My column today at the Daytona Beach News-Journal:

'Serenity': Finally I can have my life back

At long last Joss Whedon's "Serenity" -- the science-fiction-slash-western movie based on his canceled TV show "Firefly" -- is premiering nationwide this week.

It's about time. I'm exhausted.

You could say I'm a fan of this fictional, multicultural universe of shepherds, gunfights, spaceships and whores. I'm active in the online forums. There are "Serenity" stickers on my car, action figures on my desk, and "Serenity" wallpaper on my computer. I curse in Chinese. I've had the theme song stuck in my head for three years. And I can't seem to stop myself from turning every conversation, no matter what, into a "Firefly" roundtable and trivia contest in under ten words.

Take our slot, take our cast
Run them all mixed-up, half-assed
I don't care, there's DVD
You can't take my show from me...
