Any speculation on why Jack only had 1 bottle of vodka instead of 2?
Variability in how things happen on each iteration.
I think it's this variability that supports Jacob's point that people have choices and that what has happened does not always have to happen that way.

During my rewatch of Season 2 I also found the reappearance of Yemi to be very important. Right off the bat I realized that Yemi was MIB. When he appears to Eko in the hatch, he of course was wearing his all black priest uniform and he tells Eko (paraphrasing) "What has happened has happened" - straight up MIB talk. It was the reappearance of Yemi that motivated Eko to get John to go find the Swan station, which in turn made Locke lose his faith about the island (thinking that people in the hatch were subjects of a psychological experiment), which in turn made Locke not want to enter the numbers anymore, which lead to the hatch exploding, which lead to the island being discovered by the outside world, which lead to the Kahana arriving.... (I could go on and on but you catch my drift)
MIB impersonating Yemi was one of MIB's strongest moves.
Great insight. This show has been planned out ridiculously well.

Everyone at one point has thought MIB was the one trapped in the cabin by the ash. But smokie shows up before they ever find the cabin and hurley breaks the circle. And why does the soni fence keep him out? What's so special or who/what are the super ashes from?
Your guess is as good as mine. I'm pretty certain though that they will explain exactly what happened when Locke and Ben went in the Cabin. They've been bringing it up recently, so I think the writers intend to answer it.

I'm rewatching the episode and I get the feeling that Jack (on the plane) knows something. Just the way he looks and act. Anyone know why he had blood on his neck?

Fits in with the idea I've seen posted that in each subsequent iteration you take something with you, whether it be information or scars and whatnot. It would explain how Jack seemingly knew where the beach was, as if by instinct, after the original crash.

Remember... the Devil is a fallen Angel, not the equal counterpart to God. I would say that if the Nemesis turns out to be the Devil, then Jacob should in turn be another Angel... not God himself.
Interesting... could this mean Jacob's job is to keep MIB there?

Having spent this past year ramping up on this great series, amazingly I found this site to have the most knowledgable and patient fans on the subject of Lost.
Until I came across this response to someones question. Of course it comes from an Ole Piss fan.
There are plenty of message boards out there for pompous Lost "experts" like you to show off. I suggest you go find one, and belittle people there.
The rest of you, thanks for helping a novice like myself, understand the most confusing(and greatest) TV show of all time.

MAYBE... the issue is not that MIB is being kept on the island, but he is being kept out of some place he considers home.

Bingo
The temple = home for the MIB.

If you're MIB, after you emerge from the big foot and go kick Richard Alpert's arse, why don't you kill every single one of those guys (including Alpert, and Ben) as the smoke monster and then transform back into Locke?

I'm thinking MIB = Satan/Mephistopheles/Beelzebub/The Devil/J.R. Ewing and the place Jacob is keeping him out of is Heaven.

i assume MIB needs the others to set a trap of some sort

Why? They are no real threat to him. Perhaps they will be useful later. Thank goodness Frodo didn't kill Gollum, eh?

I am telling you guys that at some point this season we will all question whether the MIB is actually a bad guy or just misguided...
I feel it coming

I hope they don't go w/ the existentialist approach. I want more of an evil bad guy to hate more.
