A big SHINY hello there to all the lurkers in the verse.

We sure would like to get to know you. I promise you don't have to post eveyday, but it would be great if you would register and pop in and say hello! We had 1000 new members in the last little bit, I'll bet there are even more out there waiting for the moment to join us. Make this it!

So come join us in the PARTAY thread or the Limericks, or anywhere and let us know who you are!

I better let FollowMal know to order some more browncoats!

I am on The List. We are The Forsaken and we aim to burn!

*the bun follows the scent of new browncoats, enters the thread, and sees ex-lurkers hanging out, newly 'coated.*

What a fine and shiny sight! We are headed for 21000 at warp speed. Which is appropriate, considering how warped many of us are...

Strawberries are in this big bowl here, nestled into bigger bowl of ice, looking so pretty. We're going to whip some of this cream and split some shortcakes, but if you don't want to wait for that, feel free to dip some berries in one of these special dishes. Cream cheese, chocolate, powdered coconut, whatever.

Big buffet standing by, and a Mudder's Milk fountain going.

(Keep on spreading the word, even if it means doing the bedsheet bit -- we're into bedsheets!)

Seems kinda rude not to take this shiny opportunity you folks have offered to jump right in and introduce my self.

I'm a UK Browncoat but only since the Serenity DVD came out here a few months ago - I'm sad to say Firefly had passed me by until then - obviously like everyone around here I'm now totally hooked and committed to doing whatever I can to ensure that we can all be around in this 'Verse, by whatever means Joss can conjure up for us in the future.

Looking forward to flying with you,

I guess I'm obligated to say something since you're bein' so free with your fine whiskey... which, by the way, I'm more than happy to relieve you of.

I didn't mean to make ya feel obligated, but that sure is a shiny explaination. My Earth-That-Was history knowledge is somewhat spotty, so I'll apologize for my ignorance.

I signed up a few months ago, but have pretty much been lurking. I love this board and it seems that members are very friendly here.

Husband and I discovered Firefly/Serenity after the holidays. We watched the movie, felt like we were missing something. We found out about the series, so got the box set and watched it all in 3 days! Everything makes sense now, and I am all manner of obsessed with Firefly/Serenity! I really enjoy all of the wonderful fan fiction out there, so keep up the great writing everyone!

Gonna purchase the PSP version of Serenity on 6/23/06 - Serenity Day! Also gonna get the box set of Firefly for Father in Law for Father's Day - make him a convert!

Keep Flying!

I am incapable of passing up the opportunity to explain my name, please be gentle with me.

According to Babylonian legend the Adapa was a sage of the Sumerian City Eridu. He was tricked into refusing the bread and water of eternal life thus explaining our human mortality.

I'm a recent convert, lucky enough to have watched & slowly savored the dvd's prior to the BDM. Can't quite figure out what to do on the 23rd here in the boonies but want to do something.

chels580 is the newest of new at #20986.
I look forward to seeing all of you coated up once we find FM, who has been running all over carrying heaps of coats to various threads.

Once again I issue the standard invite (or a couple of them, regular size, LOL) to the galley for the customary questioning of the buffet. We have a fresh box of certified grenade-free apples and some kiwi fruit to add to the display of berries, Mudder's Milk, bao, wife soup and the rest.

Dig in, for you'll appreciate the calories once you get out among 'em spreading the good word about our shows.

Woot, woot! That's me bein' without a whistle!
Heads up, ya'll! Just missed seein' FollowMal -- she went thataway in a great flurry, so you're to sit a'spell and help yourself to the fine spread on the sideboard. I've brought more strawberries and Mudder's Milk to add to the pile. Ice, damn, I forgot the ice! FloralBunny, we need more ice, please, and since you've got the coolest buns in the 'verse and the hottest contacts; would you mind making another run for me? Thanks, dear. What a love she is!

So, FreelanceFirefly, Mithrandir, Whoops, Zoerocks, Adapa, Soulquake, Chels580, and Reavers222, if you wouldn't mind giving me your 'coat size, I'll run them back to FollowMal; that way she won't have to keep racing back and forth in the storeroom looking for the exact size you need.

So glad you'all could make it on board! We love shiny newbies with shiny stories: each and every one is a blessing!

ZOEROCKS, your introduction to the Serenity/FF verse sounds so very much like my own. I'm forever telling my wife if she has a question about anything "Look it up on the internet." I think she forgets we have a computer now.Well after watching Serenity and all the Firefly I could get,it wasn't enough. I thought theres bound to be something on the www. Thats how I found this great place. Maybe its the same for some of the new folk. Every port of call we land at there are several new faces come aboard. We are all happy to have you.

Enjoy the boat
