Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Just to point out a couple'o'things...

- Yes, TheInside.org is up before the show has started. That's deliberate. I can't see a 'fandom' site for it yet, and Fox haven't put up anything constructive yet.

I want to make sure there's a clearly visible "The Inside" website on Google for when the show airs. Doing that needs a few weeks run up of the site being online.

Also: worth noting Fireflyfans.net went online over 6 months before Firefly starting.

- Am I taking a huge leap that I'll like the show? Er, possibly. Regardless, the site is up, and it'll stay up.

- When the site was posted here, it was still awful new (as it, it's only just gone online). There were a LOT of rough edges, and still are. I'm tightened up the design and information with what I can find. Information is still an issue... Tim, darling, dearest...

- Yes, the banner on the site has nothing at all to do with The Inside. A mixture of lack of publicity photos and not wanting to be sued has caused this. And the fact I'm crap at graphic design, too, plays a large part.

- There's no reason for this final bullet point. It just looks pretty.

Tank-ooo. And please forgive the rank nature of the site as it matures. I am reasonably intelligent (who'd of thunk it?), but the site doesn't quite reflect that. What can I say, I'm a hack.

Psst...Kevin...I sent you an email yesterday.

And, personally, I love the site. I love that it exists. It makes me happy.

Kristen,

Email no turn up shocker. Could you forward it back to inside@theinside.org for me, please?

I would say the email monster ate it, but - well - that's a) a bit silly, b) not really funny and c) neither are alphabetical lists as jokes.

I think more likely the spazzy server admins funked things up again, and I lost email on the site for the first day or so. They won't be getting my fist full of dollars this month. (Or indeed pounds. Being in England, and all).

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I am a fan of alphabetical list as jokes.

You should read my television pilot. It's full of them. I never did figure out why I daren't show it to anybody.

I just sent you another email, Kevin. Hopefully this one gets to you.

Yeah, it's turned up fine and dandy. I thank you - I will get correcting after I've stuffed my face with unedible food.

I must say, I like this site a lot. (Could I sound any more English?). FAQ = BestThingEvah.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I thought that was odd but sweet, too.

Hm. I have an idea....
