Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That's bound to make anyone a mite ornery.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I wonder if the growly usher needed a program to follow what all the craxy fans were doing, or was a craxy fan, who had to work and was darn well at least going to come away with a program....

Naaah.

Could someone detail (non-spoilery, or if it is, in spoilers) what the program was like. We only got key chains at the last Boston show (it sits proudly with my Nilly Tour 2004 button).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh crap. I was gonna bring mine into work so I could scan it it. Oh well.

The program was nice. Tri-fold format, nice glossy photos, bios of cast and Joss.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Nothing that anyone who hangs in this thread probably didn't already know.

Frank, I have an extra copy if you want it.

I didn't know that Buffy is the number 2 selling TV show DVD. Or that the soundtrack to "Once More, With Feeling" has sold over 400,000 copies.

It was nice to see that info, though. I assume Friends is the #1 seller?

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

but most especially Dana and Shrift.

They got to meet Summer.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I am so ridiculously happy to hear reports about the non-fans who loved it anyway!

Also, madly jealous of Teppy's plastic dinosaur goodie bag.

Sweet! Next Sommervillian gathering, I'll remind you to bring it.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

No swag in Providence except for the keychains and programs. They passed around a birthday card for Joss, and folks sang "Happy Birthday" (twice, the second time so someone could camcorder it so they could send a DVD of it along with the card), and some guy in a really ugly hat led a sing along of "The Hero of Canton."

Sounds pretty much like Chicago, except the birthday card was a banner in the lobby and we only sang Happy Birthday once. We also pretty much butchered "Hero of Canton" in our theatre despite our resident orange-hatted person passing out lyric sheets. Also, no one would have managed to get a camcorder into our theatre without serious work, as they were searching everyone's bags as they came in.

ETA: From a bit back

mostly because it had Mal, Zoe, and Wash all playing fools.

I've heard this arguement, mostly applied to Wash. As for Wash, I see his mistake in the light of 1) They had men with guns chasing them and shooting at them. 2) Neither Wash or Kaylee are tacticians or a warriors. 3) He seems like the kind of guy who if he thinks of a dangerous plan, he's going to be the one who goes through with it. I just can't see him sending Kaylee on the run. I think he was more or less focused on the immediate future of "How do we stop these people from trying to kill us?"

How did you feel Mal and Zoe were foolish?
