I have just been wondering, and if this has been done before - so sorry - but I think it is interesting that this show appeals to such a wide base.

We all have 2 things in common - we are all uncommonly intelligent, else we would be watching reality tv instead of living virtual lives. And we all love Serenity/Fire Fly.

But was is our makeup?

I will start:
Female
41
Single/divorced
IT Field
USA
Catholic
White
Irish/German/Scottish descent

I bet we cross all lines of Race, age, sex, etc.

My advice? Run screaming for the hills and don't look back!

Seriously, in the UK at least they're both some of the hardest proffessions to break into, but for different reasons. There are only about 3 or 4 colleges that do a decent vetenary science course so they can affort to be REALLY picky (I mean top 0.1 percentile plus lots of relevant volunary experience type of thing).
Unlike many of my classmates, I didn't want to be a vet 'cos I wanted to study healthy animals. I got a pretty decent degree but the fact that 6 years later I still haven't found an ecology related job shows how competitive things are. That's why I've gone back to Uni to get an Animal Science MSc.

All I can say is that out of the 50 or so classmates I started with, only about 6 went on to do anything biological, but they are extremely happy (if poor!) so if he's really committed I say good luck to him!!

Gender: Female.
Age: As old as my tongue, a little older than my teeth
Status: Owned by cats. No smallhumans.
Occupation: Tech writing, server admin, low-level development (more like 'playing with code-legos')
Location: North America, at the moment
Religion: guerilla existentialist
Race: ...beyond 'human', it doesn't matter. However, when the moon waxes full, I stealthily become a turnip.
Ancestry: Lotsa lotsa people. And none who could tan worth a damn.

And on these things, I mix lies with truth. And add a hint of spice for that little extra flair. (Usually wasabe. Ever watch someone who wasn't warned eat a huge chunk of wasabe? It's quite amusing.)

And you can either say that they were equal opportunity, opportunistic, or just re-e-eally friendly.

Are you really open-minded or do you just say that? I have to ask as I have encountered a few open minded individuals who would then defend one particular religion and weren't actually interested in hearing about any others, even though they insisted they didn't follow anything.
Just curious.

I don't need to be a Browncoat to cross such lines, you should see my extended family.

My older French cousin is two parts African (different parts of Africa I mean, both black though) one part Indian (as in India) and one part Vietnamese. Her sister is 100% Korean, her parents are totally white in all possible ways (one is French, the other is everything I am except the Native American bit.)

I'm whiter than white. Sort of a pale blueish shade really. It takes me about three weeks of tanning to turn white. Of course I burn like a piece of clothing made in Taiwan, so I end up a strawberry red for the summer anyway.

As someone once said to me, I think your sarcasm meter is a might off.

As one of the few black people on this forum, I can tell you that sometimes when we are surrounded by a large group of white or mostly white people, it is common for us to make jokes like this one. In most cases, no harm is meant in any way. So relax, it's just black folk's humor.

And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you."
