Starting Wed, Jul 1, I will be a guest on The Best Defense: Survival for 10 episodes.

I have a 2 minute segment on each show covering preparedness for various disasters. My subjects are food, water, communications and economic preparedness.

Okay, so that's 20 minutes of fame.

Tune into the Outdoor Channel and watch.

There's talk, for the third season, of possibly covering zombies or Reavers or similar menaces. Talk only, but I think it would make a great episode.

Unfortunately, I don't have cable, so I don't get to watch.

Just wonderin' Mike, is Inara's title of "Ambassador" on Serenity honourary, or is it official?

I completely missed that, so I have no idea.

My guess is honorary.

Why ask me?:)

Are you a fan?
My guess is that you're just using this site as advertizing. If that's the case, okay- I just wanted to make it clear.

I am a fan. I think the show rocks. I've also only seen it once so far---going through the bonus material now. Seen the movie twice.

I don't recall mention of her being an ambassador, unless it's the one where she bails Mal out by claiming he's her indentured servant.

Am I close?

Hey, in today's depressed economy, do what you can and play it fwiw. We'll either scroll on by, or not.

Hint: re-watch the pilot episode "Serenity". The relevant scene occurs during the first 1/3rd.

Many of us have watched the entire series multiple times. It's all a function of the geekdom.

Be well.

I haven't had time to watch it that often yet:)

And while I do promote everywhere, I suspect there's few enough people on this forum not to justify paid ads:)

I'll probably rewatch that this week.

I'm still betting on honorary.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought this.

Oh no, the zombies killed god!

Definitely. Look mike, sorry we're being so rude, it's just that you just don't seem to know enough about firefly to be pushing this advertising on us. I would suggest posting this as a blog instead of on a discussion thread. That's how personal messages are sent around here.
