I think of Firefly every time I see a promo for some second-rate series like Tremors or Andromeda...

every time I see the SciFi channel buying series that have already been cancelled - Tracker, Cleo 2525...

every time I realize that "quality" has now become one of those 7 words you can't say on TV...

every time I am forced to admit that I hold no interest for TPTB because I can tell the difference between gold and dross.

Was at the store a little while ago getting supplies for family easter shindig tomorrow and had to fetch marshmallows for fruit salad. And they're in the same section as baking stuff. And I thought "Wow. What Kaylee could have done with all this flour." Then thinking that I know some Browncoats who would love to see this much flour.

We got new critters at the museum yesterday including two baby prarie dogs, a male and a female. They haven't been named yet. They would fight and then love on each other, then wrestle, then love on each other some more, and on and on. I suggested Wash and Zoe and nobody got it. But, I'm sticking to my guns.

Ooh, baby prairie dogs! That sounds really cute!
Uh, yeah. I was thinking of Firefly on Tuesday when I watched Buffy. Watching Nathan Fillion as Caleb in "Dirty Girls," I found myself saying, "Oh, Mal! What are you doing!" Now I can't watch any pivotal Mal moment without thinking of Caleb. Argh.

I dyed an Easter egg purple and my mind went straight to Kaylee saying “But Captain did you hear what those purple bellies called Serenity?” Then I promptly threw my purple belly egg in our annual egg tossing contest... hit my car too.

Started a new Amazon in DiabloII and just couldn't think of a name. Needed it to be cool and kick ass but "Zoe" just wasn't right. She's YoSafBridge!

Couple of weeks ago, adopted two "fancy" mice (all the wild ones we'd captured in the kitchen had lived out long, happy, well-fed lives in a tank filled with shiny stuff to climb and play with, and no new ones have appeared [many neighbors with cats]...so we went for their domesticated city cousins). The wife insisted on naming the creamy-off-white one Francesca. I, of course, thought that her sister, a spry, inquisitive little soul ("...big world..."), should carry the name, Kaylee.

She's easy to spot; she's the one with the brown coat!

number of browncoats seen in my home town, Starbuck, Minnesota, over Easter weekend? well, not brown--Dad's shade-tree mechanic jacket is khaki with a brown collar, though, and a girl whose khaki long coat that looked a lot like the Zoe's.

tried to use "all manner of" in place of "all kinds of" in a sentence, but my cousin didn't get it. actually she only gets me half the time, but i guess i need to show her the episodes again.

a line from Sweet Home Alabama; "Don't be lettin' all the bought air out." aside from the syntax, it reminded me of Jayne.

my brother, Jay , who took down Dad's Remington pump-action shotgun, cycled it, peered down the barrel to check the site, then put it back on the gun rack and felt compelled to explain why he just does that. he also told me the story about how Dad temporarily lost the gun in a lake, which is why when they clean it, they still find some bits of sand.

he hasn't seen Firefly yet, but he's gonna.

Ran across a reference today to a new micro-barcoding system being developed which is small enough to barcode DNA molecules. My first thought - "A government imprint on every molecule". That's scarier now than it was when Mal first said it.
