You know, I think that has a lot to do with how Browncoats are in general. We don't take things for granted since our beloved series got cancelled. But we don't lose hope, since that cancelled series got turned into a BDM.

I think the good vibes, though, are mostly due to the optimistic sentiment around here, and wanting to spread around those good feelings about the seires. KF

Lord, I'm walking your way. Let me in, for my feet are sore, my clothes are ragged.
Look in my eyes, Lord, and my sins will play out on them as on a screen. Read them all.
Forgive what you can and send me on my path. I will walk on until you bid me rest.

Okay, this is a little weird. First of all, thanks for all your help, FollowMal, Asarian and ChristheCynic. I think the problem is that I'm logging in through Mozilla. When I come here through the e-mail notices or through Internet Explorer, I can see the avatar, but when I come in through Mozilla, I can't see it. How strange is that?

Thanks again, everybody!

I don't think that's ever getting old. :) It expresses so much hope, and, at the same time, makes you feel a real participant in the process. Thank you!

I had the same problem when I first started posting, but after a week or so, it started showing up and now I don't have the problem anymore. I had just assumed that maybe you had to be a member for awhile before you could use the avatars. Hmm, how strange.

We're gonna explode? I don't wanna explode!

I, too, have appreciated how friendly and upbeat everyone is around here. Firefly became my obsession pretty much overnight as soon as I was able to start watching the series. This site has gone a long way toward furthering my obsession and has some great resources linked to it. Enjoy your stay!

I started watching Firefly on the Space Network here in Canada and was hooked immediately. I have been a trekker for over 30 years and I've chucked it all aside to become a Browncoat. It doesn't take long before one feels that the shows characters are like your old friends. Now by joining this website I have made new friends who definately understand me. Members of my own family think I'm just going through a phase but I'm here to stay. I hope that in years from now we'll all be discussing the latest Firefly movie.
I hope it has a long healthy run and I'm going to do my part to spread the word.
Love Lalara

Hi there. :) How are things in Lalara land? (Oh, God, that was bad! have I sunk this low? lol).

Anyhow, I so had to chuckle when you said you have been a trekker for 30 years, but tossed it all for the 'verse. :) See, I soooo recognize that! Done exactly the same thing! I have just recently become a browncoat myself (a good two weeks ago). And as I read your post, I suddenly realized I have not seen any of my regular stuff, like Stargate Atlantis, Battlestar Galactica (new series) or Lost. I missed them all. Or, more accurately, I didn't miss them at all! :)

The 'verse, without the FireFly Love in it, has suddenly become a very barren place, now hasn't it?

Anyway, I just want to say: welcome! We're still flying. That's not much; but it's enough.

Thanks to you comrade.

Without this place I would be a lone soldier...but here...we are legion.

We will hold...we hold till Mal gets back.
