Not All Who Wander: America's Loss of Faith

Men Are Rugged. Women Have Nice Legs. Very Like Life, No? No? From the Mailbag:

You haven't commented on Lost yet.  What is your interpretation?

Life's surreal.

Then you die.

Which is cool, because this sends the ratings up spectacularly, somebody (though not necessarily you) makes a huge profit by selling detergent and toilet paper, other people are entertained, and everybody wins.

Except you.

You die.

But a well-made show, there's no doubt.  We need religion of this sort.

America will now spiral into isolation and the dollar will plummet against the yen and rupee as we search for meaning after Lost.
