Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I propose Firefly 2: You Can't Take the Sky From Me.

Well, I was going to suggest, "Firefly 2: We'll Be in Our Bunks," but I imagine that would be more appropriate.

Nobody

We'll be in our bunks can be the celebration thread, when UPN or some other lucky network decides to give Firefly a shot.

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

What did you put in the post, brenda? If it was in t then it would be snipped right out -- so if you cut and paste someone's fake tag, you're going to lose it.

Nope, nothing like that. No tags or html in it, just a sentence or two.

What did you quote? All I can see is a ">" in the database.

Maybe I accidentally selected the text or something while I was going for the post button. I'm sure it was something like that.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Um. I know thread overload is a problem, but I nevertheless have a thread suggestion. In the next week, we know natter will be overtaken by TTT, especially during Joss show hiatus. Some of us won't be able to watch it the very first day, so people will have to whitefont, and others taking time off for the holiday won't catch all the discussion. And I know last year I would have loved to see all the comments in one place. Is there any interest--even by those with *no* interest in it, and who would prefer a hobbit-free natter holiday-- in an LOTR thread?

I'd LOVE a TTT thread.
