i DO aim to misbehave

I posted a thread calling all Minnesota browncoats once, but I've recently had cause to broaden my horizons, thanks to a fella in Wisconsin I've been conversing with of late. If you call the Upper Midwest home, now's your chance to let the 'verse know who you are!

I'll start - *waving merrily* Hi there! I'm Channain and I live in a western suburb of Minneapolis. I'm a Firefly fan from the glorious beginning and have been cluttering up FFF.net with my humble opinions since January 2003. Lately I've been spending some time putting FFF.net in the internet history of the shiny new Macs at my school (returning adult, graphics design major). I draw, therefore I am.

Your turn!

Added Enticements:
Some preliminary plans are in the works to have a Minne-Shindig as part of MarsCon here in Minneapolis in March of 2005. The theme for the convention this year is "Galactic Pirates and Mercenaries" - Now does that sound like us, or what?

If y'all live close enough, we could start having our own little gatherings, maybe on a quarterly basis.

Hey There! Also a Browmcoat from day 1, I live in Green Bay, WI. I have replied to posts a couple times here. Have a couple Browncoat friends from Eau Claire, so a gatherring in the Minneapolis area would not be hard to do. Might even be able to get my Milwaukee friends interested. Any other G.B. fans out there?

RUSTY

Alright, I'll bite. I usually prefer to stick to the seedy shadows (thats just the kind of guy I am) but, as they say, "When in Rome..."

I live in the beautiful Twin Cities. I have also been a follower of all things Firefly from back in those lowly days when it was just a misunderstood television show on the widow-maker ie Fox....

Now I must go back into shadows and lurk...

HELL'S KITTEN

Heya. I'm feelin' all alone out here... I'm in a western suburb of Minneapolis, too. Also have folks in Milwaukee (Wisconsin), a cabin in Steven's Point and friends in Madison, so I'm willing to travel (if the pay-off's good enough

). MarsCon 2005? A Minne-Shindig would be the only reason for me to go. I'll bring Vera.

I knew y'all were out there somewhere.

Based on the response, we might have to find somewhere inbetween for a proper Midwest Browncoat Gathering.

NUISANCE

I live in Winona, MN. I'm not sure if I'd be able to make it to a shindig. I sure would like to though. All the people around me are tired of me talking about Firefly. It'd be nice to talk to folk who wouldn't wear out so soon. Heck, that's why I'm at FFF.net. :-)

What if we tried a virtual Shindig to begin with?

PINGJING

I'm also from the Southwest suburbs. I've been a browncoat since my sister introduced me to the DVD, all of four weeks ago. So I'm kind of a newbie. I'd love to meet other browncoats in the area.

Hey there, Northwest suburb of the Twin Cities here. Myself, the hubby, and the kids have been with Firefly from day one and here at FFF since April of 2003. The kids don't give me much time to post by I try to get my two cents in every now and then.

I've converted a few in our area and I'm still working on a few more.

I wonder, have you ever checked out the site recently. Time to call all the browncoats again.
