Well, to start, I've been a long time member here, but I'm guilty of not posting in a long while. Been busy, like everyone else. I sat down recently and rewatched Firefly from episode one through Serenity. This 'verse and these characters were every bit as good as I remembered. I had the renewed feeling of being angry/sad/appalled that this show didn't get the chance it deserved. (Especially given some of what is on TV- I offer the CW as an example...Did we REALLY need another 90210?!) I guess my point is this 'verse feels like home, and the sight of Serenity's rusty hull still makes me smile. There's something about Firefly that pulls you in. It's like Kaylee told Book, "You're gonna come with us."

"Shouldn't you be off spreadin' religiosity to the fuzzy wuzzies or somethin'?" "Oh, I've got heathen's a plenty right here."

It's good to be back on board, and I still love that movie! "It's a good knife. Goodbye, Mr. Burton."

Hello shineyfly:

Great to see your post. It seems once Firefly gets in your blood it stays.

Most people who stop posting for that amount of time never return. I'd say 90% of the "old timers" won't be back. Thanks for beating the odds, and staying a true Browncoat

I still check in here occasionally. Always hoping to hear something about another movie or series run. Sometimes to see what the old peeps are talking about. Haven't bothered posting because no one ever much liked hearing what I had to say.

Makes any difference to anyone, I'm back in the Army, home on leave right this second, but I actually leave back for Iraq tonight. Also, I got married.

Carry we who die in battle over land and sea,
Across the rainbow bridge to Valhalla,
Odin's waiting for me.

I can just hear the smile in Kaylee's voice when I read those words.

It's magic.
