The tiny black-and-white (taken from the "behind the scenes" feature of the "Firefly" DVDs? I remember the background. And the hat.) picture at the bottom is so much better.

At least, um, it captures the way he talks with his hands? Which is, um, you know, a good thing. No, I can't even try to pretend that's a silver lining of any sort.

With the thumb up, it looks like you're hitchhiking. Well, it looks like a distant relative of yours is hitchhiking. "Can anyone give me a lift to the Screenwriting Expo?"

This bit

Students lob ideas toward the podium,
keeps giving me giggles. Possibly because I'm picturing mortar fire.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Who picked the photo of Joss? It's all very amusing.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Well, that's how it was. Can't you tell by the look on Tim's face?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Okay, can we stop talking about my retarded writing and talk about the retarded graphic designer?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

There's a certain RoboZombieTim charm to the picture.

"Don' be e-scared"

If that photo had been as well shaded as your prose, Allyson, I'd had have come off looking like a member of SAG, as opposed to a sagging member. Should I rephrase?

No, no. The phrase is cracking me up.

Also, Tim is donating his cut to My Friend's Place.

This should all go in Press, yeah?
