In a way, the “Lost” island — with its cliques, secret crushes and occasionally long-winded lessons about physics — has always been a little like high school. So with the series coming to an end, what better way to honor our favorite characters than by selecting “Lost” superlatives?
Vote for the Lostie who most deserves each of the titles below, then come back on Monday, May 24 — the day after the “Lost” finale — to see who was selected as the winner in each category. And if the high school yearbook vibe moves you to print out this page so the Smoke Monster can sign it — “Have a hot summer, but keep cool. Love, Smokey” — by all means, be our guest.

Disney Petition: The Epic Journey Comes To An End
For those of you who don’t know the particulars: LOSTblog’s very own Jon was the “hard core” LOST fan behind the Petition to ABC/Disney for LOST Themed Ride. I suggested to Jon that since I was in Hawa’i and definitely going to the beach premiere, I’d be happy to try to present the petition to Damon and Carlton if I could. Jon thought that might be cool, so once the signature reached a total of 4815, he sent me the file, I created a binder and we did everything we could to infiltrate the very thick layer of peeps around Team Darlton.
Long story short, we ALMOST got it to them! Karen from Karen’s Lost Notebook hung out with me behind the screen while we waited for “official” word about what was to be. Karen did “make it in” with the petition in hand, but in the hurry and chaos of scooting all the VIPs off the beach after the premiere ended, she couldn’t connect with Damon and Carlton. [Many, many thanks to Karen for giving it a go! We appreciate your participation and enthusiasm!]
Undaunted, and irked, I reconnected with a very kind ABC publicity peep (the ABC spokesperson who contributed to the brief write up I did of the premiere) via email, and she offered to receive the petition in the mail and make sure it got sent directly to our boys. Today I got email confirmation that, YES, that darn thing made it to Darlton’s offices. No word on any personal reaction or any public comments about the petition. HOWEVER, I’m definitely proud that Paul Scheer brought up the LOST ride idea at the Paley fest! (I’m also happy they think it’s as funny as we do!)
I did two things to present the petition. I put everything in a 3 ring-ed binder and made up a front cover, and I made a poster out of images we’re using at the LOSTblog shop on cafepress.com.
