I think I had cockles once...I'm better now.

It's an old expression: It warms the cockles of my heart.

The line that's rolling around in your head probably got snagged on a protruding neuron and has been hiding out since grade school. It's a St. Patty's day song about Molly Malone. I forget most of it, but she's a fish seller that sings cockles (shellfish) and mussels, alive alive-o. I think she's waiting for her true love to come back from sea.

For the rest a y'all:

Let's see how far we can get our Browncoats marching!

The browncoats go marching five by five,
hurrah, hurrah
The browncoats go marching five by five,
hurrah, hurrah
The browncoats go marching five by five,
To let them know we're still alive,
And we all go marching down into the streets
To hold our ground.

The browncoats go marching six by six,
hurrah, hurrah
The browncoats go marching six by six,
hurrah, hurrah
The browncoats go marching six by six,
So you know who to call when you're in a fix,
And we all go marching down into the streets
To hold our ground.


(please, no rotten tomatos!)

Keep Flyin'

And about Sarah, she'll show when she's ready.

I love this place. Tell me where you can talk about cockles and get away with it.

Maniac turns to Succatash with his head slightly hung, "I am patient as the leaves on the trees waiting to fall," he whispers. "But we cannot wait with the parliament-like silence of the trees," Succatash responds. "Vigilance! The war will continue, and we will win."



Hell yes we will!

And all y'all have done me proud! Especially Wulf and you, Maniac. Secret poets you are.

This fight ain't over. Not by a long damn sight.

Big kisses again.

And "When Johnny Comes Marching Home" is getting a little out of hand.

Comic stories, valiant tales, marching music, little laughter, poetry, cheers, and...cockles? What is going on with this crazy thread???

This thread is the most beautiful thread in the world.

This thread is your thread, this thread is my thread,
From the Canton planet, to the Arial moon,
To the land of Patience, to the Reaver borders,
this thread is made for you and me


Has YOUR mom seen Firefly, lately?

We've all lost our minds. This thread has single handedly caused us to lose our minds.
I blame it on the poems and songs...and the cockle. Wait, isn't that a bird?
