Third Time's The Charm....

It's that time again. Recently, a wave went out across the Cortex:

If you've the talent (and the nerve), design the 2011 CSTS Logo.

Once again, a few creative Browncoats - myself included - took up the call.

Here are the 2 Options I came up with:

Option A:







Option B:







We sent the signal out and a few of the brave and bold with their brilliant artistical skillz took up the gauntlet (and their pallets) to create this year’s promotional art.

We know it’s gonna be a challenge – but we need you, the good folk of the ‘Verse, to help us choose which one will become the official artwork for Can’t Stop the Serenity 2011! You can only vote once and you’ve only got until March 6 to get your voice heard and your vote counted.

So vote and then tell your friends to spread the word and come help us choose the best of the best.

Happy Halloween, Everybody!!!

Mal: Does, uh... does this seem kind of tight?

Kaylee: Shows off your backside. Did you see the chandelier? It's hovering.

Mal: What's the point of that, I wonder?

Kaylee: Oh, mangos!

Mal: I mean, I see how they did it. I just ain't gettin' the why.

Kaylee: These girls have the most beautiful dresses. And so do I. How 'bout that?

Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable.

Kaylee: Yes, sir, Cap'n Tight-Pants.

Thank The Maker

In what can only be an answer to a very old prayer, we're finally getting the chance to be part of the magic that first took place a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.......

The twisted geniuses at Star war Uncut are handing over the keys of the asylum to we inmates.

Here's our chance to film our own version of Star Wars, albeit 15 seconds at a time....

This is too good to pass up!!!!

Who's with me?

Two Weeks



Two weeks ago today, Babs and my world was forever turned on its head.

Peter Alec Stratton was born September 17, 2009 at 10:45pm. Weight was 8 lbs 1oz. Length was 19 3/4 inches.



Both Mom and Baby are doing well. Pete's had a bit of jaundice at first, but seems to be getting past that rather quickly. His 2 week check-up is later on today, and we'll see if he's back up to his birth weight (he was down to 7lbs 5oz when he came home).

He is truly a blessing and Babs and I couldn't be happier!!!



Thanks for all the well wishes and support these past 14 days. We look forward to seeing how Pete will change our lives for the rest of our lives.
