My ship's name is "Painted Wagon" bonus points for anyone who can say where this is from. :)

I am not worried about the bullet with my name on it. Just the thousands marked "Occupant".

We just started an RPG, and the player who plays the Captain, Jason Drake, named his ship The Argos and intentionally not Argous, as is historically accurate, because 500 years is a long time for information to be corrupted. So I am running a game with Jason and the Argoastronauts...LOL!

Now, me, I'd name my ship Fusion Wake and put a space-age flame job on it! Kidding! Though that sounds kinda cool, actually, I really think I'd just call it Murphy's Law because I am sure it would apply ALL THE FREAKIN' TIME!!!

Since ships are usually called girls names I'd have to call it Jayne.

In the Firefly 'verse I'd name my ship "Hotaru" (which is Japanese for firefly.) and I'd naame my car Serenity. 'Cause I'm totally get a Firefly.

Jayne: Are you saying River's a witch?
Wash: Yes, Jayne, she's a witch. She's had congress with the Beast.
Jayne: She's in Congress?
Wash: How did your brain even learn human speech?

How many points would I get if I could still sing one of the songs? And are these points exchangeable for goods and services?

As for my ship: "The Skyclad"

Well, my first car was a VW Rabbit named Helmut, the next car I named was a Honda Civic called Seamus McFalconrider (Seamus Mc for the Irish-Scots sound of it, Falcon for the Millienium Falcon, and rider for the Wolfriders), and the car I have now is Jack Gamgee Dawkins -- Jack Dawkins is the Artful Dodger, and Gamgee cause if a car has a personality, wouldn't you want it to be Sam's? :)
Yeah, all my cars are boys, too.

A spaceship I would called Skywise -- just Skywise.
A sailing ship....hmmm, I dunno. The Rohirric Nurse, maybe. Hellooooooo, Rohirric nurse!

I am a geek on so many levels...

"Where am I goin', I don't know,
Where am I headed, I ain't certain
All I know is I am on my way."

Is it time for a rousing chorus of "They Call the Wind Inara"?

Lol!! 2 people, wow. More than I expected. Well, if you want to come to Dallas we might be able to work out a trade for goods or services. We could even watch some Firefly if my DVD player is working by then.....sigh

They call the wind Inara....sigh A good song made better. :)
