Web site Blog Is the New Black had a humorous article on the unfortunate robbery of Josh Holloway. Perhaps it's a bit insensitive to make light of such a traumatic event, but I think it was just all in good fun. Plus it had me in stitches. Were the Numbers to blame? Read to find out or go to

"Sawyer Robbed at Gunpoint by the Others. Crazy French Woman, Monster and Black People Among Top Suspects.
Zap2it.com is reporting that LOST star JOSH HOLLOWAY (a.k.a. SAWYER) was robbed at gunpoint yesterday in his Honolulu home, confirming once and for all that there really are OTHERS on the island.
Holloway says he believes the thief was a crazed acolyte of his cult TV show, on the search for the significance of the series' infamous and all-powerful Numbers: 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42.
"It's no coincidence," Holloway says, "that this guy showed up at 4 A.M."
Holloway says the robber interrogated him and his wife for about 8 minutes, asking repetedly "What is in the Hatch?" Holloway told him that the Hatch's contents had already been revealed over the course of the past three episodes, but apparently the robber hadn't gotten to them on his Tivo yet.
The robber made out with 15 of the couple's credit cards, $108 in cash and Holloway's MERCEDES BENZ 190 2.3 16V COSWORTH, but not before Holloway - in true Sawyer fashion - gave him a hilarious, folksy nickname.
Local police are apparently confounded by the case, and have enlisted the help of series scribes DAMON LINDELOF and J.J. ABRAMS, who have been so successful at breaking down the mysteries on the Island of their ABC drama series.
"If those guys can figure out what's in the Hatch, they can crack this case," one police officer said.
The LOST co-creators said they were happy to oblige and felt awful for putting Holloway in this position:
"We knew we shouldn't have opened that damn Hatch!" Abrams said.
Lindelof and Abrams are already hard at work with fictional island shaman LOCKE trying to track down the robber. ABC honchos say that even if Locke is successful in finding Holloway's assailant, the identity of the robber will still be held for November sweeps.
Holloway and his wife said the robber was about 23 years old, 5-foot-8 and was wearing a gray or black shirt and a baseball cap. No leads as of yet, but as a precaution, Locke and police have already arrested the most likely suspects: series regulars HARROLD PERRINEAU, MALCOLM DAVID KELLEY and ADEWALE AKINNUOYE-AGBAJE.
