When I tell a hooker to wear a long black wig and call me Mal, should I blame Joss?

It seems like Inara is pretty great, and maybe prostitution should be legalized.

He looked bigger when I couldn't see him.

god I love you guys. Yes--I think you should take pictures of YOU and the Inara-hooker and send 'em on over to Joss--I'm sure he would be quite sympathetic. Don't send 'em the pics of the hooker dressed as Simon, though...that might weird him out.

Prostitution yay--let's lobby to legalize it. Mostly in space

Just a humble supplicant in service to all things Joss

Do you mean we should fly into space and lobby for legalized prostitution or do you mean we should fly to the moon for sex?

The space program would have more support if they realized there's no laws established on other planets that would every hold weight. Hence, no laws banning lunar prostitution. In fact, it would be quite quite legal.
That would be a good start... see if Las Vegas & Reno hotel corporations can front the cash for some good ole' houses of ill repute in the sea of tranquility. No FDA regulations or work standards to base the pay scale or health codes.
Maybe they'd get some special credit cards made up with little incentives like frequent flyer miles for lunar shuttle trips and room upgrades for earthside views.
All very shiny and happy, no?

Didn't Joss have a term for these people? Spookers, wasn't it? Space + hookers.

I don't know if it promote's prostitution. However I remember seeing a Pepsi commercial aired during a broadcast of Firefly back when it was on the air. So I'd say it promotes Pepsi.

As for Prostitution, if a healthy, and respectified approach to whoring is called promotion, then you could say it also promotes ministers, mechanics, smugglers, doctors, and crazy girls. But not sell out mercenaries with big guns and a small brain. (I told my little sister that if she ever did drugs and joined the marines she'd end up like Jayne. She told me to leave her alone or she'd kill me with her brain.)

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I was referring to the DVD set.

I say going to the moon for sex is fine, but B jobs should still be allowed on earth.
