Strange Thoughts that Occur When Talking Fandom with Mom

Mom and I were driving to pick up a prescription for me when we started in on the topic of Quentin Tarantino and why his films are just so darn clever. Both of us really like listening to the patter of Pulp Fiction's dialouge. Mom's opposed to the violence, but I pointed out that it's supposed to make you a little uneasy. In any case, we eventually came around to the character of Jules. Mom forgot exactly what happened with him, so I explained: he became a shepherd and walked the Earth.

And then the Fandom Thought struck me. What if Jules from Pulp Fiction was the inspiration for Book on "Firefly"?
