mornin' Nico.

I assume you are talking about a Serenity screening, and I think that's a good thing to spend your saved money on, if anything.

Indeed it is. Plus, they'll be showing the River Tam Sessions (amongst other things), which is shiny, as I've never seen them before.

I haven't seen all of them (River Tam sessions), just a couple. Shiny that you get to see them.

When I met with the Atlanta Browncoats last Sunday, they were still working on a venue for the screening here. I hope I can go, I still have yet to see it on the big screen.

Penguin, that site was taken down a long time ago, I think. I've been trying to find a mirror for it, without success. I've also been hunting for some raw footage from the stunt company that did Serenity of Summer rehearsing and performing the bar fight. That's disappeared, too.

Coffee & Bagels this morning! Anyone want a bagel?

I have the R Tam sessions saved. If I remember right, I got them from whisper graphics but I don't know if they're still up there... *checks* Yep, look here under 'Serenity' http://www.whispergraphics.net/ you can also get the extended gag reel under 'Firefly'. She's got a great site.
The Atlanta airport has trains, too? Hah! Peoples can't all be making fun of DIA anymore! *chuckle*
I missed my ming huai and Kel in Haven this morning *edit* And then they both appeared while I was posting this, and now I hope I haven't missed them by not responding for awhile!
And I want to go back to bed. I shouldn't. I have to look for work, and also keep myself on a schedule that can get to class at 7am. again.

Ok I almost choked laughing over the Atlanta info... by the way we do actually know where all the Peachtree streets go and yes we do say Ponce de Leon that way...
A few more things you should know

1- clerks, strangers, and others will call you Sugar, Honey, and other sweet things. It is not a come on, we call everyone that until we learn your name.
2- If you need to say something nasty or rude about someone, you must follow it with the phrase " Bless his heart" or " Bless her heart" ( it's a rule )
3- Do NOT wear flip flops anywhere for any reason. It's tacky!
4-You will see many people who appear "crazy" they are actually " not right in the head" and will have a family member or other person nearby. Simply play along with the delusion or what have you until the caretaker arrives to remove the person...this is our mental health system. We think it is much more civilized than y'alls asylum system.
5-Do not use y'all in a sentence unless you understand it's grammatical purpose and proper pronunciation...we can tell and it's the equivalent of reading German phrases out of the German tour guide book without understanding them.

well here's how it works
* Use of the contraction y'all as the second person plural pronoun.[1] Its uncombined form — you all — is used less frequently. [2]

* When speaking about a group, y'all is general (I know y'all) —as in that group of people is familiar to you and you know them as a whole, whereas all y'all is much more specific and means you know each and every person in that group, not as a whole, but individually ("I know all y'all.") Y'all can also be used with the standard "-s" possessive.

"I've got y'all's assignments here."

* Y'all is distinctly separate from the singular you. The statement, "I gave y'all my payment last week," is more precise than "I gave you my payment last week." You (if interpreted as singular) could imply the payment was given directly to the person being spoken to — when that may not be the case.

Think that is bad? I did my Basic Training at Ft Knox, KY. After about a month I caught such a thick accent that my parents hardly recognized me on the phone.

The really bad thing is that my parents are from New York so I already have a slight York accent on some of my words and that stayed.

So I had a Southern accent with a New York drawl it was really wierd!

I already talk like a yankee with a Southern accent, and we have a pretty diverse group of background in our rooms as well (Michigan, Florida, Canadia, Washington, Alabama, Georgia, Maryland [originally Texas I think]). I think I still sounded like me after last years' Con.

MsG thanks, I will get it when I get home.

mmmm, I had good onion rings and a good reuben yesterday. :)

I am out for the day, just a quick reminder for everyone:

Tomorrow is Towel Day

http://www.towelday.kojv.net/

What do I do?

Carry your towel with you throughout the day to show your participation and mourning.

When do I do it?

May 25th.

Where do I do it?

Everywhere.

Why a towel?

To quote from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
A towel, it says, is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitch hiker can have. Partly it has great practical
value - you can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapours; you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a mini raft down the slow heavy river Moth; wet it for use in hand-to-hand-combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or to avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (a mindboggingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can't see it, it can't see you - daft as a bush, but very ravenous); you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough.
More importantly, a towel has immense psychological value. For some reason, if a strag (strag: non-hitch hiker) discovers that a hitch hiker has his towel with him, he will automatically assume that he is also in possession of a toothbrush, face flannel, soap, tin of biscuits, flask, compass, map, ball of string, gnat spray, wet weather gear, space suit etc., etc. Furthermore, the strag will then happily lend the hitch hiker any of these or a dozen other items that the hitch hiker might accidentally have "lost". What the strag will think is that any man who can hitch the length and breadth of the galaxy, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through, and still knows where his towel is is clearly a man to be reckoned with.
