I was only joking.

So, my kids have to wait at school until Monday. No big loss. I'm sure their parents will thank me in the end.

As someone else has said above, your post was great (Tolstoyesque length notwithstanding). You may actually be eligible to win an award for the lengthiest newbie post. Anyone here keep some such records? Didn't think so. Well, I nominate you for it anyhow.

Welcome to the group. Just don't try to leave, as Jayne "will cause you pain" Cobb don't like folks leavin' -- ever.

In regards to the shirt, try the website Cafepress.com...they have tons of shirts, I just got two myself!!

I just signed up on this board myself yesterday, and although I feel like a total dork due to my obsession for this show, it is wonderful to have a "family" like this board, where you can feel at home in your dorkdom! Wait, not to say that everyone on here is a dork! I think I am digging a hole for myself, so I will try to bow out now!

In regards to the shirt, try this website:

As my daughter told me when we both realized we were hooked on Firefly and Serenity "embrace your inner geekdom"

In Love? Yes. That's a nice place to be. I think I've gone past love into that scary place called obsession.

And I like it here.





Um, I think I got there too, and it's getting crowded! (lol)

I'm in Alaska, near Fairbanks. It's 35 below zero fahrenheit right now, hence the name. I couldn't think of anything cool and Firefly related.
I'm new too and yes you do quote the 'verse. The other day I got a late Christmas present and I said "Shiny!" and everybody stared at me. Hee hee.

We're in the same boat. Last weekend after recording the marathon that was on SciFi I watched all the shows and then picked up the film. I've never felt this strongly about any TV series, or any sort of fantasy world for that matter. LOTR is about the closest thing to come to it, but Firefly is different. I've always been a big Starwars fan and when they announced the prequels I was so excited. But then they all came out and weren't really what I expected so there's been this big hole since. Firefly seems to have filled it and then some--it's along the vein that the new SW films should have been, but also so much more.

I find myself thinking about the damn show almost every day, even when I'm doing things that are completely unrelated--it's really catching me off guard.

So, you're not alone, you've got 2 new converts along with you (my wife too) up here in MN, USA.

FoundSerenity-

As you start to experience withdrawal, make sure to hang out here. There's all sorts of good stuff! Fan art (mphillips comic strip just starting), fan fiction, the River Tam sessions ( http://www.destinything.com/id149.html), the extended Firefly gagreel (can't remember where I got that), and the "Dead or Alive" script (uh, somewhere).


Jayne: I once hit a guy in the neck from 500 yards with a bent scope. Don't that count upstairs?
Book: Oh, it'll be taken into consideration.
Jayne: You made that sound kind of ominous.

Pennsylvania. Northeastern corner -- about a 2 hour drive northwest of NYC.

Put the quotes into the place below where it says "your signature", or else you can go to your profile and make a regular signature.

BTW, I drive a quarter bus (20 passenger max). Have a CDL C, with P and S endorsements. Have to be stinking recertified every four years in PA. Pain in the posterior. Especially for the lousy pay.
