He got his gun and we played Firefly all afternoon.

This is by far the funniest thing I have read in a long time. Joss and Adam would get such a kick out of this.

Great image.

My son is big for his age, as in a full head taller than most of his classmates, so he really identifies with Jayne. Every time we try to lift him we say, "This boy weighs a solid ton."

He loves Jaynestown. And he wants some grenades.

My wife and I just finished watching Stranger Then Fiction last night, which we did not enjoy at all. Anyways, my son today asked if it had any funny parts, and I said just one.

He asked what scene was funny, and I replied the one in the hospital (anyone who watched Stranger Then Fiction knows which scene that is).

He asked why being in a hospital was funny... and I replied without pausing "Because sick people are hi-larious".

Yesterday at work one of my coworkers said she'd help me push the dumpster back to where it's suppose to be (the truck or something left it in an inconvient spot) and I said "Shiny! Thing weighs a solid ton!"

It took me a second to realize that she wasn't pushing and was staring at me like I'd grown another head. I asked, "What?" She said, "What did you just say?" I had to think back for a second before it hit me. I said, "Oh! It's a Firefly thing." She nodded knowingly and said, "Right. You're little sci-fi thing." I got defensive with, "It's not a 'little sci-fi thing!' It's an AWESOME sci-fi thing!" She just rolled her eyes and sighed, "Whatever." and helped me push.

So I suppose you could say I had a 'Jayne' moment as well.

Obviously I'm gonna hafta ed-u-ma-cate her on it. I'll tie her to a chair if I have to!
She WILL love Firefly as much as I do!
Mwahahahahaha*coughcough*hahaha!

That sounds a worthy project, RRTI. Let us know how you make out with that kidnapping idea.

A worthy endeavor. I give you my full and unmitagated support (From across an Internet connection)

We'd have saved them if we could,

Good to hear things are going well (well, I mean as good as they can be, what with Iraq and all...).
Stay safe now, y'hear?
