Wheat Thins Crunch Stix?!

Back in May, after substituting Wheat Thins for a more substantial lunch due to extreme busy-ness, I began a conversation on Twitter about crackers.

I’ll leave the heavy “Lost” commentary to people getting paid to write it, but that won’t keep me from highlighting my favorite thing the final season has led to: “Lost” Comics!

WARNING! “Lost” spoilers ahead! Tread lightly, pilgrim, and only move on past here… IF YOU DARE!

Doctor… Who? Or, proof all Brits are connected to British Fiction… in their real lives!

The answer is, of course, “Absolutely.”
