Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

That is going to be one beautiful child.

Congratulations to Gina and family.

Compassionately intolerant

Shows that are set in DC but that don't use the actual Metro are the only ones that really bug me. No excuses!

There is a new film coming out with Chris!always thebadguy!Cooper that uses the for real tunnels. Good on em.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

That IS important. People who have not taken classes will do what they have seen on tv.

I'm always afraid of that when I see it done badly. Plus, I find the drama really ramps up when they show it right. I had thought, in Firefly's pilot when they're all floating in with the goods in the beginning, that an opportunity for more tension was lost: that there seemed to be no danger of the crew floating off into space what with no lines or jet thingies. (I'm trying to bring it back around to topic!)

She will co-star opposite Chris Rock in the upcoming movie “I Think I Love My Wife.”

I don't think I can to watch this. Fleets of space cannibals and psychic teenage assassins I can handle, but Chris Rock being able to land Gina Torres as his wife just involves too much disbelief for me to suspend.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I love that you can't hear explosions in the vacuum of space in the Firefly universe.

My biggest movie pet peeve is the one sprinkler head setting them all off. I never worked in fire protection but my friends who did tipped me off and now it really gets under my skin.

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

Silence in space is one of my favorite things about Firefly. I think it adds to the tension, because one expects a boom and then it doesn't come, and part of you is still tense, waiting for the boom.

What is even happening?

I don't think I can to watch this. Fleets of space cannibals and psychic teenage assassins I can handle, but Chris Rock being able to land Gina Torres as his wife just involves too much disbelief for me to suspend.

I started to think about that, but he is funny, and funny is a great sexer upper. Still, Gina is such a goddess.

Besides, we bought (in a marvelled at sort of way) that Wash landed her. ijs

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

Silence in space is one of my favorite things about Firefly.

I watched Superman Returns yesterday, and there's a scene where Supes hovers above the planet and superlistens to the world's suffering, and all I could think of was SOUND DOES NOT TRAVEL THROUGH A VACUUM NO MATTER HOW SUPER YOUR HEARING IS.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Chris!always thebadguy!Cooper

Well, almost always. Have you seen Lone Star? Gorgeous setting, good story, interesting transitions between two time periods, great twist at the end.

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

Oh, that is a good movie.
