I would want to be Jayne, because he doesn't have a job on the ship. He can sit around and sharpen his knives while everyone else has a job to do. The only time he's called on is when he has to bash skulls, and that's not bad either.. and he gets 10%!
I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image.

Definitely Mal.
I can identify w/ the character of Mal on many levels. To me, Mal has a lot of depth, depth that I think Joss and the writers had just started to scratch the surface on when Fox in their infinite wisdom (please note HEAVY sarcasm) pulled the plug.
The feeling of betrayal, loss, and lonliness that Mal feels is well portrayed by Nathan. You get the feeling that Mal is a fiercely independant spirit that is out there on the fringe of space, looking for something, but just what it is, he does not know yet.
Brooding, scarred, and defiant. Very cool character.

"Brooding, scarred, and defiant. Very cool character."
And there is that Peter Pan playfulness, even in the middle of a war situation (See "The Message" "They don't like being shot at. I figured that out myself." scene) that is very cool.
Its kind of a weird mix. He's as grown up as he's got to be for the time and place. When he can, he's a big kid, despite the war and all the bitterness. Maybe that is why he hires Kaylee (besides being both prettier and smarter than the old mech). It helps him keep in touch with that part of himself.
