How did we manage to forget this?!?

Did you see him today saying that he'd have to call Joss and tell him, and then said "If I call him he'll never answer my calls again" Whahahahaha...

Please give us the site where we unlucky ones that couldn't go to Dragon con can order the lanyards. I have to wear an id badge at work and can't wait to see your shiny design!!!!


A BIG shout out to all of the Dragon Con reporting. It really makes a difference when you are sitting at home wishing you had sold your car so you could go but knowing you needed your car to go to work. My car is probably older than Serenity but it knows I love it so it keeps on flying.

Happy Holiday Weekend! Elaine

Please! Nobody died last time!

Um, well, neither did I!

Maybe it's my doppelganger, or I'm doing a bit of OOB travel...

(Actually, I think somebody ASS-U-MEd.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nope, no assumption, just a plain ol' mis-take.
Someone else whom I respect just as much posted
about attending, and I got all corn-fused.
But there remains the potential OOB...might give it a shot my ownself.
See you there?



bun, meditatively

Yes, lanyards, please!

And, I second that shout-out! It's right shiny what y'all are doing for those of us stuck at home, and we sure do appreciate it!

Wow, thank you for the response! You can order a lanyard at our website below. There are roughly 150+ sayings that you can order, listed by episode. We accept paypal. We won't be home until Tuesday night sometime, and need a day or two to recup. Any orders will be shipped out no later than next Monday (the 11th).

Thanks!

PS--The Masquerade was painful to watch this year. *sigh* Too much crap, not enough fun. The grand winner overall, though, was a ballerina who dressed as the hippo from Fantasia and danced with a stuffed alligator. That was a cute one, as well as the Stormtrooper Janitors. When I get my DVD, I'll post stills.

BTW, Just saw that Guy with the storm Trooper Uniform, wearing a Burger King Head (More like a BIG Partial wrap around mask)


Also Saw a storm trooper wearing a Jayne Hat on his storm trooper helmet :) AND saw another storm trooper wearing a Jamaican Hat with dred-locks hanging out of it.

And I don't know WHAT some of these folks are supposed to be... I think they just wait all year to cross-dress or be super freaky... And what's with all the "little school girl with their underwear showing" costumes? Anime or something, but it seems popular (For the ones wearing that much clothing ;)

I keep running into Ellen Tighe from BSG, and Jason from TAPS (Ghost Hunters).. Jason's lost a LOT of weight.. haven't seen Grant much, he lays low in his hotel room I think.

According to "The Daily Dragon" this was Summer's First trip to Ga, and her first Dragon*Con.. She wanted to come because all the other cast kept telling her it was the biggest coolest Con in the world, and she says she LOVES the South.. more than LA. It seems the Cast STILL keeps in close touch with each other, and are all good friends.

For those of you that haven't seen "Done the imposible", It's a MUST SEE... Everyone interviewed tells it like it is, no punches pulled.. and Joss says He begged F*X for the show back, and they gave it back to him to shop it around.. so It sounds like if another channel will pick it up, he could run with it.

It has a HUGE female audience, and it's growing BIGGER by the month, and That's EXACTLY what Hammer of Sci-fi wants to see! I "Assume" someone has put a copy of "Done the impossible" in her hands... if they haven't, it needs to be done, cause there are LOTS of females in it (Prolly more females than males).. seems someone else did their homework on Hammer also.. GOOD JOB!

Also, The South Eastern BorwnCoats have done a GREAT joB here at the Con this year, and have put a LOT of material directly into the hands of AT LEAST Summer and Allan.

She says she can Identify with "A broken heart" or "Family problems", but she can't identify with the emotional trauma and abuse (Etc etc) that River went through, so she has never felt up to the part of playing River.

She said She walked around and thought about depressing things a LOT to get into her "Role", because she couldn't just "Step in and out of characters" like the other actors seemed to be able to do.

BTW, Mythbuster's Torey and Cari Were late getting to the Con because the tail section of their Jet caught on fire and they had to make an emergency landing...they SWEAR they didn't do it :)

No More "Hints" needed.. I have Allan Tudyk ON TAPE saying that he's checked and there WILL be more movies, and that He and Ron Glass (Book) WILL be in them, But he doesn't know How, Or exactly when (he hopes at least one will be a Pre-quale).. When I get home and get the recording cleaned up I'll post it here... but it sounds like there's going to be MORE than one Movie AT LEAST.

YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST FOLKS!!!!!! FireFlyFans.net!!!!!



My heart is pounding. Thanks for the update on all of the festivities.

I saw the Burger Trooper...he was a big hit, no matter where he went.

Did you see the guy in the Dalak costume? The salt shaker villain of Dr. Who infamy was fantastic! It was a mechanized thing that the guy could ride around in. He had a voice modulator that made whatever he said sound just like one. I have a picture of it...now to figure out how to put it here...

Geeez! I got high blood pressure for 2 days now. I should refrain from reading this post.

This is really, really good news.
