Not really that they used. What I did do was that I liked to nickname people just for fun, and I was hanging out with Damon, I don't know if that was part of his original thing or not, it probably was because Damon and JJ are brilliant, but we were hanging out before (because Damon wanted to get to know the cast so he could write for our personalities). so during that time I gave everybody a nickname, so Maggie Grace had these long legs so everybody called her "sticks." And then anytime would fuck something up, I would laugh and say "there's an eagle in every seagull, you'll make it, just keep flying." So it was just kind of like that, and it just started rolling so people liked it and Damon was just great at it. But I was afraid of some of the nicknames they liked, like I had to call Jorge Stay-Puft which I thought was a little harsh. I remember making an actor's choice there, I felt so self-conscious about saying that to him that I wanted our scene to be comedy a bit, so I asked the props for children's sunglasses so they gave me some children's sunglasses to wear, I think they were yellow-y and had teddybears or something on it. So I'm reading on the beach when Jorge approaches me to ask me something, and I call him Stay-Puft, and it was funny because I was wearing children's sunglasses and it looked ridiculous. So it kind of worked.

One of my favorite scenes to film in Lost were the cage scenes. I thought they were well-done, and it's interesting to be separated by something, have a barrier between you and the other actor, it's just an interesting element.

YEAH! Had a blast. Who doesn't like blowing up a room with paintball?

Haha! I find myself on both their teams. They are both valid. They are opposite spectrums of the same guy.

The Juliet dying in my arms scene was the hardest. And I had to film it twice, due to technical problems that entire day. It sucked. It was awesome working with the two of them, I love them both. They can both bring the heat. First scene I shot in Lost was shooting the polar bear and stuff. They were trekking through the woods right there. And that began the love triangle. Did I like the end? Yes and no. I think it was an impossible story to wrap up in an episode. It was an almost impossible show to wrap up. I liked all the raft because we actually had to sail the raft, we were left out there, they towed us out with a boat, we had a sail and then they let us go. We were two miles offshore sailing that fucker for real. And that was really epic, where you realized you're actually out there sailing this makeshift raft. That raft thing, with the favorite scene. I also liked the sitting around the campfire scenes with Matthew a lot because we both bring the heat, so it was fun.

OH YES, I'm remembering. I got the book, thank you so much, and I loved Prague. I love the architecture because it goes back to the 9th century, it was one of the only cities not bombed by Hitler so it is incredible as far as architecture and history.
