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.

Did you see Ender's Game Sister? If so, how was it? Want to see it, but don't know anyone who has seen it yet. Going to see Thor this coming Friday.

Cold snap hit us again last night driving out the warm weather. Supposed to be in the low 20s the next couple of nights. Cold is definitely settling in sooner than last year. I rode the bike right up until the week before Christmas last year and at this rate I won't make it until the first of December. *sigh*

Hey Browncoat1!…Have you read Enders' Game? I was concerned (from the trailers I'd seen) that it would not follow the book…but it did! Well worth seeing (the movie, that is.) I shall go on record now that I want a fully functioning Battle Room for Christmas.

Hope everyone is having a good week so far. Big Suck in the rear view and we're heading towards Hump Day.

Welcome to the 76th SeraphsRevenge! Good to have you aboard!

I do believe the social control number is automatically assigned by the board. I will have to ask Zeph to verify that fact. I will also ask to see why you are waiting on approval. The traffic at the board is a bit slow due to holidays and post Dragon Con blues.

We'll get you straight, have no fear. Again, welcome!

Tom and I used to talk about "Browncoat Island" where we would set up an independent Browncoat Nation living free from meddlesome governments and their need to try to dictate to folks how to live. It'd sure be nice.

Course I'm with you Sister in that I would have a scale model of Serenity bulit to live in. ;)

Sun is out after heavy rains last night. Too bad it was too icy out this morning to break out the bike since it is supposed to hit 50 today. Supposed to get up to 60 tomorrow and it will be sunny. Itching to get back in the saddle.

Wish we could be there too Sister. Hope your shindig goes well. We are going to a party some friends are throwing. They always have shiny parties.

Hope everyone's Big Suck goes well.

Thanks Sister! Hope you have a great shindig and a wonderful New Year's!

Our party should be fun. Usual suspects attending and we always have a good time with this group.

I'm cold enough in England & we don't even have snow... it hasn't even dropped below freezing, officially (although there's been ice on the car a couple of nights when we've been out...)

Hello - by the way! I haven't been in here forever!

13 degrees here this morning, but dry. Screw it! I rode the bike to work. I got enough cold weather gear not to feel it too much and I miss being in the saddle. Not riding is an itch that drives you crazy. Besides I'd rather be cold in the saddle than warm in a cage.

Hope everyone is keeping warm. Only 239 days, 19 hours and 40 minutes until D*C! Then we can sweat our butts off. LOL

Friday at long last! Don't even care that it is raining and the forecast has it raining all day Saturday too. Sounds like a PS4 game fest weekend to me! :)

Sorry to hear about the rain Sister. Not only for your sake, but because it will be hitting us tomorrow. Sunny and 60 here today, so I got to ride into work. Not so much tomorrow though. :(

Not too much on the NFL playoffs since my team blew the wild card. Just once before I die I'd like to see the Dolphins win the AFC Championship and make it into the Super Bowl.
