Sorry if this is a repost but does anyone know where I could find a copy of
"The Hero of Canton" that they sing about Janye Cobb?

Thanks,

Record it off the Special Features of the FIREFLY DVD set. Or do you
mean the version you hear in the episode?

The Man They Call Jayne - from the tv series Firefly

Jayne. The man they call Jayne...

He robbed from the rich
and he gave to the poor.
Stood up to the man
and gave him what for.
Our love for him now
ain't hard to explain.
The hero of Canton
the man they call Jayne.

Our Jayne saw the mudders' backs breakin'.
He saw the mudders'lament.
And he saw the Magistrate takin'
every dollar and leavin' five cents.
So he said "You can't do that to my people."
He said "You can't crush them under your heel."
So Jayne strapped on his hat
and in 5 seconds flat
stole everythin' Boss Higgins had to steal.

He robbed from the rich
and he gave to the poor.
Stood up to the man
and gave him what for.
Our love for him now
ain't hard to explain.
The hero of Canton
the man they call Jayne.

Now here is what separates heroes
from common folk like you and I.
The man they call Jayne
he turned 'round his plane
and let that money hit sky.

He dropped it onto our houses
he dropped it into our yards.
The man they called Jayne
he stole away our pain
and headed out for the stars!

Here we go!

He robbed from the rich
and he gave to the poor.
Stood up to the man
and gave him what for.
Our love for him now
ain't hard to explain.
The hero of Canton
the man they call Jayne.

No, I'm not. The usual lies, from the usual mob, now evidently hiding
behind fake data so they can't be killfiled. The links in my FAQ are all
up-to-date, and, more importantly, useful.

It's amazing how bad the "old FAQ" is, you have to see it to believe it. It
has little to do with the fact it's 3 years out-of-date. Check mine out in
a window side-by-side and you'll see almost a textbook case of rambling junk
vs. polished prose. It's here:
http://snipurl.com/k8ui

I'm surprised anyone had the temerity to ever post a link to it again. The
original author disclaimed it as a poor lark. Anyone can view the two with
two clicks. Why Hova persists in making a fool of himself in public remains
a mystery.

Hmm, what was that again about you not using one of the tinyurl type
services?

Oh, just a snippet from your site too Asshat....

hr>OP-ED:  If you've read this far, you know
plenty more than you need to.  Below, I'm putting links to some very
inessential but just
darn fun Firefly and Serenity
resources.  Most were
posted in the newsgroup and proved popular, so I am adding them
here. 
These are outside the purview of necessary FAQ stuff, and are for the
fans and
those who would just like more of the fun.  I hope you enjoy.

THATS RIGHT! Only I TELL THE TRUTH, people! That is why I proudly sign
my REAL NAME! My parents are Potato and Bed Bugged, from Pocatello
Idaho, and they PROUDLY named me ATLAS for my enormous but robust EGO!

Just because I am too stupid to know how to killfile people who change
their username, doesn't mean that I am an ignorant SOB, does it?

Interesting note....

Assfucked sent me some hate email yesterday, quite interesting. Yes, I'm
the one that turned him in for spamming, I also reported his hate-mail to
google/gmail for proper attention by their abuse desk.

So you were the little lying sack of shit that made that false complaint.
As you probably also know, I filed a formal complaint at your e-mail
provider's desk as well, which was easy to discern from your address at
love...@gawab.com

What I sent last night was hardly "hate mail," but it would indeed be
interesting if the two e-mail providers compared which of us engages in
abuse. And I'm glad it flushed you out, though you still are nothing but a
shithead usenet handle. Just keep the same one, OK? <plonk>

More on "Waffler," he/she/it changes the e-mail address AND name with EVERY
post so no one can ever killfile. Undoubtedly the same whiner appears under
other names, too, what are the odds? When you look at the posts, they
contribute nothing, ever, except whining. And the run-to-mommy approach
hasn't gotten results anywhere yet with any of the formal complaining.

Try to imagine a lower level of being than this. It ain't easy.

If you think it's low-budget and immature to "rotate" your name and e-mail
addy with each post so that no one can killfile you, please let
Waffler/Wafffler know at the real address, which is love...@gawab.com

Untraceable headers on this jerkoff, he posts from Google and rotates name

as Usenet trolls get, remember I snagged his real addy at
love...@gawab.com and I also looked up the abuse desk there which is
ab...@gawab.com, though admittedly it almost makes no sense to even pay
attention. The only worthwhile reason to pursue him is the danger he
presents to everyone by filing false complaints against those with whom he
disagrees. But the poor schmuck only does it because he's ineffectual in
his life, so you need perspective. At any rate, I'm cc'ing this abuser to

You continually spam your firefly FAQ to groups that aren't even about

you can't even trace a perfectly traceable NON-google header.

Now I'm a danger to the internet? WHY? Because I showed you what happens

Yeah, he doesn't know that it's good etiquette to change your name with
every post, so that no one can avoid seeing your posts. You could teach

Wow, that's as annoyed as I've ever seen you get, I appreciate the support.

I don't really understand why the group concerning one of the finest shows
in the annals of TV attracts so many of Usenet's lowest freaks. They
contribute nothing but bile.

Nevertheless, there are positive people here always open to productive and
intriguing discussion of FIREFLY, as well as a sexy or fun diversion or two.
Welcome to you all.

At any rate, if you're new, here's some fun links. My FAQ gives you the
lowdown as fast as possible and is comprehensive if dig into the links:
http://snipurl.com/k8ui

I described and "rated" (a 1 to 4 scale, based on my personal opinion, but
with reasons) all the shows and books here:
http://snipurl.com/krwl

FIREFLY made its mark, in part, by being true to science. Here's a brief
discussion of the show's decision to reject the (so far absurd) concept of
stuff moving faster than light-speed.
http://snipurl.com/jtgy

The women of FIREFLY and SERENITY are unusually attractive, so I posted some
hi-resolution pictures at these links, all purely G-rated:
http://snipurl.com/krg1
http://snipurl.com/lh1o
http://snipurl.com/kqa2
http://snipurl.com/l70f
http://snipurl.com/kqd9
http://snipurl.com/lt6x
http://snipurl.com/krfl
http://snipurl.com/krfg

If you'd like to hear a bit from FIREFLY's creators, they've been very
accessible with interviews and the like. You may read some of their best
comments here:
http://snipurl.com/kyjy
http://snipurl.com/k884
http://snipurl.com/jtgx

Finally, these are fabulous fake nudes of the prominent women of FIREFLY.
No hardcore, but a lot of splendid nudity, none which is real. Don't click
the link if such stuff offends you in any way, and no disrespect is meant to
the actresses, who are beloved by fans on and off the screen.
http://snipurl.com/nayn

In short, FIREFLY is meant to inspire you and bring joy. Just ignore the
various haters, trolls, twits, and miserables. Or enjoy them as you might a
circus sideshow. But keep your eye on the magnificance that is FIREFLY.

Want to know about me? That's here. http://snipurl.com/kuu4 Best wishes
and keep flying. And there's far more about everything above, except the
nudes, in the FAQ. Once agin, that's here:
http://snipurl.com/k8ui
