Serenity!!!

Today's mood: Bendy

Today is the day I see Serenity. I was introduced to this series really out of the blue when I was down in LA once, visiting my brother and his girlfriend. His girlfriend was actually the one that discovered this gem and forced me to watch it. I was half-playing WoW when they turned it on, but halfway through the first episode, I logged off and was enthralled. I hadn't seen TV that good in... well... *ever*, I think.

I remember seeing the advertisements for the show when it was on the air. All the usual suspects (i.e. internet geeks) were saying that the show was good, but to me, by looking at the commercials, for some strange reason, it reminded me of a TV version of The Last Starfighter. That being said, I was saddened to know that I did nothing to help support this show when it was on the air, but I did the right thing and bought the DVD (and introduced Seppo and several others to the show), which I am sure had a fairly good impact on sales.

I hope tonight's movie does not wrap up the series, but rather, sets up a nice universe in which new stories can grow. More Firefly/Serenity can never be a bad thing.

You've hit the big time! Comment spam!

By the way, I have been requested by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company to contact you for assistance in resolving a matter. The Nigerian National Petroleum Company has recently concluded a large number of contracts for oil exploration in the sub-Sahara region. The contracts have immediately produced moneys equalling US$40,000,000. The Nigerian National Petroleum Company is desirous of oil exploration in other parts of the world, however, because of certain regulations of the Nigerian Government, it is unable to move these funds to another region.

You assistance is requested as a non-Nigerian citizen to assist the Nigerian National Petroleum Company, and also the Central Bank of Nigeria, in moving these funds out of Nigeria. If the funds can be transferred to your name, in your United States account, then you can forward the funds as directed by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company. In exchange for your accomodating services, the Nigerian National Petroleum Company would agree to allow you to retain 10%, or US$4 million of this amount.

However, to be a legitimate transferee of these moneys according to Nigerian law, you must presently be a depositor of at least US$100,000 in a Nigerian bank which is regulated by the Central Bank of Nigeria.

If it will be possible for you to assist us, we would be most grateful. We suggest that you meet with us in person in Lagos, and that during your visit I introduce you to the representatives of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company, as well as with certain officials of the Central Bank of Nigeria.

Please call me at your earliest convenience at [Phone Number]. Time is of the essence in this matter; very quickly the Nigerian Government will realize that the Central Bank is maintaining this amount on deposit, and attempt to levy certain depository taxes on it.

Yours truly,
