Happy to be of service. I love my coat. It is not 100% identical to Mal's, but it is close enough to make me happy, and I will be altering it a bit to make it look closer to the real thing.

Hope the link helps you out. Adam Leathers offers a money back guarantee if you are not 100% satisfied w/ the coat.

Do they spell the word geese as gease in the Firefly 'verse?

because the firefly verse doesn't have spell check...yes, that is how you spell gease

I already have my River Halloween outfit, from Safe, ready for next year. Sadly made with items easily attainable from my very own home.

Those who restrain desire, do so because thiers is weak enough to be restrained.

Since I finished my "special project" yesterday I thought I should post just how obsessed I am. I've put all the eps on audio cassette. Nothing hi-tech, just an ol' taperecorder set next to the primary speaker. It took some experimenting but the final product is shiney! If you're like me you don't need to watch Firefly in order to SEE it. I've got to go run some errands pretty soon soooo...decisions decisions which ep to listen to while driving around...Trash or Shindig. BTW each episode fits perfectly on one side of a 90 minute tape.

Shiny idea StarHand. Never really thought of recording the audio to listen to in the car. The character interaction and one liners in Firefly are what make the show so funny and enjoyable.

I might have to record them myself to listen to on the 20 minute drive to work every morning.

Any help would be nice, thanks.

Ahhh, kindred spirits. Never thought I was the only one but nice to hear from so many obsessed souls. Personaly I can hardly do anything anymore that doesn't somehow remind me of Firefly.

- I Get up in the morning and as I drive to work I have a CD with the Ballad of Serenity playing on repeat. I must have heard it a few hundred times already, and I'll hear it a few hundred times more.
- I have the home and work computers showing various Firefly wallpapers. My main PC's homepage is www.fireflyfans.net
- I started calling my younger sister mei mei (to her dislike:)
- My mei mei's boyfriend borrowed my DVDs and watched the pilot (Serenity) one morning when he was bored...at 9.30PM he finished watching the last part. I couldn't believe, he watched the whole DVD set in one day and he wasn't even a fan when he woke up. I have converted! MWAHAHAHA!
- I play D&D with 4 of my friends and after getting THE(!) idea, I abruptly finished the current storyline and started making a Firefly D&D. Seems really great at the moment and I expect us to play it for the first time at the end of this month. Can't wait. Oh, and while I'm making the game, I watch parts of the series in a small (always on top:) window. Inspiration and such...
- Before I go to sleep (at around 4AM each day) I read the fanfic I print from this site.

Anyway, thank you all you browncoats for keeping Firefly alive, I love the Blue Sun Room, the art, pics and fanfic there. Keep flying!

Take me out to the black, tell them I ain't coming back...

You say that like it's weird or something. :)One can always use a long leather trench.

I bought my first long leather black trench when I was 19. After a decade hidden in my closet, I finally gave it to my college bound neice last year. All her buddies at UMD were doing their best to 'Bogart the Vintage'.

I'm looking for a suitable 'Brown Coat'. eeeks, I am obsessed :)

Realy though, if you can pull off River convincingly I say go for the costume from "Serenity". It's not that hard to find a washing machine box and some silver spray paint.
