Open Post: Your Introduction to Furry
It’s been a long time since we’ve done any open posts here at [adjective][species]. A lot of this is due to the sheer amount of personal stuff that’s been going on, but also, it’s been hard to think up any good topics! It would be nice to try something new with this one. I’ve talked before about how I got into the fandom – finding yerf, getting out of hand with it in high school, then calming down later on. We’re interested in the variety of stories from other people, though! What got you into anthropomorphized animals? What got you into the furry subculture? Heck, how did you find this website? Tell us about all of your beginnings!
N.B. Rather than modifying the post with all the responses, since that would mean mostly copy/pasting what commentors provide, I’ll leave the comments mostly in place, unless I receive comments form Google+, Twitter, or FA!

Episode 170 - The Good Times
Best way to meet other furries?
I've been a furry for several years but never really part of the "fandom"--most furs I've met were through temporary RP communities (unrelated to furries) or now-defunct TinyChat rooms... what's the best way to meet and get to know some other furs online?

Apparently some furs talked to George Takei and asked him to say this... (Not my video, but others should see it. Sorry for the weird tilt)

Jencen from Funlaser makes these fanatastic LED-lit laser engraved badges and dog tags, and right now he's trying to raise money because he has had a ton of medical expenses lately! So each purchase of an LED badge/dog tag will come with an engraved aluminum tag, engravable on BOTH sides!
BUT THAT'S NOT ALL. To help my buddy out, I'm going to throw in FREE LINEART for use in engraving on the item you purchase! The full details can be found in this journal: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3318757/
Thank you, and lets help this fellow furry's business grow! If you wanna see some of his stuff in action, I've got a picture of me covered in swag here: http://i.imgur.com/H2tog.jpg

Am I overcharging for my commissions in relation to my skill?
I like to think I'm offering fair prices for the rare times I get commissions, but sometimes I think I might be charging too much for the end quality
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7691149/ My prices are on my page and this is an example of a top tier (read: full colour with background and multiple characters) commission I did:

Canada: Mentally-Defective Beaver or Bullying Bear?
The suggestion from a Canadian senator that Canada should replace its
national emblem has sparked a national debate about what it means to
be a Canadian in the 21st Century.
Beaver or polar bear? This is the stark choice Canadians face as they

Thirty eight episodes already? Sheesh, time sure does fly! We’ve got three e-mails this week, plus an original document written up that’s long enough to be an e-mail, so each cast member gets to read one item! Our discussion period includes topics like a live showing of Casablanca, how research can be manipulated to give false returns, how Rick Santorum is the new Newt Gingrich, how Trayvon got shot – and how irresponsibly it’s being handled on both sides of the equation – and more!
Once our e-mails get started, it’s a whole new ballgame! We’ve got a discussion on how to maintain eye contact to get a job without freaking out the interviewer, how to get out of a bad situation where someone is using a medical condition as an emotional wedge, how to best deal with having convention roommates that you don’t (or do!) know, and an update on how to handle an abusive living situation…along with our Sassy Kyo of the week, followed by the word(s) of the week, also from Sassy Kyo!
Also, we’ve got a brand new feature we’re hoping you’ll like! We’ve started including a music break in the middle of each episode, to help break things up a little bit and to give us an opportunity to go boom-boom in peace. Our first offering is “Battle for the Badge” by Fishy, from the Pokemon: The Missingno Tracks collection off of OCRemix. Imagine the gym leader theme music as done by a metal band, and you’ll get a pretty good idea of what to expect. It’s pretty sweet, we assure you!
Next week’s topic is Media You Like. What are some of your favorite things? TV shows, flash animations, games, movies, things of that nature? Help us to get to know you a little bit better, and offer up some suggestions to enrich the lives of the other listeners. We want this to be a positive topic…but we’re still here for you if you need help, so don’t be afraid to write in!

Marsupilami Maybe
Also over on Cartoon Brew is a link to the current trailer for the new Marsupilami movie coming out in April in France. Marsu-who, you ask? The marsupilami is a fantastic creature which came to us from the imagination of André Franquin, an influential Belgian comic book artist and creator, best known for his work in the magazine Spirou. The marsupilami is a mysterious jungle denizen known for its spotted fur, it’s exuberant cry of “Houba!”, it’s appetite for piranha fish, and it’s very VERY long tail… which usually went off the frame of whatever comic page it was drawn upon. Franquin used the character in the Spirou et Fantasio comics from 1952 to 1968, and the character has been revived several times since then — most notably in the Disney TV animation series Raw Toonage in the 1990′s. The estate of Franquin was not very thrilled with the interpretation of the character in that series — they went so far as to revoke Disney’s right to the marsupilami. Well now, the same French team that brought us the Asterix live-action movies have produced a live-action/CGI movie (HOUBA! On the Trail of the Marsupilami), directed by and starring Alain Chabat. Check out the trailer and see what you think. The marsupilami itself is seen very little here, but it gives you a feeling for what the movie is going to be like.
