A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

As per last week's discussion in Bureaucracy, there was a bullshit majority agreement that UK fans of Firefly could temporarily call the Firefly Spoilers thread home, so that they could safely discuss the episodes unaired in the US without getting spoiled themselves for episodes they haven't yet seen.

"Trash" talk begins with Post 247 in the Spoiler thread. From there, going forward, there will be no talk in the Spoiler thread about "The Message" until July 28, "Heart of Gold" until Aug. 4, and "Object in Space" until Aug. 11.

I updated the thread slugs to reflect this.

FOAMY NOMINATIONS ARE NOW CLOSED.

Thanks to everyone who submitted! I'll be counting them and putting together a final list of nominees today, which will be posted, and then we'll have some time to discuss them before we vote. (Times to be made up by me at my convenience.)

Campaign time has started! We will have ONE WEEK to talk about the nominations, and then we will vote.

Voting for the 2nd Annual Buffista Movie Awards will begin on Monday, August 4th.

Since I'm going on vacation for a week starting August 9th, the results of the vote will not be posted until I return.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

For flea, or aurelia, or Ellen, or anyone else who's visited Cincinnati (or lived there and I didn't know about it): come see Clifton through my lens!!!

Thanks for all the fish.

Deathmatch: Riley commences. Who would have thought it would take this much time to finish Riley off?
