I'ma going to pull it all into Dreamweaver, soon. then I can get rid of the frelling MS Frontpage-induced choppyness of the font.

Firefly 4: Also, we can kill you with our brains
Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe. Like the other show threads, anything broadcast in the US is fine; spoilers are verboten and will be deleted if found.
Shiny! Thanks, Daniel. I've been meaning to dig up those reviews, and this makes it easy.
"Do you know what the first rule of flying is?"
We don't talk about flying?
Also? It's the second rule too, right?
Fighting.
We don't talk about fighting.
But flying talky is okay.
Also, the second rule of flying is no steering with your knee, and definitely no steering with invisible controls and hoping no one notices.
I thought it was to fall and miss the ground.

Indeed.
The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy has this to say on the subject of flying. There is an art, it says, or rather a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss. Pick a nice day, it suggests, and try it. The first part is easy. All it requires is simply the ability to throw yourself forward with all your weight, and the willingness not to mind that it's going to hurt. That is, it's going to hurt if you fail to miss the ground. Most people fail to miss the ground, and if they are really trying properly, the likelihood is that they will fail to miss it fairly hard. Clearly, it's the second point, the missing, which presents the difficulties.
Booster update, if anybody is wondered -- they put themselves into bankruptcy a few days ago, in Minnesota (rather than Oregon). However, there are rumblings online that the feds are plannin' things, but asking people not to post about it in detail online yet.
Wonderful vid, Juliebird. That's a keeper.
Even though I still really really hate the "first rule of flying" speech.
thanks a bunch, dcp!
Lots of hard work, time, and love went into that vid.
Why do you hate the speech?
