A bit overdue, but better late than never:

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.

Big Suck, but at least the rain is past and we are in the 60s today. Supposed to be high 50s to low 60s the rest of the week so at least one more week of riding in my future. :)

I am sure you will be fine Sister. We have only done it twice ourselves in the past 15 years since my mom normally insists on hosting. Still trying to finalize plans for Turkey Day, but no doubt it will be at mom's again. LOL

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

Or not so bad, depending on who's involved. ;)

Hump Day is here! Well, my "Thursday" since I don't do Fridays in Nov or Dec. :)

The wife type is going w/ friends to see the midnight premiere of "Catching Fire" tonight. Me? Not so much. Think it will be an Xbox Live sort of night.

The daughter type will be going up near D.C. Saturday to compete in a prelim for Miss Virginia America. College scholarship money at stake. Wish her luck.

Ahhh, Saturday! Today I am an 'elf' for 'Santa Paws' pictures with pets at a local Petsense Store. It's a fundraiser for an animal shelter that specializes in bully breeds like pit bulls. It's called 'Catch a Falling Star' and it's run by some really great people!
Have a great day, browncoats!

Nice and cold here. Saw snow flurries on the way back from Manassas late Saturday night. Been in the 30s all day today.

Agreed on the short week. We can do this standing on our heads! Then Turkey Day! Hope everyone has a great week!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. Did a bit of shopping on Thursday night after dinner as I only had one item to pick up and the deal was too good to let it pass. Stayed clear of stores on Friday.

Back to the work grind. Need a big score so I can give up this life of crime.

Had turkey sandwiches over the weekend, and alas the bird is no more.

The weather is saying we will be back up in the low 70s tomorrow and Thursday?!? What the ruttin' Hell? Oh, then back into the low 40s on Friday and rain. LOL That's Virginia. Don't like the weather? Give it a minute or two and it will change.
