Hey All,

I have a proposal to make September 30th the Official Firefly/Serenity Holiday! Yes, thats right, every September 30th, all us browncoats, in celebration of Firefly/Serenity should go out and support our favorite show by purchasing the Serenity DVD and/or Firefly DVD sets.

Thats right, once a year we all should go out and spend a little extra cash and restock our favorite DVDs (because they are so worn out they'd need to be replaced every year right? ;)

It'll let the powers at be know us Browncoats are still out there and we ain't ready to lay down arms!

Possible names for the Holiday could include
- Gorrammas

But feel free to post your own ideas on holiday names (theres certainly more creative ones that can be made than what Im capable of :))




Who's with me?

(Oh and hosting/attending Shindigs would also be appropriate on (Inter)National Firefly/Serenity Holiday.

Well we already have a number of Holidays. Joss' Birthday for one, which is also the date of the screening of Serenity. As well as Jayne day, which I proposed awhile back and falls on Adam Baldwin's Birthday on Feb. 27.

For a Sept. 30 holiday I'd recommend the following:

ETW Day or Earth-That-Was Day
Serenity Day or S-Day
Browncoat Redemption Day
Or
BDD or Big Damn Day

Actually we should have an Earth-That-Was day but on a different date. Maybe sometime in May.

Only one Caveat...Our 'Verse is waaay too big to observe just ONE DAY !

Gorramnit , we deserve at least TEN !

I've long thought that we should target September 20th (Firefly First Air-Date from '02) through September 30th (Serenity Opening Date from '05).

SEPTEMBER 20th - SEPTEMBER 30th , EVERY YEAR !

There'll be Songs , and Stories , Shindigs , Folk gettin' Nake-Ked . the Giving of Rainsticks , the Getting of Wives , the 'Twixt-ing of Nethers , Making of 'mudders' , Sitting-Around of Campfires , the Tao of fresh Bao , Slurping of Soup , Swilling of Brews , Strumming of Strings , Browning of 'Coats , Backing-Up of Bashes , Hot-ting of Cheese , Questioning of Buffets , Vampire-Slaying of Buffy's , and general Breaking-Loose of Bard-Lam...

Plus whores...

Though not necessarily in that order...

Then , each succeeding day , all Browncoats will Rise Again , and Repeat-

...I'M in !

Well if we do that, we should make it the 14 days of Firefly! Beginning on the Sep 20th and ending 14 days later (to commemorate the 14 episodes), or maybe 15 days so we can include the movie in there as well :)

Permaybehaps it SHOULD run for a bit more than a fortnight...There is much Merriment in need of Making...

The 'High-Hole-y' Days (gunshot wounds , ya know) could be the 20th and 30th , with the 20th being the 1st 'nether day' , and the ending date being the 2nd 'nether day' , so's ALL the funnest of activities could take place 'betwixt the nethers'.

This would land us in early October , which would befit a 'proper' Browncoat celebration , which can't be constrained to occur in just the part of one month...
