"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Of interest to most of us, Aisha Tyler's podcast interview with Nathan Fillion.
Skip the first seven minutes where she tries to monetize her website, and then they discuss: How he grew up in Canada (Edmonton), His experience on Soap Operas (One Life to Live), Working with Ryan Reynolds, How to be a starving actor in LA and pay for your rent by juggling credit card debt, Firefly, Joss, How much they are both in love with Alan Tudyk, comic books (in great supernerd detail)...

Delurking thread is now open! Stop by and say hello! Or tell us what you've been up to this year, even if you're a regular. And make sure to update your pin on the Buffista map if you've moved in the last year.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I thought I'd announce that we're just starting the next play-by-forum game of Battlestar Galactica in the Gaming thread: billytea "Gaming 1: You are likely to be eaten by a grue" Oct 6, 2012 4:30:11 am PDT. This is our sixteenth game. BSG is not only fun to play, it can also be fun to watch. The game includes space battles, deception and betrayal, and allows for some role-playing too. Any lurkers who'd like to watch are very welcome to do so (quite aside from the fact that we couldn't stop you even if we wanted).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Hey peeps! In honor of Delurking Month, why not help support the board? As you know, we don't charge anyone to post, but it does cost $99/month to run the board. Whether you're a regular poster or not, if you have any extra funds this month, consider sending some of it my way for board maintenance!
You can paypal to donations at buffistas dot org, or email me (same address or any other, I should get it) for my address to send a check. Note that I moved over the summer, so if you have any earlier address for me, it's wrong now.
Thanks!!

I sent out the first elfster invites for ANSSWSGE 2012. Here are the other important dates:
Sign-up deadline is 10/28 Drawing names (done electronically - you cannot have who you had last year) will be 11/1 Gift Giving Deadline is 12/31
And as I do every year I encourage people to communicate or gift multiple times and generally mess with your giftee. Otherwise it is just me doing that and it ruins it.
