I'm working on a list of Firefly Vid Websites to help all of us share the joy. If you want it let me know and I'll email it to you, or if enough people want it, I'll post it here. There are about 94+ vids located on the sites I've found. Please see my Live Journal:

I think I have found a cook. She says her name is Serenity, but given all circumstance you can see why I might feel weird calling her that. I sent her a messege telling her she was welcome aboard. I still need a pilot and engineer. I can get by without all the others, but I hope some one will contact me if they want aboard. This is a good ship. I've been looking around on how to fix up a few little faults all around. But when I got him he was practically new. I hope I'll be able to get a full crew within the week, 'cause I can't really take off without'em. I've gotten a few books for the long voyages, and I just realized just how boring it could get without a large crew. Gratitude is a big ship, and I think he's begging to be filled up with all sorts of people and cargo. See ya --Captain of Gratitude -Symon

Hello all. I've been lurking here for a while and continue to be impressed with the people posting here. I haven't seen the usual idiotic messages in all caps exclaiming that KAYLEE TOTALLY ROCKS! (which she does) Nice bunch of people here, by my reckoning. Anyway, I was just thinking.... 1) I notice that there is an unusually high proportion of female fans compared to most sci-fi shows. What is it about Firefly that appeals to the women folk? Firefly does tend to focus more on character and relationships than your average Star Trek episode. Or, perhaps it's the Captain's tight pants. 2) I made my first recuit this week. She was a tough one. She doesn't watch tv and is much more interested in mountain biking and snowboarding than space westerns. I set up a projector and a laptop at work and let her watch the first two episodes over a series of lunch breaks. Once she had watched those two episodes she could decide if she wanted to watch more. She wasn't completely sold on the series after those two (Serenity and Train Job), but expressed an interest in Simon and River, so I showed the 'Safe' episode next. She then said she didn't like Jayne much, so we ran 'Jaynestown' next. Other than her unfortunate habit of calling our canibalistic friends from the edge of the galaxy 'Reefers' ( "Dude, I totally got the munchies. Can we do the flesh eating first this time?") she's become an avid fan of the show. In what order do you recommend new viewers watch the Firefly episodes? Do you stay with the order of the DVDs, or do you hit them with the best episodes first? 3) While I accept the possibility that the BDM will have sound in space ( doesn't really bother me), there is something poetical about watching the ships move about in silence. 4) Does anyone else's heart skip a beat when they hear fiddle music now? Anyway that's enough for my first post. Later.

My friends, it has come to my attention that the Alliance in our beloved show are wearing used armor and such from Starship Troopers! I don't know if this is true, but it does have a similar appearance. Hope You'll Help me with this one!
