It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

Cereal: Yes, Zenkitty, you must watch the commentaries. Although, if you were skipping, you could skip the commentary for Shindig. Mildly cute, but not all that exciting.

I may have to seize the cat.

Shindig is one of my favorite commentaries, because I'm a production-side nerd and so loved all the comments from Shawna about the costumes. I am aware, though, that it is generally (and rightly so) considered the least entertaining of the commentaries.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I might have to watch the Shindig commentary just to find out if she bought that hoopskirted outfit of Kaylee's something or she made it. Hoopskirts are a hoot to wear. As long as you don't plan to do anything like sit down.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Mikey, I was there. I heard the same comment/wishful thinking/plotting as you did.

Strawberry disappointment.

Morena Baccarin, Sean Maher, Gina Torres, Nathan Fillion, Jewel Staite, Summer Glau and Chiwetol Ejiofor will be attending the premiere at the Edinburgh International Film Festival on August 22nd. Joss Whedon and Chris Buchanan will also be there.

Anybody want me to shout stupid question at them?

I'm going to ask if this is the film spin off of Wonderfalls.

You can sit down in them, so long as you make sure the top hoop is above your butt when you do so. You just need lots of room on either side. Though it's fun watching the folks who haven't figured out to lift the hoops before sitting. "Nice underwear, my lady!"

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Showed that to her after The Message so the hat wouldn't be a surprise.

A good thing, too. A man walks down the street in a hat like that, and everyone around knows that his mother loves him. Also that not only does he love his mom, but that he ain't afraid of anything.

ETA: Making threats against Fox execs can't be illegal, can it? I mean, seriously. They aren't from this species.

Just as long as the Men In Black don't see it, right?

move out and draw fire

Whedon dreamed up Firefly six years ago after reading Michael Shaara's Civil War novel, The Killer Angels.

I did not know this. And it made me tear up a little. I've wished that my dad, a big proponent of the space western, could've seen Firefly. I don't know if he would've loved it, but he would have respected it, and I wanted to share it with him. He died in 2001, though. His last 24 hours was spent listening to his wife read him The Killer Angels, a book he really liked.

/me raises a glass for Raq's dad.

Mine would have liked Firefly, too.
