What we’ve been up to (or, what we’re saying we’ve been up to).
There are plenty of mysteries regarding the DHARMA Initiative: their (real) origins, their (real) goals, etc. But, while I wonder about these questions, I trust that they’ll be answered before Lost concludes next year. The Lost puzzles that keep me up at night are of a more mundane nature: Where the heck are the supply [...]
Lost returns tonight after a one-week break. Why not celebrate the occasion by baking a DHARMA Initiative cake? It’s easy—all you need is some oil, water, eggs, and DI Cake Mix. You can always use regular, store-bought cake mix, of course, but be aware that DHARMA Initiative Cake Mix is engineered to not fall in [...]
In these tough financial times, it’s important for non-profit organizations, even large ones like the Hanso Foundation, to maximize scarce budget resources. So, while the DHARMA Initiative will continue its commitment to research in the fields of meteorology, psychology, parapsychology, zoology, electromagnetism, and Utopian social ideals, cost-cutting measures in other areas are an unfortunate consequence [...]
…DHARMA Initiative Cubeecraft. The fine folks at Cubeecraft have applied their paper-cutifying technology to the realm of DHARMA Initiative labels. The result, as downloaded, printed, cut out, and folded, is pictured above. Three advantages of the DI Cubeecraft vs. Max Pictures’ DI product labels: Cubeecraft requires no tape or glue; everything tabs together Cubeecraft requires [...]
With the Losties stuck on a tropical island surrounded by waters teeming with fish you’d think they’d have no need for canned tuna. But, there are actually many good reasons to have DHARMA Initiative Tuna on hand. Tuna is a deep sea fish. If the survivors could have easily gotten far enough away from the [...]
Eat DHARMA Iniatiative Oats. There seems to be a preponderance of unhealthy foods in the DHARMA Initiative line of products: ranch dressing; candy bars; chili; macaroni and cheese; 3-ring binders; etc. But, do not take this as a sign that the Hanso Foundation is not interested in healthy lifestyles—far from it. The DHARMA Initiative wants [...]
Lost is back. According to the show’s producers, Season 5 begins the rush to the show’s end (Season 6 ends the series) and we’ll supposedly start to get more answers to Lost’s countless mysteries. This penultimate season should also be more action-packed as the characters’ various crisscrossing stories come crashing together, canceling each other out, [...]
It’s just hours now until Lost kicks off its 2009 season—hopefully you have some suitable Lost-themed festivities planned for the event. But, even if you’re not hosting a star-studded Hollywood bash or a fanboy-encrusted living room viewing party, there’s no reason not to enjoy a quiet, DHARMA Initiative-supplied dinner during the 3-hour Season 5 premiere. [...]
The countdown for Lost’s Season 5 premiere continues (you’re counting down, right?)—just three days left now. For those of you looking for premiere night party supplies, the Hanso Foundation has added a new product: DHARMA Initiative Guacamole Dip (11.5 OZ) The dip isn’t showing up in supply drops yet, though, so if you need some [...]
Our long, hard winter of discontent is nearly over—Lost Season 5 begins January 21st. This leaves roughly five days to stock up on DHARMA Initiative food and drink for the three-hour premiere (a one-hour clip show followed by two one-hour episodes). Be prepared. In case you have trouble scheduling a Hanso Foundation supply drop you [...]
