[spoiler=:1yrds7mx]I don't know if Widmore has cancer...that was just a guess on my part. Trying to come up with some reason why he is interested in the island.[/spoiler:1yrds7mx]

A wealthy industrialist with ties to the Hanso Foundation who discovers a magic island with healing properties? Gee, I wonder why he might be interested.

Yeah Doc..I know, I know...[spoiler=:3e5myfaa]but do you think its just a coinky dink that Desmond was on that island? Does Widmore KNOW that Desmond is on the island? Is that why he wants everyone of the island to die? But if Desmond was the issue, why wouldn't he just kill him...why does he need to kill EVERYONE? Assuming he wants the island for its magic...how would it be all that helpful to him unless other people found out about it anyway? At some point he's going to have to tell some people so he can charge them an arm and leg (literally) to go to it, right? I've been working for the tourist industry for too long.[/spoiler:3e5myfaa]

[spoiler=:2t2k4dar]That mofo Michael came back to the island to die! TSIFU! I knew as soon as he said that, it was gonna turn out the island was keeping him alive.[/spoiler:2t2k4dar]

Plus, the spoiler of the day, one that you guys would never see coming:

[spoiler=:2t2k4dar]I would rock Alex's world--I'm for real, I would do some serious serious damage to that right there. I'm so for real. [img]{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif[/img] All night. Two times. Make it three.[/spoiler:2t2k4dar]

^^^ No shit, did you see those lips when they closed in on her face? She's a lot yummier than I previously thought.

Mom7, I think Widmore probably knows that Desmond is on the island - but he doesn't care. In fact, I think one popular theory is that Widmore arranged for Libby to give the sailboat to Desmond so he could find the island (keep in mind this was 3 years ago), but when Desmond failed to return he had to resort to other means.
