Two things of note...

First off, it's 2:30am and I've been at work since 9pm last night. I'll probably be sleeping here. Thank goodness they forgot to block Hulu here and I've been watching Firefly.


Second, and unbeleivable...LITS ADMITTED TO ME SHE HAS NOT SEEN FIREFLY!!

It... it can't be...

Lits, listen to me.  This is a show for you.  You will love this show.  I am not saying these things because I love the show.  I am saying these things because I know that you will love the show.

Give it three episodes.  That's all I ask.  You may even be hooked after two.  Part of me wants to tell you to wait until July, so I can bring my PS3 to California and we can watch them on Blu-Ray. But the other part of me would never ask anyone to wait to see Firefly.  I am torn.

Whatever happens, you have my solemn vow that you will not be disappointed.  And we, the Firefly fanboys (or "Browncoats" to the initiated), will always be here, waiting patiently to welcome you amongst our ranks.

Fuse, tell me you're coming out to LA.  I need to give you a man hug.  Y'know... if you're cool with that.

I think I saw Serenity once on Pay-Per-View. I don't remember much about it, though...


...And we will strike down upon those of Darkness, with great vengeance and Furious Anger, those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.

Unsure yet. If so, that's fine as long as you don't cup the buns.

Can someone explain to me how this is not illegal?:

It was revealed today that the presidents of the company I work for revoked our 401k matching at the end of 2009. They took that money and put it into the company's profit, so that the company could appear to have made our productivity goal, when in reality we fell quite short. This appearance of profit ("false profit"... get it?) allowed our parent company to reward annual bonuses to our company presidents. The employees received a very small percentage of profit sharing which was taxed, where our 401k matching would not have been taxed.

Long story short: My co-workers and I got royally screwed on our retirement, while our employers went to sleep on large piles of money.

Many people are gearing up to quit because of this. Something inside me tells me that what my employers did was very very illegal. Any law students willing to offer advice?
