There are close ups of the speech bubbles on lostARGs.com: http://www.lostargs.com/2009/08/special-delivery.html
--
About the anagram, Ian may be right that the capitol 'I' on actuallyitsketchup.com is a roman numeral 'one.' The site released yesterday has the address: http://thatandbasketweaving.com/dcpb/II/ - a roman numeral
'two.'

So separating the letters by where we found them we now have:
From spaces:
i, s, t, a, s, n, t, h, o, f
Missing letters:
t (in 'there')
From addresses:
i, x, I, II
Elsewhere:
E (from THEEE Mike)

What do the speech bubbles on the picture say?

My guess is that it's the beginning of a word or sentence, but we're going to have to wait for more sites and clues before this anagram comes together and makes sense.

The "i" from actuallyitsketchup.com is a capital, all the other letters aren't. Does this mean it is the first letter of a sentence or is it supposed to be the Roman number 1?

2009-08-19T21:03:27.898-04:00

Just to recap the last three posts, the letters that stick out are:

e, x, i, s, t, a, s, i, n, t, h, o, f, t

OR

existasinthoft

I see "exit" and "exist" in there. And, yes, there could be "station" and "shift," too. Then again, I can also see "taxi" and "host" and "shaft" and all kinds of words.

So, let's crack this anagram!

In the last blog post from damoncarltonandapolarbear.com, which I have saved, it links to

(which now redirects back to the main dcpb site).

Tom,

To add fuel to your fire: in the nightclub poster, there were three "e's" in THEEE Mike when it should be THEE MIKE. So, you have to put an "e" into the mix.

There are bunch of words with weird spaces between their letters at the bottom of the Hurley Poster page and elsewhere on Scheer’s site. How about making some anagrams out of the letters surrounding the spaces. The phrases are as follows:

by s taying in
long a s you’re
combine shippi ng costs
and ot her minor
nature o f this
project, here will (Missing ‘t’)

stasinthoft

I think the best one we get is “shift staton” – which made me think we’re missing some sort of clue about an “i” somewhere. So I started thinking homonym-style because “shift station” would be a pretty cool hidden clue – which is what I think may be going on with the Temple and travelling between two timelines/realities. Maybe our missing “i” comes from the LOST motif of the eye popping open. The eye snapping open and pupil dilating, could be a moment of season 6 where main characters shoot back into the correct timeline. Meg flies through Progonoskes’ eye countless times in L’Engle’s “A Wind in the Door.” And maybe we’re all nuts and just reaching for nonexistant clues…but that wouldn’t be any fun.

Then, I remembered the address bar for the Hurley poster – http://actuallyitsketchup.com/dcpb/I/. It has a random capital letter “I” latched onto the end of it for no apparent reason. What if that’s our final missing letter, completing the clue, and finally giving us “Shift Station.” Our cryptic answer to what may be going on in the Temple, or at least a place somewhere on the island our timeline jumpers need to visit in the first half of the Final Season. What do you think?

TEMPLE = SHIFT STATION

I tend to agree with Brian. This guy is so loud and, well, kind of annoying. I guess there's not much else to focus on right now...

2009-08-18T01:54:22.452-04:00

My initial reaction to this "ARG" is that it is indeed stupid and this seems to be just another piece of marketing, as another pointed out above. Just because Darlton have appeared in this business doesn't mean it has anything to do with the content of Season 6, or the mysteries of the island. Lost's ratings have gone down, but the one way that ABC is able to make money is by milking the fans, counting on them to buy DVDs, replica Dharma jumpsuits, and other such crap.

However, I'm trying to look beyond that and see if there's anything going on here that is significant. One person mentioned the sandaled foot on Hurley's shirt. I don't think that is a reference to the statue - it's a reference to his mother hitting the curb when she gets out of Hurley's car, when they are about to see her new home, which happens to be on fire.

The only way I can see, now, this stuff having any bearing on the show is if art happens to play a big role in the final season. We have seen paintings of ships, dogs, and other island-related topics within the show. But this seems very doubtful.

Let's get back to the rewatch, shall we?

You guys are not using your esteemed powers of observation & deduction - as well as one would expect. Has anybody looke at this piece of art?
Has nobody else seen the sandaled foot on Hurley's shirt - and cartoon indicators that would suggest that (Hurley) this might be the achilles heel?

What a great idea. I like it a lot but if I'm going to buy one, I want to see the other designs first. I hope there's a Jacob, Nemesis, Smoke Monster screen-print. That would be brilliant.
