STILLSHINY, got me wondering. Where are you guys from? Obviously, STILLSHINY is from Oklahoma, as is WULFHAWK. I myself come to you live from Massachusetts, and I gather that Sarahetc is from Alabama. Isn't Haken from Hawaii? What about the rest of you? I know we have a few Canadians and British in the mix. Let's hear from them too. I really DON'T want to read your home addresses, I'm just curious where you hail from, give or take several hundred miles. Keep flying. (Wouldn't it be cool if "Keep Flying" replaced "Keep on trucking"?)

Viva Firefly!

Excuse me, Massachusetts is not a corner, it’s south and to the west of the north east corner. Maine is the corner. Maine is also where I’m from, so we do have all of the corners, you were just wrong about what they are.

Well, at the time I posted, I had to work with what I had! Now that you've responded, we're all here! I will gladly relinquish Mass's claim to the title of "corner" to a better "corner." It's all you, Christhecynic!

Hi all,

now - I guess - something that Johnnyreb hasn't expected when he started this thread:

I'm from Vienna, Austria.

This is my first post in this forum and I thought what better way to start than by giving the forum a more international touch.

Schöne Grüße aus Wien!

WOW, I wasn't expecting that. I knew that we had a few people who lurk here from Spain and Germany, but I didn't think that Austria was on board too--SHINY. Willkommen. Ich bin Sie entschied zu reagieren froh!

Ah, a fellow Ohioan. It's not really that bad here, we've got shiny trees. Lots and lots of trees. Way too many f***ing trees. Oh, and almost 7, count 'em, 7 Browncoats, and I’m not even counting my pets or imaginary friends.

I agree with you, Kaythryn, we've got to many gorram trees... and you can 4 Browncoats to the Ohio rolls, plus me... so I guess that makes 5 more. I still mantain it's too ruttin' boring here... I guess I'll go watch so more Firefly.

Blackstar, Ohio is also home to the largest (or maybe only) gourd festive. Yay! See, it's not boring, there are all kinds of super fun things to do in Ohio. Please note the sarcasm.

Oh, and when the FF movie comes out would you like to join the other 7 Ohio Browncoats in a trip to the the theater? Maybe if we can get more than our current 12 we can fill up the place, or at least a whole row.

Sounds like a shiny idea, Kaythryn... of course, by the time the movie comes out i plan to have converted more unsuspecting people into Firefly fans... lots more... one day I will convert the entire world into Firefly fans, and we will celebrate when Fox is toppled to the ground and TV's show Firefly 24/7... (insert insane laughter)

Ahem, sorry. But seriously, I'm gaining more fans at a rate of about 1 a month, so I figure that's at least a dozen more...
