Yesterday, my cousin stopped over with family, and since he wanted to test my new plasma TV, I put in Firefly. We ended up deporting the kids into the bedroom with a Disney-Video and watched the first Firefly episode. He really liked it, so when they went of, I immediately hooked up to Amazon and bought the DVD-set for him as a surprise gift. Well, this morning, I received an e-mail, that he has ordered it himself already ... (so we have a leftover for one more now!)

So, FollowMal, where is my very own Browncoat? I'm proud as Kaylee fixing the compression coil!

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Great work Esther! Congrats on your first convert!

I did. I'ts just a bit of a language problem, but he already said, that it's a cool website, and that he might brush up his English a bit.

Bravo bravissimo, Esther!

Doesn't it feel great to turn someone else on to the 'verse we love?

Since FollowMal hasn't found you yet, I'll offer you the loan of one of my recycled browncoats. Might not fit perfectly, and there'll be a few patches and stains, but it should hold you until FM catches up.

Just drop it off in the storeroom when you're done with it, so I can fix it up for another new recruit. And it'll have even more stories by then!

YAY esther! Followmal should be along shortly with your Browncoat.

I made a little convert and sent him out into the world with his very own Browncoat shirt. He went to an amusement park over the weekend and 12 people walked up to him to comment on it.

We ARE everywhere!

That's great. I wore my Serenity shirt to school and no one commented on it :( except my friends who already know I'm obsessed. Oddly enough though, I still don't have an actual Browncoat.

EDIT: Is there a way to delete posts? I didn't mean to double post, I just kind of have an annoying internet connection...

There is a German Firefly site at http://www.firefly.de.vu/ ... I might have a job for you later, Esther!

Shiny, shiny, shiny, Esther!
Recruits and a spare set of DVDs!

Temporary coat, maybe, but these
are original fresh brand new strawberries
imported from a planet where they are a
specialty.

Have a dish of them and then let's go
question the buffet.

Hey, thanks! Shiney! No need to sound so defensive, I prefer something with a few miles on it.

You can PM Followmal - she is very friendly. :)

I also have to report on success over new recruits! I loaned one of my copies of Firefly to friends for the summer and I just heard they watched the whole thing! And then they rented the movie! Wahoo! New recruits. Now just to tell them about this place...
