			<description><![CDATA[So Firefly is awesome and should never have been cancelled, yadda yadda yadda.  Anyway, the episode Out Of Gas is possibly my favorite. It has a surreal time structure and cements the characters through flashbacks and current scenes. But what I love the most about it is that none of them would have survived without the actions of each other.  <br />
<br />
Jayne shut the door and saved the oxygen.<br />
Kaylee showed Cap how to fix the engine.<br />
Doc showed him where the adrenaline is, which kept him alive long enough to put the part in.<br />
Wash set up the beacon.<br />
etc etc.<br />
<br />
If each of them had not been exactly who they are, they'd all be dead.<br />
<br />
Now my sister saw it and loved the series, but hates this episode.  She feels it has a poor narrative structure and a weak ending.  The way she paints it, there is a random catastrophe, a lot of dramatic nothings, and a deux ex machina at the end to resolve a problem that was bullshit in the first place.<br />
<br />
So what do you think?<br />

<br />
A modest goal: to get past the 24 hour cutoff.  (` :O)<br />
<br />
A not-so-modest goal: to get a T printed, baby!  8-)<br />
<br />
Guess the score contests are popular here and for good reason because they are a fun way to generate buzz.  Thought I'd do something different.  So guess the score and win a year's supply of bubblegum!*  Have fun out there.<br />
<br />
<i>*Year's supply is relative and will will be negotiated with the winner.  No fair saying &quot;I chew a case of bubblegum a day every day.&quot; If MalcolmMan plays and wins, he gets a different prize because he recently revealed that he hates gum.</i>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Yeah, <a href="http://pbskids.org/wordgirl/">Word Girl</a> is a kids show, and PBS may not be as cool as other cartoon networks, but this show is oddly compelling.   It has hilarious references to old school superhero shows like Superman, like the poses she strikes are direct homage.  ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I'm new-ish here so forgive my ignorance, but has Néhérénia been printed?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.threadless.com/submission/148894/Renaissance?streetteam=DragonStar"><img src="http://www.threadless.com/subbanner/148894/banner1.png" width="220" height="119" border="0" alt="Renaissance - Threadless, Best T-shirts Ever" /></a><br />

<br />
The score for Renaissance puts it just a tenth of a point outside the top 25 scores of all time.  But Néhérénia's profile shows no prints.  Help me out here?<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Hello.  Quick &quot;Threadless cred&quot; intro :) :  I've been browsing for years, buying for a few (love the Spoiled T!), and recently scoring designs/offering critiques.  Now I'd like to submit a design.<br />
<br />
In order not to waste your time or mine, I'd be grateful for some brief answers from those in the know:<br />
<br />
To submit a critique in this blog forum, you need a 640 x 640-800 png, a thumbnail, and some words of introduction?  Or do you need to submit the final vector file?<br />
<br />
I've read that all colors must be on their own layer, but I can't find that in the official submission kit or &quot;rules.&quot;  Is there a FAQ I'm overlooking?<br />
<br />
The upper color limit is 8, so how are &quot;watercolor&quot; type T's being submitted?  Are they really detailed vector art that mimic watercolors, or is there a separate type of entry?<br />
<br />
Thanks for any hints!  Looking forward to talking T's with you.]]></description>
