It’s still the 17th in my time zone, so TECHNICALLY this isn’t late… Sorry, real life was very insistent today. Anyway, here are some great #LOST tweets from Thursday and yesterday, since yesterday’s post was the "Everybody Loves Hugo" Reactions Edition. As has been the pattern lately, we begin with tweets from LOST production, starting with an announcement:
CarltonCuse - LOST LIVE: The Final Celebration. Royce Hall, Los Angeles. May 13. More details soon.
1:38 PM Apr 15thWHAT??!! Come on, we need more info! Well, until then, enjoy this great video:

10:33 PM Apr 15thTo kick off the LOST in Real Life section, you need to know that Thursday April 15 was Major League Baseball’s Jackie Robinson Day and that all of the players wore his number, 42, during the games:
YaGottaBKiddnMe - Hey look. #42 just got a single, and #42 scooped it up, threw it to #42, but not before #42 scored. And the pitcher's number? 42.
#LOST!!!
11:18 AM Apr 15thIn fact this tweeter was on a real roll on Thursday:

9:05 PM Apr 15thHopefully you’ve had a chance to check out @Loster21's Tweets O' the Day Special Edition Behind the Scenes Photos by Asst. Editor Chris Braun that I posted on Thursday. One of the pictures was of Chris’s desk and it shows his laptop open to LOSTblog. I loved the picture so much that I make it my laptop’s desktop, and I tweeted a photo of it. In reply, the AMAZING Mr. Braun tweeted a picture back:
