  • Its amazing how many people have fallen for the writing of Firefly. I didn’t believe the hype until I watched it on DVD and now I’m a fan.

  • Ah, Firefly. 1 Season of bliss. Glad you found it. Shiny, eh?

  • TWILIGHT ZONE!! Awesome. Thats my New Year’s Eve every year…. get the kids in bed (somehow) and watch the Zone until I can’t keep my eyes open. It always takes a real special blend of coffee to get me going on New Year’s day and I don’t even drink anymore.

  • I hope that you’ll find the time at some point to post about the college app experience over on your WTM blog.
