How shiny!! I always get a kick out of seeing Firefly stuff outside of the regular 'verse.

Swearing around the Office
An informal poll of HSW staff revealed the following "alternatives" to swearing -- the words we say when swearing would be inappropriate:


Dagnabit Oy
Darn it Poop
Funky tut Shang-a-lang
Jebus Shoot
Jeep 'n eagle Son of a monkey
Jeezy creezy Sweet cheeses
Mother-scratcher Tartar sauce
Oh, biscuits Zip-zap



OY! WHO says funky tut?

That was a really shiny, interesting article - SF Geeks truly do control the 'verse! Thanks for sharing!

One day.
One plan.

Hey, this article also has a shiny diagram of the brain showing where the amygdala is located. Cool. Now I know what was stripped in River's brain.



There's no place I can be since I found serenity.
