This week’s podcast is super-sized, clocking in at over an hour and a half, but it’s because we’ve got so much to talk about! Paula Dean and her tendency to ride everything, inter-car conversations between vehicles in motion, and words that sound dirty but aren’t. Romney’s apparent crusade against PBS, a rant about how the people in power want you to be dumb and lazy, and Kyo’s convention report…and that’s just a small sampling! We even discuss the recent earthquake in the D/FW metroplex! (What, you hadn’t heard of that? Don’t feel bad, neither had we.)
Of course, after that it’s time to hit the e-mails, and we’ve got another full set of eight this week! We discuss our growing proximity to successful nuclear fusion, Halfwit’s fursona (fursonas?), the petting of zoo animals, and Animals Talking In All Caps…and that’s before our music break! Once we get back, there’s discussion of why you should write in to the show, mention of a successful way to lose weight, a Sclariqrevk e-mail and the new accent in which it’s read (barely comprehensible, like the mail itself!), the need to be in a relationship, a story of how to fall too deeply into furry, and we end with a rage-inducing e-mail so rife with entitlement that Istanbul literally can’t finish reading it. PROTIP: When writing in to a podcast run entirely by people who work in customer service, trashing people who work in customer service won’t win you any friends!
Next week’s topic is all about perseverance. How to hang in there when the going gets rough, what keeps you on your feet and moving, and the ability to stick to a task until it’s done. What propels you through your life? What motivates you to slog on when others would falter? Write in, we’re eager to hear from you!
SPECIAL NOTE: Next week, we’ll be posting the mass-podcast that Kyo did while at Rainfurrest. There won’t be a recording of Fuzzy Logic that week, but we still want you to write in; we’ll be taking your e-mails with us to our live show at Oklacon, so keep those words coming!

Point Park Students To Produce Documentary On Furries
http://steelcinema.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/fursuit_parade_anthrocon.jpg?w=830
For the last six years, Pittsburgh has welcomed Anthrocon, the world’s largest convention devoted to anthropomorphic enthusiasts. The community consists of artists, animators, writers, puppeteers, and fans of cartoon animals, but the most widely recognized members are furries, individuals who don elaborate costumes known as fursuits, which are designed to express the wearer’s “true” personality.
Now a group of Point Park University students will devote their senior thesis film to exploring fursuits and the furry lifestyle. Directed by Dominic Rodriguez, the documentary will focus on the unusual hobby by following a diverse group of several fursuiters in the U.S. The students hope to honestly examine this colorful sub-culture by taking a humanistic approach and getting to know the people inside the costumes.
In order to achieve their vision, the crew needs money for transportation, as the project will take them to different areas of the country and to several conventions throughout the year. Those interested can make a contribution on the Untitled Fursuiters Documentary page found on IndieGoGo.
