I would have loved a scene with Book, Inara and Jayne smoking the hookah in Inara's shuttle.
I can picture Inara and Book philosophically discussing meditation and religion -- and then Jayne just bursts out laughing.
Or something like that.

Haha -- that would be hilarious. Especially if when he was done laughing he said something incredibly insightful/stoned.
Gotta love the 'verse, where my Mary Jane is nice and legal (the visual companion tells us so, hehe).

Not that I don't respect you and your decisions, but get a clue. So alcohol and tobacco ruin lives. Thats just because it is sold over the counter to anybody with the proper (or at times inproper) credentials.
Working with kids I see the direct and indirect consequences of pot usage. Can you imagine seeing a kid three years after they start using. And thats all they use. Only to see them dumber that the first time you met them. Or friends that you grew up with having the same problem.
Please do one thing for me. Look outside yourself. I'm sure many on this forum will tell you the same thing. From the outside looking in most potheads only think of the world as it realtes to being high, smoking pot, or your next experience. Its kinda like dragging a person whose never left New York City to the wilderness of Nevada (I've done it). The insecurity of looking at the world without the hazy glasses can be a scary thing.
But who am I to talk. I sometimes watch FF/BDM while sobering up and eating whatever. Just limit yourself while having fun. Hate to find out that FF/BDM were just a novelty for the high times.

Hey nvghostrider:
I've seen and experienced the highs and lows of cannabis, and seriously Tobacco’s effects are far more dangerous to all, plus there's the whole fact that it is one of the most addictive substances known to man, while cannabis is non-addictive. Alcohol will cause harm to anyone who drinks to excess and is likewise addictive.
If you smoke twenty joints a day it's going to have an effect, if you drink twenty pints a day it's going to kill you and soon. Violence and borderline sociopathic behaviour go hand in hand with alcoholism; cannabis’s harms are far more introverted.
Sure Cannabis isn't as safe as proponents would like it known, but the worst thing cannabis will do is bring out an underlying mental condition that may never have surfaced.
What I mean to say is that you’re seeing absolutely the worst of cannabis and then looking at the big picture of other substances. Seriously Tobacco and Alcohol's reputation of 'being worse' than cannabis is well deserved and has nothing to do with them being more easily available.
That’s not to say that when people start in on the “cannabis is completely safe!” line it doesn’t piss me off. Be under no illusions cannabis really can ruin lives, and ‘cause’ serious mental illnesses in a minority of people, but to say it is worse or even as bad as Alcohol or Tobacco is just wrong.
More insane ramblings by the people who brought you beeeer milkshakes!
No one can see their reflection in running water. It is only in still water that we can see.

I dreamt that I was on a ship, and the crew had just discovered an amazing plant that you can smoke, and feel really really good from, *cough*cannabis!*cough*, but then after a while, you develop an insane appetite, and there just happened to be another ship passing by, so they boarded them and ate them. Thus, the origin of the Reavers.
Eerily on target, I'd say.

Well thanks to this post I just had an entire scene play out in my mind of Wash getting totally high. I started to type out what I imagined but realized it would be too long so I'll post it in a blog (my first.)
Actually it would make for a good fic, but though I can write I've had a problem with the FF lingo. Just want to get the idea down though before I forget it.
I can see all of them getting high, and Mal mellowing out for once in a long while. 
If I'm a bitch, then life just got interesting
In regards to this post, I actually made it into a fic, don't know how it happened it just evolved. Part 2 is yet to be written.

I don't need drugs, I get high on Firefly. 
Yeah, and maybe the odd bottle of a good ale.
