I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

If wishes were horses we'd all be eating steak.

We still handing out toasters now that it is airing on SciFi? Cause I totally just hooked two new viewers with my DVDs.

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

Toasters for some, small Alliance flags for everyone.

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

I thought of all our toasters while watching last Friday's BSG, when Lee (I think) says, "Let's go toaster shopping," as they go off hunting Cylons. (Barely spoilery at all for the episode.)

(The crew of the Galactica sometimes refer to Cylons as "toasters" - at one point in the miniseries Baltar refers to the original Cylons as "walking chrome toasters.")

Art Crawl!!!

New trailer confirmed. This from Whedonesque:

Airing during Firefly on SCI-FI "between 7:45-8PM EST during the airing of 'Serenity Part 2'. It will have its Internet premiere shortly thereafter (more details to come) and will be in theaters in August."

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

It will have its Internet premiere shortly thereafter

Well, that's optimistic.

They're leaving off the "whereupon the host site will be crashed almost immediately by too many connections" part as understood.

I was thinking more along the lines of the "thereafter" bit, but you've got a good point too.

Hah. Got my dad good and hooked on Firefly through last Friday's SciFi airing. I thought it would be the scifi western combo that would bring him in, and he did like that part. But his main critical comment was, "Good lord that's a lot of pretty women in space!"

And, well, that's true. I'm pretty sure Kaylee's his dream girl (a pretty woman with curves who likes machines).

He's now trying to figure out how to get the sound on his pc to work properly so he can play my dvds.

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

A friend of mine reports that she's having a hell of a time buying the Firefly DVDs, cause they're sold out everywhere she goes.

Boo. Yah.

You have just made me happy, P-C. I noticed the price is back up on Amazon, too, which is bad for me getting that second copy, but good that they think they can get it.
