Ni hao all,
Just wanted to remind everyone of this weekend's Can't Stop the Serenity screening in Toronto! I am So Very Excited! :) Me and my hats and my buttons will be there, so this is the time to let me know if you want me to bring anything extra special just for you (and save yourself some shipping!).
This also means that I will likely be away from the cortex for most of the weekend (from Friday till Sunday), but rest assured that any orders recieved from Thursday to Sunday will be promptly shipped on Monday. So technically today (Wednesday) is the last day to order anything that will be shipped out this week (tomorrow). So get your orders in now, while the getting is good.
And if you're not in the Toronto area check out cantstoptheserenity.com for a Serenity screening near you! All proceeds go to charity, so it is always a good cause, as well as a good time. Equality Now thanks you! And those of us that work really hard to put these Screenings together thank you as well! :)
Until next week! Remember: you can't stop the signal!
Stay shiny,
Love,
Ma Cobb

Hey all!
***Update on Can't Stop the Serenity***
The Toronto Browncoats held the annual Can't Stop The Serenity Screening on Saturday June 21st, and I am very happy to say that the Jayne hats donated by Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe raised a total of over $250 for the charity auction for Equality Now!
That is so shiny!
And the totals are finally in! they're still a bit preliminary, but it's lookin' like we've raised a whopping :::$6,560.00!::: at the Toronto Screening for Equality Now this year! That's even more money raised than last year! And even more tickets sold! This thing just keeps getting bigger! I am so proud to be part of such an awesome crowd of Browncoats!
I just wanted to say a big huge thank-you to everyone who was involved with Can't Stop the Serenity this year, not just in Toronto, but all over the world! Thank you to all the organizers, volunteers, donaters and even those who bought tickets, t-shirts, and swag! Without all of you we couldn't be as mighty as we are (and we are!). So thank you all!
Much love, and stay shiny!
Love,
angela aka "Ma Cobb"

Cedric of the Bedlam Bards, Equality Now, and Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe!
Hey again all!
Another quick update to let you know that the Can't Stop The Serenity charity drive is in full swing, and my Jayne hats, among many other pretties, are involved!
Cedric of the Bedlam Bards is auctioning himself off for Equality Now... well... he's actually auctioning off a performance at the charity screening of the winner's choice. Check it out on ebay. as if that wasn't shiny enough for you, he also has a number of other 'verse goodies that will go to the winner including an independent flag from Firefly Cargo Bay and a Jayne hat from yours truly! The money raised goes to the Serenity Charity Screening of the winner's choice to raise money for Equality Now! This year's screenings are already looking to be a shindiggy good time!
And of course there is a lot of planning going on to get those Serenity charity screenings up and running, so be sure to check out your local screening once June rolls around and support your fellow Browncoats, as well as a worthwhile charity!
And now, for some non-screening-related news: I have updated the gallery on Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe and added a link to a newly created Guestbook, so if you've bought one of my hats in the past and would like to praise it for all to see, please sign the guestbook!
And for those of you on Facebook, please join the Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe group! Just do a search for Ma Cobb, and you should find me!
Keep flyin!
Love, Ma Cobb

Toronto "Can't Stop the Serenity" Charity Screening in Full Force!
hey all!
I just thought I'd pop by again and let everyone know that it looks as if the Toronto "Can't Stop the Serenity" Charity Screening is GO for 2008! The date and details haven't quite been set in stone as of yet, but it should be sometime around the 23rd of June 2008 (Joss's birthday, and the anniversary of the Serenity pre-screenings). I'll keep ya'll posted once the date gets closer. And of course you can always check the link above for more details as well.
Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe will be donating a few hats to the cause again this year, and it looks like it's going to be quite a shiny shindig indeed, with many great door prizes, an auction, goodies, and more! So if you're in the Toronto area, please come and join in the fun! All funds raised will be donated to a worthwhile charity: Equality Now!
And don't forget to tune into Space: The Imagination Station this afternoon at 5:30 to catch a glimpse of Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe. or if you miss that, it airs again tomorrow at 8:30am and 4:30pm.
Keep flyin!
Love,
Ma Cobb

Jayne Hats & The Toronto Serenity Charity Screening
Almost exactly a year after the first wave of Serenity pre-screenings, Toronto Browncoats are gathering for another big-screen viewing of our favourite movie: Serenity. My Jayne hats will be featured as a raffle prize this month in Toronto at Serenity Now/Equality Now: a world-wide, big-screen charity screening of Serenity to raise funds for Equality Now (one of Joss Whedon's favourite charities).
The Toronto screening will be hosted by the Toronto chapter of the Canadian Browncoats, and takes place at 4pm Saturday June 24th, 2006, at The Royal Cinema (608 College Street, Toronto). Please join us and help us raise money for a worthy cause!!
More details about Serenity Charity Screenings taking place in Canada, including Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal is available at www.can'tstoptheserenity.com. For information regarding Serenity Charity Screenings worldwide, please visit the Serenity Now/Equality Now website.
Here at Ma Cobb's Hat Shoppe we are committed to providing quality orange-ish hats to all of our customers.
I'm still taking orders, and churning out hats, even though there's been quite a lull since the Christmas rush, so keep the orders comin'!
Hats are a facimile of the hat that Ma Cobb knit for her son Jayne Cobb for his travels through the 'verse on the Firefly Class transport vessel Serenity in the aptly titled Joss Whedon television show Firefly (airing in syndication The Sci-Fi Channel in the U.S. and The Space Channel in Canada).
My hats were a smash hit at the Toronto super-con SFX/The Canadian National Exhibition, where they were being sold for charity by the Canadian Browncoats at the Serenity fan-table.
Go here to see a short excerpt from the Space channel's HypaSpace program, in which they did an interview with Adam Baldwin about the orange hat. Yours truly can also be seen acting like a complete dork in this video. Hint: I'm the one in the orange hat! Thanks to Rob, my fellow Canadian Browncoat, for sending me the video!
Also, if you are Canadian and a Browncoat, you might want to consider joining up with some fellow Canadian Browncoats. Meet some other wacky (but not scary) flans, win some very shiny 'verse-related prizes (posters, t-shirts, and swag) and even attend some mighty fine Shindigs in your area! We have a very friendly community, so feel free to join us! Everyone is welcome! We almost never throw anyone out of the airlocks, promise! ;)
