I was first alerted to the Firefly Season 2 Project by /., but I felt it was worthy of sharing with the world here as well. The project consists of a group of browncoats who have formed an indepentant production company that is pursuing the rights to continue Firefly as a series. After hearing Loni Peristere speak at one of the special advance previews of Serenity, I had little hope that firefly would ever make it back on TV. The reason I still I hope in the project is because it doesn’t propose to put Firefly back on TV, but rather is looking at offering monthly DVD’s, on-demand television or via streaming download.

All they’re really looking for right now is help determing what their target demographic is, and you can help by filling out the season 2 project survey.

Whenever I get an idea for a project, sleep, work or WoW seem to get in the way. One of them needs to go.

The obsession of the week is a blast from the past: Rubik’s Cube. I don’t actually own a Rubik’s Cube, but I’ve put one on my masterwish and kicked up its priority to I must have it.

I’m not saying that I want to play with a Rubik’s Cube more then I want to play WoW, but between calls at work I’ve been playing with a flash version. I’ve even tried to cheat, but I still have problems with the last couple of steps. I’m sure my skill would improve more quickly with the shiny plastic version.

A bunch of Browncoat’s from the Plymouth area are going to go to Concord on Friday to see Serenity. Contact me through the usual (or unusual) channels if you’re interested in going.

So here we are in the third week in August, and this is only my second post for the month. On the upside, traffic is way up. I guess the best way to promote my website is to ignore it completely.

Does anyone else notice that the more they pay attention to their finances the more dire things seem? Everytime I balance my checkbook, or even just bring my ledger (all of which is electronic, BTW) up to date, I get a deep understanding of just how broke I am. On a posative financial note, thanks to the bounty I’m getting for dragging B.K., kicking and screaming, into Corporate America, I’ll be able to finish paying off my car in September instead November (Yes, my company pays a “bounty” to employees who bring in qualified workers for open positions). As I look at what I just said, I realize that it’s not a real financial gain. I mean, the bounty is a real financial gain, but whether I use it to pay off my car, or just use the bounty for whatever I would be using the money I’m not puting into car payments between September and November makes no difference to my total short-term financial outlook. Regardless, I think the moral boost due to owning my car and having one less check to write every month will be a good thing.

Word on the street is there may be another tech support position here opening up. Anybody interested?

Torn from the pages of /., a new Serenity trailer was played on Sci-Fi last night and is now being hosted here thanks to Apple. I think it’s shinier then the old one.

Am I the only one who gets all tingly when River throws down?

The second episode of Joss Whedon’s Fireflytonight at 7pm EST on the the Sci-Fi channel. In Serenity – part 2 the we learn more about the naked woman found in the crate at the end of the last episode, how business is done on the outer planets, and what goes bump in the night in outer space. Fort hose of you who missed the first episode, you’re in luck: Sci-Fi will be re-airing Serenity – part 1 at 6pm – right before part 2.

Just 63 days until Serenity, the movie based on Firefly hits the theaters.

Just a reminder that Firefly is on the Sci-Fi channel tonight at 7pm EST. Tonight’s episode is Serenity – part 1 (not be confused with Serenity – the movie), which gives the viewer an action-packed introduction to the Firefly universe, introduces all the main characters and ends in a cliffhanger (in the tradition of all good “To be continued” programs). If you can’t catch it, I’d recommend checking out the DVDs.

Sidenote: I would’ve just made my earlier post about this sticky, but that feature isn’t built into WordPress yet.

Various sources are reporting that the international version of the Serenity trailer has been released. The original trailer is hosted at Apple.com.
