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

As promised, a shiny new thread for the troops:

Old thread:

If you're interested in joining this ever growing circle of Firefly fans, whose visual theme is based on the Independent Army seen in Firefly and in the visual companions, visit this thread to read the specifics, which are all very well laid out:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We represent a newly-formed unit of Independent soliders at the outbreak of the hostilities (prior to Du Khang and Serenity Valley).
First and foremost, remember that this is a fan-based organization, and our first rule is "Show up. March. Have Fun!"

Our inaugural march took place at DragonCon in Atlanta in September of 2007.

We do have a few rules and regulations that must be met in order to be considered as a member, including uniform requirements and weapons requirements. These will be outlined below. Please be sure to read over all the information and confirm that you can meet all of these requirements before applying for membership. We are not trying to keep people out, but we do want to present a united, uniform Battalion of Independent soldiers, and one of the best ways to do this is to look the same.

Besides banks and government employees who even celebrates that holiday. LOL

We will ignore the fact it is the Big Suck and instead focus on the fact that the sun it out and it is a beautiful day despite the cold.

Cool and clear here. Watching that snow storm that is pummeling the Plain states right now. Talk it may come this way. Forecast calling for sleet and rain pretty much all day Saturday. I'll be in Roanoke as the wife contends for the Mrs Virginia International crown. Wish her luck!

Friday Eve troops. Hope everyone has big plans for the weekend.

Cold and rainy today. Ugh. At least I am stuck at work. Now if I could just get that full scale Serenity built and operational, find a crew, I could fly off this rock and give up this life of crime.

Sounds about right, but sure don't seem fittin'.

Rain has stopped here, got over being sick, and I got to ride today so life is good. Girl Scout cookie order came in today so the wife will be happy she gets her Tag Alongs. Ain't right a skinny woman being able to put away a box of those things and not putting on an ounce.

They are indeed. The box in my freezer keeps calling out to me, but so far I have resisted.

You might be right.

What is this bright, glowing orb in the sky? Looking at it is painful to the eye. LOL

Supposed to get up into the low 60s by Sunday and the long range forecast is calling for mid to high 60s next week. Yes please! I am ready to ride!!!

Yep, kind of over the winter thing.

Sunny today and clear, but this wind is a bit much. Still, got to ride and any day I ride is a good day.

Pretty much how it was too! LOL Got about four hours in the saddle enjoying the sun and warm temperature! Warmer temps this week so with the exception of tomorrow due to rain I will be riding in every day.

Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend. We will not speak of the day that shall not be named.

Today's weather is good. 55, mostly sunny, and I got to ride.

Been thinking we need a motorcycle for the 76th. Maybe something with a sidecar and an MG.

We should talk indeed! I can see it now! It would be all manner of shiny to have a motorcycle / sidecar w/ an MG mount riding ahead of the troops.

Friday Eve, rode the bike in today, got cold beer waiting at home. Life is good.
