As I read that,I could just hear Kaylee sayin that to Jayne. Hi-lairious.

Didn't Kaylee say that to Simon? Or am I having sleep-deprived delusions? (I'm not that tired, I think...)

Lately whenever I'm driving and I see a cop cruising around, I can't help thinking "Uh-oh, it's an Alliance patrol!"

A buddy of mine was hitting on a girl 10 years his junior - still legal, mind you. While she was away for a few minutes I just had to lean over and tell him that he was going to the special Hell. LOL!

Today I thought of Firefly while watching the Oscars. Every time they announced awards for costumes or special effects, I had no idea what film it was for until they announced that, after all the names. And then I started thinking how in two years, I'll actually recognize the names when they announce Oscars for Shawna Trpcic for costume design and Loni Peristere for special effects, for the Firefly movie!

I thought of Firefly this morning on the way to work when I was changing the radio station and heard what sounded like the beginning of the theme for Firefly. I went back to the station only to realize it was a country song.

Of course I have had the theme stuck in my head all morning now.

You sure on that? I don't have my DVDs right now so I can't check, but I swore it was post-hore.

Maybe it's a 'post-whore', for clients to um...'pass the time' after Inara leaves...

Good. Thanks for the update.

I looked up "hore" ( www.Merriam-Webster.com) and all it could come up with was a bit about some English politician - Hore-Belisha, first name Leslie, born 1893 and died 1957. You might be interested to know he was the originator of the Belisha beacons used at pedestrian crossings. I didn't know they had an actual name - did you? Point is, "hore" ain't in the dictionary.

I did check the DVDs - with the English subtitles turned on. Kaylee says, "it's a postholer, for digging holes for posts," as she's checking out Simon.

River gives Simon her prettiest smile when she says, "It's a postholer, for digging holes for posts." At the time she was tied up to the post that was likely dug by a postholer.

Postholer itself isn't a word either, by the way. Just one of those vernaculars that gets used a lot more often than posthole digger. Folks do use them for digging holes for posts - for back decks or awnings and such. I've seen it done.

Why're we still talking about this? I feel like I'm trapped in a Succatash post - whore or hore or postholer - you be the judge.

Had a couple of post holers when growing up. Almost never used them, though. MUCH easier to hook the auger up to the tractor than to dig 50 holes in red clay with a post holer.....

Secial hells usually involve fencing. As in building fences, not knowing which end of the sword to hold.

Yep, from 'Serenity', where Jayne and Book are helping Kaylee out in the engine room. Kaylee is giving directions to the other two, so they can set up the Crazy Ivan maneuver to escape the Reavers.

For half a moment I almost thought it was from O.o.G where Mal has the flashback to when he 1st met Kaylee. Bester tells Mal that the Secondary Grav boot is shot...Kaylee " no it ain't"... tells them its the Reg Couple...(?) ...and she points it out to Bester.
