Did Jewel Staite appear on The X-Files? I think it's JS, but the actress is young - maybe 12 or so. She's being held hostage in a basement by a creepy guy.

ETA: OK, two seconds later, I've confirmed that it's JS. I love the internet.

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.

Yes, she did. I seem to recall her commenting on having to be given Mouth to Mouth by David Duchovny.

She's being held hostage in a basement by a creepy guy.

Well, that narrows it down to one or two episodes a season (snark directed at CC and not JenP). Can you specify the ep? Or at least the major theme of the ep?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Frank, it's Oubliette .

Heh, good point, Frank. It was Jewel. Poor little thing. But she ended up OK. And, yeah, mouth to mouth from DD.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Check it. There are six months between now and the release of Serenity.

Will we care about Joss' porn addiction then?

Well, OK, we will.

Adrian Pasdar: bringing hot (and ambiguously gay) to a new level since Top Gun.

As long as there are porn addictions in this world, we will never stop paying attention/fighting/cheering.

"There are two sorts of people in the world: those who believe Joss Whedon is a genius and those who are wrong." - Connie Ogle, Miami Herald

I ordered it through barnes & noble (the actual store). I guess they got it in early and decided not to hold it until the proper release date.

(I'm a B&N employee.) If it's not a strict-on-sale title (mostly major releases, like the next Harry Potter book), it goes on sale the day it arrives in the store. Odd exceptions happen like a title being SOS while the corresponding audiobook isn't, and can be bought in advance of the book's actual release.

To steer this back on topic, I got my copy of Finding Serenity early, too, and I've been pleased with the quality so far. I like Jane Espenson's little asides at the start of each piece. Also, Jewel Staite has an essay where she highlights 5 things she liked from each episode.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

If it's not a strict-on-sale title (mostly major releases, like the next Harry Potter book), it goes on sale the day it arrives in the store.

Is this common knowledge? I'd never heard this before. (I'm not complaining, though, because I got my book a week earlier than I planned.)
