          Dude, I don't even remember typing that, I think my friend used my account.

          Maybe my memory just doesn't serve and there was an autospell typo.

          Maybe I was delerious from all the math homework.

        Hmm if we are possibly going with a link to serenity then I am going with reclaimer going into hiding somewhere and hacking a coms system to communicate with Bold…. lying in wait to get bold to go somewhere and then ambush him and push him into space….
        also we have allready seen reclaimer cast a hologram of himself therefore could he not project one of those to draw bold out??

            One and the same. Probably one of the greatest shows ever. Fox didn't know what a good thing they had.

            Well, I understand network ratings and how much they drive a network's decision to keep or cut a show. I'm sure they had no idea how much of a runaway hit it would end up becoming.

            September 16, 2009 at 5:22 pm | #

            See, then, you're missing out. Serenity is a good movie, but it makes a lot more sense when seen in the context of the original show. If you go over to Hulu, you can watch the entire show for free.

    @larrykan: if i'm reading this correctly, i believe the smoker program would be some sort of camo program, of course, this IS Jim we are talking about, so it could be something completely different…

    nice edition by the way, built up suspense, loved it _

    very nice jim, cant wait to see how tran upsets not only viper's plans, but ferial's plans as well, since she caused some havoc with his/their streams in the past. She may be the advantage the reclaimer has

      I'm pretty sure that any of Viper's original plan have been fully dashed by the virus somehow. Am I right?

      • Jim Stitzel
        September 16, 2009 at 11:11 am | #

        More or less. They ended up just being more pawns in Ferial's game.

            Its good. Keeps things nice and suspenseful. I just hope you write a synopsis when this story arc wraps up (its not that bad).

            I've watched neither, well except for half of the first episode of firefly online. 1.5 hours of sitting and watching stuff gets boring pretty fast.

            Maybe one of these days when I have time.

            If only the whole world really was your comatose imagined little world, then there'd be random stuff all over the place, the sky would rain pickles and cheese spread, alarm-clocks would make bizarre noises, and people would can themselves on railings and such MUCH more often. You know, assuming you have ADD, like me.

          Yeah, I got Bungie-rushed, which isn't usually a problem, but apparently ODST-themed screenshots were very popular yesterday. Took me an hour to fix it once I got home last night (and involved a quick request over to urk to remove the post from the Comm Chatter that shanghaied me). :)
