*the bun shakes her bonnet, confused and bewildered*
We have MaximusChapolinius (#22891) at top of thread.
We have ChapoliniusMaximus (#22742) farther down.

I dunno how many dishes of strawberries to set up.

Is it me? Or the Mudder's? Or, to quote Wash, "Whaaaaaaa?"

No, FloralBunny, you're not seeing things, I came back around to this thread to see if you'd put out shimmer wine ( I could really use some shimmer wine right now!) and noticed the same thing. Interesting! So we need another 'coat and I just happen to have one right here.

*hands MaximusChapolinius a 'coat that fits just right*

Welcome as well, MaximusChapolinius!

Hi there Maximus... Your story is so much like mine! I was house-sitting for a friend who had often asked me to watch this SciFi series by Joss Whedon - she knew I'd like it coz I love Buffy & Angel and she thought this was better...

I thought... So, why was it cancelled...? Why would I want to get into a series that I would never get to see the end of...? Why hadn't I really heard of any of the actors she mentioned...?

Then one evening I succumbed - just so I could tell her I'd watched it and be politely grateful for recommending it!!!

I had watched 4 episodes back to back (pilot/Serenity - Shindig) & it was 1.30am and I thought - I have to do something about this!!!! It cannot be all over... I found myself here and have never left!

You are so welcome and thank you for posting! You are home now and among family!! We love you because you love the 'verse! Enjoy!...

Love, Magdalena x x x

Welcome to the site and the ranks of the browncoats Maximus! Glad to have you with us.

Thanks for sharing your story. We love to read how new 'coats found the 'verse and fell in love. It is great to welcome new fans brimming over with enthusiasm. That is what we need; new blood and enthusiasm.

Since you are a browncoat you are charged with the same mission we all are; to spread the word. You have to share the series and the movie with everyone you know. We need new fans and we need to push the Serenity dvd. The more dvds that sell, the higher the profits for Universal, the better our odds of the story continuing in some form.

Welcome home Maximus. Take care & keep flyin'!

Thank you all for the responses!

As to my name they are both me...I tried to sign but it did not let me. (I had some severe mental hemmoroid...I may add) Couldn't come in for several hours so I figured to sign in again with both my names but in different order...same email etc. so that people still recognize me. I apologize for the confusion. (not a troll, I promise...)

My hubby can not wait to sign in as well. He has been in a case for several weeks now and coming home super late...can't tell you how many times I have watched the same eppi of Firefly before he falls asleep...I know them by memory by now. He has been trying to catch up and watch them again.

In order to belong to BUFF all you have to do is want is to be part of it. (It's for fun and stuff)Post it on your signature and that is it.

Thank you all, I already feel at home. I will definately go into that website and check it out as well.

BTW. I will continue with the name user MaximusChapolinius going forward.

I have been into firefly for about a year to a year and a half. first cought it on SciFi. I was hooked from the first 5 minutes. I got my wife, son and daughter hooked on it also. I saw the series before the movie. It is to the point at our hose now, that if there is nothing a tv, it is a Firefly night. I don't know how many times we have watched the dvd's.

This weekend, at a cast party for a show I am in, it turned into a firefly party. Complete with firefly sing alongs. Turns out that out of the 30 people at the party, only 7 had never seen the show, and the rest were all big fans. (Sort of a spontaneous shindig).

I am glad I found this place in the 'Verse. I look forward to meeting you all.

Hey hey hey! Welcome to the 'Verse, Maximus, and Francis. Enjoy your stay, and feel free to smack the cattle a bit as you come and go.

Btw, I don't live directly in DC, but in Maryland, 'bout an hour away, in Carroll County.
