Was THERE! Can't say enough! We were asked not to take pics at the Nathan & Morena dinner, so I think all of us respected that request. California Browncoats and OUR BIG DAMN HEROES RULE!

I'll post my reports on LJ. Feel free to post links to it elsewhere. I'm not going to post it in every location.

I have a lot more still to go. But the first part was put up this evening.

Thanks for the story, danni!
That Nathan... after hearing your story and his other "drunken" stories lately, I think he may need to change his myspace profile from non-drinker. ;)

I'm not sure that I would want adoring fans around while I'm getting drunk, what with everyone watching your every move and recapping online. :)

I hope your finger is better!

Awesome, Kain! So have you shared your recap yet? Any great BDH conversations/observations to share? :P

This is so much fun reading all of these Backup Flan reports. Thanks for taking the time, all!

I don't think the links at the bottom of this thread have been posted here yet (they are more recaps and pics-- some really nice candids of Nathan are somewhere in there, too. :P )

Not yet, got back last night and passed OUT! I have a small comic book/gaming store so I have been telling stories ALL DAY! But I will soon. Cannot say enough about everyone there. Just are NO words. Big Damn Heroes DO NOT describe how Big Damn Cool they are!

Woot! That's so stinkin' awesome. Catch up on your rest, friend. Just know that your detailed report is eagerly anticipated. ;)

Nathan Fillion just posted HIS report at his MySpace
I'm not a member so I can't read it...
would someone please bring it here so we can all see it?!

oh never mind, here it is carried via the OB:

CLICK HERE FOR AUTOGRAPH, INTERVIEW, and ANY REQUESTS

So many of you have so many requests that involve me having to do work building websites, running to the post office, or just re-arranging my social calender. So many requests I could fill my days! Well, I finally worked out a way to appease all you foks who don't read my super cool blogs and ask for stuff anyway. Just find this here site and all will be taken care of!

http://www.zombo.com/

So, the Flan thing. What a disaster. um... that it COULD have been, I mean. Now, I don't know how to arrange and organize conventions, but since the thing was cancelled, I see no reason not to be refunded. Not the airline tix, but there was no con! I sure hope you folks saved your receipts. A good rule of thumb for how long you should spend ensuring the safe return of your hard earned wages? Take the amount spent on con ticket, divide by how many hours it took you to earn it, then square that number based on principal. Don't be afraid to be versed in legalese, be sure to save all co-respondence, always be civil and polite, and don't shoot till you see the whites of their eyes.

Saw some folks at the Hilton and La Cantina that I've met across the pond, saw some new folks, too. Looks like you guys really got the short end of the stick, but you took that stick, and... well, you know the rest. Props to Clare Kramer for extending her hospitality. A tip of the hat to Sean Harry, who connected folks and orchastrated as best he could at 4 am, London time. Way cool Michael, Mark, Ron, Christina, Camden, MORENA- who wasn't even invited! That was awkward. Who told her, anyway? C'mon, guys. Loose lips and all, with the ships? It's getting really hard to ditch her. I regret I didn't meet that nice VM fellow. Next time. Thanks for all the drink offers, sorry I was a nerd and drove, so- DRINKY STINKY. (Points to anyone who gets that reference. The list will be short.) It was a different feeling, for sure. Maybe what I was feeling was the collective sigh of relief from the way out-of-towners. Maybe I was feeling the community that has come to define Browncoats time, and time again. Maybe I was feeling the hands of those two giggling drunksters who thought it would be a great idea to manhandle my a$$ while I'm trying to be cool and say hello to every person I could in that huge crowd. Ladies, and you know who you are, I deserve your CCR. Courtesy, consideration, and respect. That made me feel really bad. Next time, I single you out and let everyone know that you are the reason why I'm leaving early. It'd be kinda like leaving you for the Reavers. (60% Mal, you know.) Still sound like a good idea? Sheesh.

OTHERWISE, thanks for all the gifts- the book, the scarf, the space monkey, my face on a dog tag (where can I wear something like that? I'm excited to wear it- but, WHERE?) just to name some of them. Oo! And I'm drinking some fancy Harrod's Tea. Makes me want to grow a handle bar mousetache and take over India or something. Most of all, thanks for keeping it alive, Browncoats. It really shakes my tree that this little show that couldn't- somehow, still does. Crazy. You Flans are indeed the best Flans a fella could hope for.
I also told you that I'd update you on my upcoming projects (the real purpose of this site).

Waitress made into Sundance. Woo Hoo! White Noise 2 comes out sometime in Jan, I think, and earlier in the UK (that oughta make somebody happy). I have a super secret thingy in London coming up soon, and YES- I have a new job on television. Not gonna say what, just yet. But I'll be working with someone I've worked with before and you all love him. Don't ask. You will, but don't. All will be revealed!
Cheers.
