I am leaving the country (my country... australia) on Monday and will not be back until after Sept 30 (which won't matter because Serenity won't be out till Nov 10 here, thinking of urgent visit to distant rels in California)... I will be out in the middle of nowhere with no internet access, so will be without my almost daily fix of FFFN.
anyway, just wanted to say thanks, you guys are a great bunch of people, a fan group of which any BDH would be proud.
Ta!

Bone voy-aggie! Be careful, bring some vitamins and extra underwear and would it kill you to write us once in a while?

minime:

That sounds pretty tough. I hope you're excited about whatever prospect is taking you outback(er).

Reading of your plight, and imagining how I'd feel (especially being separated from so many familiar faces and habits), I had a kind of radical idea.

Are you taking a laptop (and solar charger, in lieu of available AC)? Is an internet connection the only thing you'll be missing? Do they have (semi-reliable) postal service?

If the answer is 'yes' to those three questions, it may be possible to snail-mail FFFn updates to you.

While I've never plumbed FFFn, I'd bet it'd fit on a single CD-R (if one lopped off all but the last week's worth of BlueSun Room images). Depending on the cost of shipping one to you in East Jesus, Western Australia (or wherever), I could send you a CD every week or two...

Of course, Haken would have to approve such use, and "All FIREFLY related graphics and photos on this page are copyright 2002-2005 Mutant Enemy, Inc., Universal Pictures, and 20th Century Fox.
All other graphics and texts are copyright of the contributors to this website.
This website IS NOT affiliated with the Official Firefly Site, Mutant Enemy, Inc., or 20th Century Fox."

If this looks appealing to you, just gimme an "Amen!" (or equivalent Aussie expression) and I'll do the rest of the research, post-haste. If it ain't gonna work, for whatever reason, just say "Thanks anyway," and we'll consider it another crazy Yank idea that's mucking up the balance of world power...

Speculatively,

zoid

Amen!
And hallelujah!
And thank you!
Wow, what a generous offer.

Yes to all three questions (but no solar charger, generator power 12 hrs per day!)... wow.
Once more blown away by the amazingness of the Browncoat community.

Will double check snail mail address (rural Papua New Guinea, apparently semi-reliable is a good description) and email you direct.

Thanks for a very very generous offer.
Wow.

minime:

C'est mon plaisir, mini'.

I also got your message, and will finalize details in a less public way.

P.S.
No one should have to do without FFFn.

Going on a walkabout, huh?
Well, have a nice time. We'll be here waiting to hear all about it when you get back.
Bye for now!

I'm going to the beach this weekend, what can you do for me? I, too, will be without my FFF.net!

Ummm... Visualize you in a bathing suit?

I'd do something about that whole FFF-whatever-thing, too; but, I'm gonna be preoccupied from now until at least Monday. Is it just me, or did you suddenly just get very hot in here?

Fantastically,

zoid

P.S.
Just bringin' it back from 'lofty', yet again. I'm afraid of heights. Especially since my stupid clay feet keep crumbling.

Ta muchly, all!
I fully expect that by October everyone will be going on and on and on (etc) about the BDM... but I also expect spoilers to be labelled so I can steer clear. Anyway, since I won't get to say it again before 3/9/05 - enjoy! and... how dare it be released in Australia over a month later??!!
Over and out from me for 6 months *sniff*... although thanks to Zoid's generosity I may be able to lurk from a distance

minime:

I'm still working it from here in 'the land upover'. I think I'm getting results, so, good news that. I should be able to mail out yer 1st CD-R or DVD+R within the week, and you should be getting it within 30 days (depending on snail-mail delivery from two hemispheres away).

And don't forget, you can pass back messages for the Flans through me via email. If anybody's got messages/pics/video for you, I'll put 'em in a special folder on the CD/DVD marked 'Mail'.

Have a safe and happy trip. We'll be thinking of you...

Respectfully,

zoid

P.S.
minime: Perhaps you'd care to share with everybody, before you go, exactly what you're going to the bush of PNG to accomplish? I think it's pretty special, but I wouldn't presume to tell your story...
