. Yet this is exactly what the minority has done.
They demoralize us, call us prejudiced, and even disrupt the worship of a part of our faction.
I have no doubt that if the minority went far enough, they could find a way to legalize it anyway.
Either way, we would loose.

34. Apollo bars are good sources of nutrition that should be handed to children to eat at will.
35. After you see someone commit murder, maybe it's not the best idea to come in screaming his name so you can be a sitting duck. Right Libby?
36. If you meet a doctor with tattoos and think there might be an interesting story behind them, think again.
37. If you are elected leader of a group, cry a lot and when someone makes a suggestion, say some variation of “we’re done.” People love that.

41. If you're not on the list, you wouldn't understand, so don't bother asking.
42. In interpersonal communication, it is perfectly OK to answer someone's important question with silence and a blank stare. This always gets the message across. If, for some reason, they're feeling a bit feisty, say something like, "It's... complicated," or make fun of them for asking you in the first place.
43. If you ever have pain in your lower back, assume the worst. And then BE THE NICEST YOU CAN POSSIBLY BE to the first spinal surgeon you meet.

45. Steam opens up your pores. (Supposedly.)
46. If you think one gun and one bullet is going to stop them … think again.
47. If you need surgery, don't ask the doctor to do it for you. Plan a way to meet him or her in the middle of nowhere (make sure s/he brings some friends along), incapacitate the doctor with a tazer gun, put a potato sack on his or her head, lock the doctor up in an aquarium tank made for sharks and dolphins, torture the hell out of the doctor, and only when the doctor finally wants to do the surgery, you go ahead and accept. (This procedure makes HMOs look really good.)
48. Listening to Korean ghost stories in Korean is very funny.
49. Don't give anyone your kidney without asking questions first.
50. That guy who's a complete jerk to everyone is actually a tortured soul. You just need to waste your time and energy on him first.
51. If you thought someone was an evil ass before, just wait till you see him when he thinks he's in Hell.
52. If you're sleeping with a girl your boss likes, maybe you should be more suspicious when he sends you to infiltrate a group of plane tail section survivors.
53. having a southerner kill your father, or you’re the US marshall in charge of your arrest, will solve all you problems for one whole season.
54. Blood is easily obtainable by just jabbing someone in the arm. You don't have to find a vein
55. Small propeller planes can fly from Africa to the middle of the Pacific Ocean without refueling.
56. Tattoos are important symbol of your leadership.
57. Getting pounded in the chest for 5 whole minutes brings you back to life.
58. That you can live off of fish and seafood for a month and not get diarrhea.
59. That you can tramp around in a tropical jungle and still wear pants an NEVER complain about how hot it is.
60. That you can drink stagnant water and not get sick.
61. Some anesthesias are administered to the sternum with a really long needle.

