I respond to whichever ones interests me, If I'm not responding to any one in particular I either respond to the first, as it is that person's thread, or check the Override notification box.

I started watching Firefly on the Space Network here in Canada and was hooked immediately. I have been a trekker for over 30 years and I've chucked it all aside to become a Browncoat. It doesn't take long before one feels that the shows characters are like your old friends. Now by joining this website I have made new friends who definately understand me. Members of my own family think I'm just going through a phase but I'm here to stay. I hope that in years from now we'll all be discussing the latest Firefly movie.
I hope it has a long healthy run and I'm going to do my part to spread the word.
Love Lalara

I'm glad you think it's so shiny here; that's because it is! :) There is something endlessly fulfilling about being with people who know exactly where you're at.

In any other corner of the 'verse (how many corners does a 'verse have anyway?; well, never mind that) you get flamed, people are crude, wars rage on for days, and you have to be real guarded with your thoughts; and especially around your emotions.

But this end of the 'verse, here you join the table, around the gas-light, and they invite you like an old friend. They understand, they comprehend. You're on their crew. Where people say: "No need to say anything, but tell me all about it!"

Like attracts like. That is why I, like you, like you. :) (wait! ... yes, it makes sense).

Welcome!

Hi, SaveWash,

We are mighty glad to have you join our crew.

You get the pic with your name when you go to
MyFirefly at the top and pick one. They are kinda down at the bottom of the page of options that you have.

It doesn't matter which one you post to, you'll get the hang of it after awhile.

You copy and paste or type what it says to the left to insert emoticons. They are fun.

Hope you'll post often, we love to talk here.

" You hold. Hold til I get back." Mal

Yeah the people here are nice. We all have a connection because of firefly.

That is, unless you say something like
"I voted for Bush".
Then they start bitting you in the ass. hehe.

Wash: Yeah, but psychic? That sounds like science fiction.
Zoë: You live on a spaceship, dear.
Wash: So?

It is known that there are infinite things in the 'verse, but not all of them have corners, thus the number of corners must be finite. Any finite number over infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds so the average number of corners per thing in the 'verse is zero. It quickly follows that the total number of corners in the 'verse is zero.

Any corner you encounter is clearly the product of a deranged imagination.

Let us all bow our heads in a prayer of thanks to the deranged imagination that created this one.

(Bonus points if you know what all but the last line is mimicking.)

Hehe,

Douglas Adams, "The Restaurant at the End of the Universe" :)

So, as for that corner-in-space thingy, I guess we'll have to call it "early quantum state phenomenon".

Thanks, FollowMal. I tried the avatar and even though I clicked on the button below the picture and updated my profile, I'm still not getting the avatar up there. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Oh, I love to talk, too! (Or type, as the case may be.)

Eek! It's my first time trying a quote! I hope I did it right.

You did just fine! And your avatar is showing up... Wash right? I don't know why you aren't seein' it. Hmmmm. Log out, then log back in maybe.... dunno.

Talk all you want.. type all you want. We love lively conversations around here.

Guess what? You thought you did both things wrong, but you did them both right. :) Quotes worked okay, and your avatar shows.
