Y'ALL ARE JUST AWESOME SAUCE AMAZING!

Did y'all know that?? How very shiny you are? Because the numbers are pretty much done and I've gotta say, this just blew me away! Our first year and this small but big heart o'gold crew (that would be all of you who bought tickets to the BDM and supported in so many ways) raised:

*drum roll please*

$814.00 for Equality Now!!*
$148.00 for KNTR!!



WHOOOOOOOOOOT!


OMJoss that's incredible! We're going to have pictures and video and other festive things up soon. But I wanted to let y'all know that even after costs, this is what we have to give. I'll be sending a questionnaire out soon asking for feedback - and I hope y'all will fill them out and tell us what you like, what needs improvement and what you wanna see happen next year.

And those of you who got to party/fly with us, did you have a good time? What about Andy our amazing emcee??? And how about those Jayne hats? I'll have a link up here shortly for anyone who wants to order one or two. Also, we'll have a shiny recap up here of who won what and how and so and...

Also for those of you who want a tshirt, they can probably be had for $14-16 a shirt including shipping. So anyone who would like one, please feel free to email me and I'll set that up for you.

All I can say is, you guys so totally ROCK! Thank you for all your support and for an awesome time. Words just kinda fail me right now.

<3 and keep flyin' shiny!

Anne Barringer

COMPANIONS - YOU JUST CAN'T STOP WITH ONE OR TWO!

Everyone needs them there folk with hearts of gold in their lives, and you can never have too many good people around you. Especially pretty clever ones who know that in a big fight, which stick of incense to pick out and light when saying a prayer or two for the captain of your heart. This here gal knows when cargo is only little bobblin' head geisha dolls, or the big score. She's also aware of how much fun it is to be on the outside of a caper with her gun in hand, making sure the folk of Serenity feel safe and sound. Though she couldn't be with us on our special day, she did come in on our day and do something showing she's got a mighty heart of gold, she donated to our cause and helped us do some great good in this here 'Verse. The Mid-South crew want you to give a round of thanks to:

COMPANION
KARA MYRICK

Without her, we'd not be able to have that respectability we crave so's we can set down in port and have some R&R. Thank you for supporting us and our good works! WHOOOOOT!

FLYIN' THE 'VERSE WITH ANOTHER BIG DAMN HERO = WIN! \0/

So, here we are feeling pretty shiny - when the night before we're getting ready to whoot it up with all the folk coming down for our shindig, when we get a new message... and then we feel even more shiny inside while at the same time kinda quiet with awe. We surely didn't see this comin' - another Cap'n, another Big Damn Hero wants to join up with us to do good in the 'Verse!!! Talk about having your chickens come home to roost! This here Cap'n has read a good poem or two, and knows about good luck albatrosses - cause she's one of ours. The Mid-South bunch is proud and feelin' special as can be for our newest:

BIG DAMN HERO
SOPHIE MOSKOP

You can never have enough good luck, and you've just ensured we'll have some extra to spare so we can keep on doing the good works!

YOU ROCK MIGHTILY and we are in awe... so Thank you!!!

WHEN YOU NEED A GOOD BOOK, THIS GUY IS PRETTY HANDY!

He's a BELIEVER and that pretty much says a whole lot all by its ownself, doesn't it? He is spreading the good word in any way he can, and even though he's gotta stay put in Haven caring for those folk less fortunate than us, he's donatin' to the cause. He's got our backs with his good book. So now we're covered above and below, and the Mid-South Browncoats want to give a huge shout out to:

Shepherd
DANIEL PETERMAN

We're kinda sad not to be able to have you with us on our special day, but you will be in our hearts and minds for a long time to come. You sir ROCK with your believin' in our cause and we want you to know - you are very, very special!

Someone very special is donating his time and his talent to help our ship fly with a big dose of humor as well as good works! That's right Memphis, for your entertaining delight, we have a VERY SHINY EMCEE - the one, the only...

THE "APPLE" OF OUR EYES...
ANDY FLEMING!!!


Andy Fleming is a stand-up, improv, and sketch comedian who's currently honing his craft all over Memphis and the surrounding areas. Andy started doing stand-up in December 2006, and six months later was a finalist in the Comedy Tennessee's 2nd annual Funniest Person in Memphis contest. Since then, he has won the "Funniest Person in Memphis Media" contest, and took 3rd place in the Memphis Comedy Search.

Why yes, both Andy and The Wiseguys available to come do comedy at your function, thank you for asking. Just send a message to the appropriate MySpace for more info.

(And who knows, Andy might even do it for free if it's for charity and Jewel Staite is involved.) <---------- SHHHHHHH don't tell him that Jewel is only going to be present in movie form... okay? LOL Cause then this bunch will be on our doorstep...

THE MORE COMPANIONS THE BETTER!

This here Companion is well 'Versed in the art of entre nous - she's a veritable intergalactic woman of mystery. She seeks to give because she has a heart of gold, and while words will never fail her, she is the soul of discretion. Cap'n Tightpants might say she's fast like a freak when you give her a sword, but he also knows how very, very shiny she is. And she's even shinier to the Mid-South Browncoats for being an enigma cloaked in her fine silken cape of mystery.

Everyone give a silent shout out to:

Companion
WOMAN OF MYSTERY

And so to you, companion in spirit - we give thanks and salute you!