A Bad Day
Okay,
Today was a very annoyng day. First I had a doctor's appointment. Which went fine (i guess) then I thought we (me and a few of my syblings) would have a fun time going to disneyland. problem was, every time I tried to do something I thought was fun, My older brother and sister went kind of crazy. And I'm thinkin' "gee, maybe disneland wasn't the best place to go for their kind of fun."
So we went on a few rides and to the innoventions center where we looked at some pretty interesting technology stuff. But after a while I got separated from them and my cell phone battery went dead. After walking around a couple of times, looking for my siblings, I thought I'd go to the exit to see if I could find them. I couldn't.
So I felt very stranded, I went to a payphone and made a call to my parent's house to ask if they could call my sister's cell to find out where she was. I paid 1.55 for the call and 1.99 for using my debit card, ghads!! So I start taking on the answering machine and NO ONE ANSWERES!!!
SHIT
"Come on guy's I only got three minutes for this call."
It' doesn't work
So I make ANOTHER call
Bear in mind, I have no idea where my siblings are. For all I know I will be sitting by the innoventions exit till the park closes and I have to ask a cast member to "help my find my family" >:(
This time I call my mother's cell phone, and as I dial, I remember that she is working tonight
SHIT
Remarkably she answeres the phone
I start talking
She doesn't respond...She can't even hear what I'm saying!!!!
After repeating "hello, Is anyone there?" a few times, she hangs up. Not knowing that I am practicly screaming "YES MOM IT'S ME I CAN HEAR YOU. PLEEEASSSSSE" But to no avail
I'm despret now, I am not going to spend my time at disneyland next to a payphone.
So I try a different payphone and call mom again.
FINALY we are able to talk. I tell her my predicament and she helps.
Well, I'm glad that's over. Except, It isn't over. I still have to wait to see IF my siblings show up to collect me. I see them comming down from the innoventions center door. They were in there the whole time!!! Where the heck were they??
So I'm guessing they were pretty annoyed with me or else weren't paying attention because my two older siblings bearly even looked at me and didn't talk to me.
WHAT the freakn' heck is wrong with them? Why are they acting like MINDLESS ZOMBIES today??
We eventally went to see the parade, which turned out to be fun. Sarah and I got some candy from the store and we got to eat some (well sarah did, I wated till I got home)
As we left disneyland, my older sister reminds me and my little sister to bequiet around other people. thanx mom
What it's not like were trying to have fun or anything. Please, I have to work tomorrow, can't I have a day off to do something wild and crazy?? No, I guess not.
Why are they acting so weird? This is supposed to be a fun time.
I slept most of the way home.
At home I decided I had given my siblings enough greef, and to not go on the internet while they were playing W.O.W. (which required a considerable amount of self restraint.) instead, I worked on my project LOST: The "Clean Cut" Edition. Eventally Rachel offers to watch LOST with me in the living room. WHich I thought would be way fun. I pick out one of my favorite episodes that I think she might like because it's semi-romantic and involves my favorite character. after a while she comes out and we watch... throughtout the episode I pause it to explain what is happening because she just can't go with the flow and let the story tell her what's ahappening. (because in lost, the episode usually tells you enough to see what's going on) anyway My older brother comes in toward the end and starts watching. He has no idea the context of the story because he missed the first three quarters. So after the episode is over my older sister says what she always says about this show "It's too hard to understand."
I felt like saying "OF COURSE it was too hard to understand, you are WATCHING the MIDDLE of the SECOND season of a SERIAL DRAMA, You can't expect to understand every aspect of the show. And guess what you don't NEED to understand because eventually you will see a flashback that explains everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-entire-episode. i would even go as so far as to say that you SHOULDN'T understand it because then Lost would be a boring 'plain-crash-suriver-with--paranormal-activity' Story, which it isn't it's a Serial Drama and it's a GREAT Serial Drama."
Fortunately, instead of saying this I start to say something like: "it was good." and then I was going to contineue saying WHY I thought it was good( WHICH BY THE WAY IS BECAUSE IT SHOWS HURLEY AS A CHRACTER OF DEPTH INSTEAD OF JUST COMIC RELEF) when I am rudley interupted by my older brother who says "it wasn't, it was dumb."
Seriously , I lost all will to communicate right there. It was obious that he wouldn't care about my reasoning as to why I liked it. Although I would do that for his interests. For example...Even though I hate robots,I did ask them what the robot show was like and that kind of sparked my curoiosity in this robot that my siblings were apperently intersted in. I don't have an interest in playing W.O.W, infact i think it's kind of a districtive activity, but I do ask them about what's going on in the game and I like to learn about all the interesting things they can do while playing it.
I guess this particular event got to me so much because it is remenicient of my whole life. Every time I try to contribute something, or ANYTHING, to a discussion at church or work, I feel like my hand gets nipped at. My opinion never counts. So, I called him a rude name and walked out.
I guess I kind of regret that now.
I guess my interest in LOST isn't something I'll be able to share with my family. It king of sucks because I think it's really interesting and I see my own flaws in some of the characters, and I think they could enjoy that same kind of thing.
P.(M).S
I'm Sorry about the bad grammar and profanity, i'm Just so mad right now. I know that's not a good excuse but it's the only one I can think of right now.
maybe this will help me cool down.....

Fortunately, instead of saying this I start to say something like: "it was good." and then I was going to contineue saying WHY I thought it was good( WHICH BY THE WAY IS BECAUSE IT SHOWS HURLEY AS A CHRACTER OF DEPTH INSTEAD OF JUST COMIC RELEF) when I am rudley interupted by my older brother who says "it wasn't, it was dumb."
Seriously , I lost all will to communicate right there. It was obious that he wouldn't care about my reasoning as to why I liked it. Although I would do that for his interests. For example...Even though I hate robots,I did ask them what the robot show was like and that kind of sparked my curoiosity in this robot that my siblings were apperently intersted in. I don't have an interest in playing W.O.W, infact i think it's kind of a districtive activity, but I do ask them about what's going on in the game and I like to learn about all the interesting things they can do while playing it.
I guess this particular event got to me so much because it is remenicient of my whole life. Every time I try to contribute something, or ANYTHING, to a discussion at church or work, I feel like my hand gets nipped at. My opinion never counts. So, I called him a rude name and walked out.
I guess I kind of regret that now.
I guess my interest in LOST isn't something I'll be able to share with my family. It king of sucks because I think it's really interesting and I see my own flaws in some of the characters, and I think they could enjoy that same kind of thing.
P.(M).S
I'm Sorry about the bad grammar and profanity, i'm Just so mad right now. I know that's not a good excuse but it's the only one I can think of right now.
maybe this will help me cool down.....
