My neighbor knitted me a Jayne hat.  I'll post a picture as soon as I download it from my phone.

Watched Serenity tonight after dinner.

I cry when Wash is killed.  =(

Want moar.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Is the hat cunning?

Now that you got the hat, don't forget the grenades.

I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do.

A man walks down the street in that hat, people know he's not afraid of anything.

It do be fun to use the chinese and other phrases taken from Firefly and use in everyday speech.  Gose, ruttin', gorram, shiney, etc.

You either get the look of complete befuddlement or the shock of recognition.

I've been known to use that in everyday conversations when i'm in the midst of a Firefly binge.

But I don't really talk muuch to people that don't know me, and the people that know me don't bat an eye at my somewhat odd vocabulary choices anymore.

Which reminds me... I need to call someone a trollop today....

Yes, yes you really do.  

Watch about half of "The Message" with my son tonight.  I've got a Jayne hat, and now he wants one.

There's no place you can be once you find serenity.
