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

In Minearverse:

Nilly

Signed, still haven't watched "Objects in Space" and therefore doesn't read the "Firefly" thread.

Polter-Cow

Hey, remember that time in "Objects in Space" when Mal dies three times?

I mean...

tommyrot

Yeah! It was so sad when he only came back to life twice. But also funny.

And who woulda' thunk that Inera would quit being a companion to become an accountant?

Polter-Cow

I was surprised to discover that Book's Big Secret was that he had been a clown. I guess clowns are more respected in the future. And use more guns.

tommyrot

Yeah, he was kicked out of the Clown Guild for exposing the fact that Blue Sun Corp. Clown Facepaint is what causes folks to turn Reaver.

Robin

I was also quite moved when Jayne revealed his choreography background and did his interpretive dance entitled "Searching for Happiness."

Lee

I loved the fact that Kaylee turned out to be a Fed. Never saw that one coming.

...

libkitty

Oh, and don't worry about the part where the creepy aliens attack the ship. I know that they said the show had no aliens, but it is all explained later.

Daniel C. Jensen

And Kaylee in the corset and long red fishnets, with the bullwhip? Priceless.

Wolfram

And Kaylee in the corset and long red fishnets, with the bullwhip? Priceless.

That was Book.

libkitty

You're both right DCJ and Wolfram. Remember? It was Kaylee in the Sound of Music singalong, and Book in the gay bar.

Narrator

I thought Simon was in the gay bar. Darn. Now I have to rewatch the episode and see.

...

and the piece de resistance

Matt the Bruins Fan

I thought Simon was in the gay bar. Darn. Now I have to rewatch the episode and see.

Narrator, they're listing funny events that are out of character.

Edited because the box is way too small for me to try and post this long of a message without messing up at least three or four times.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Kat:

one thing that strikes me in reading this convo is how the word LIBERAL has been demonized through connotation.

Did anyone hear the NPR piece on just this? They talked about how in the 60s, Nixon talked about being a liberal himself.

Liberal is a great word. Shares a root with liberty and freedom. If we're afraid to say, "I'm for freedom" then we're fucked as a country.

What is even happening?

JZ: My TiVo is sneering at me. After spending TWO HOURS after work trying to make the TiVo, VCR, TV and cable box speak to one another, I give up. We're gonna end up drowning in episodes of Teen Titans, and I'm never gonna be able to save one damn minute of Jon Stewart.

Swouncing

Morning shift in Natter:

Sue: Though I claim tiredness every morning, I can assure that today I am more tired than before. In a way, it's the new and improved tired. "Now with more Tired!"

And if that paragraph doesn't convince you that I need more sleep, nothing will.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

From the wilds of Natter:

Tommyrot: Help wanted: Court jester.

Jessica: I saw that earlier today. I was thinking we could send Dubya.

Vortex: Jessica, they want a court jester, not a village idiot.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Gudanov: Sounds like the Illinois Republicans are trying to being in Alan Keys from Maryland to run against OBama. Can they really not find a warm body to throw into the race that is actually from Illinois?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Deena in Bitches:

I thought the toilet acquarium was very cool, and then remembered that when I first got our fish there were six of them, and three of them murdered the other three... and I just don't think I could handle that kind of drama while I'm on the toilet.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

And more commentary on the Assquarium from Raquel:

My one concern with the toilet aqaurium is that it's like forcing the fish to live at the cemetery. I haven't had to give a fish a "burial at sea" since my butterfly koi ate too much and blew up at 2:30 am, but hey, no other fish needed to see that

Fred Pete - Aug 05, 2004 9:48:25 am PDT #6506 of 10000

Ann, that's a ferret.

Sean explains it all in F2F:

We in California have a very casual relationship with rules.

Nora Dierdre: I swear, if I hear the phrase, "Men are stupid but women are crazy" one more time... I'm gonna do something crazy. Or stupid, just to thwart the paradigm.
