Author: AshMCairo
“Forget in-air proposals and Kanye rapping, this might be the best in-air stunt ever.
On a Southwest flight from San Francisco to San Diego on March 12th, a group from SeaWorld was transporting penguins to a convention in the southern California city and decided to let them have a little free time while mid-air.
An in-air tutorial on the adorable species continued over the plane’s loud speaker as the penguins took over the flight.”

Prosecutor Seeking First Degree Murder in Dargis Case
The following story stems from the sexual assault of an unidentified 19 year old woman in the Zeeland township in Michigan. She is identified in the article as a furry and as going by the name “Night Horse”. Her former boyfriend, Joshua Michael Hambley was arrested for the murder on February 25th. Her involvement with the furry fandom was brought up while she was being questioned about text messages sent to Dargis after the assault.
Joshua Hambley
The Holland Sentinel reports:
Even though she accused him of sexual assault, text messages a woman exchanged with Jonathan Dargis days before he was killed suggested the woman was open to meeting him again.
Defense attorney Thomas Smith read excerpts from the messages while cross-examining the 19-year-old woman during the conclusion of a preliminary exam for Joshua Hambley on Tuesday. After testimony was complete, the judge determined there was enough evidence to send the case to trial in circuit court.
Hambley, 18, is charged with open murder in the death of Dargis, 18, whose body was found buried in the woods behind Hambley’s mother’s residence in Zeeland Township on Feb. 25.
“Smith also questioned the woman about her identity as a “furry.” “Furries” are part of a subculture who believe they possess both human and animal characteristics.
The woman believes she is part horse and has adopted the “furry” name “Night Horse,” she said.”

Seminole Area Furry Arrested for Plotting Columbine Style Massacre
Nathaniel Zeno, a 16 year old attending Seminole High School in Florida, has been arrested and charged with plotting a massacre at his school.
Pinellas deputies had Zeno committed to a mental hospital on March 4th. Florida’s Baker act allows for an individual to be involuntarily hospitalized if it is deemed they are a threat to themselves or to others. This occoured a few weeks after Zeno had taken out a book on the Columbine massacre from his school library, and had later been seen wandering the school with a map, making notes and marking locations.
He was released Wednesday, March 9th, and was arrested and charged with solicitation to commit murder, He is currently being held at the Pinellas Juvenile Assesment Center.
Family and friends had no idea he was in trouble until his arrest when his mother, Amber Zeno, called them to tell them. His family indicated he had emotional problems starting at a young age.
Zeno had been public about being a furry. He was also open about his views on animal rights. Detectives say the teen suspect was studying the book on the Columbine massacre and was in the process of obtaining a list of preferred firearms, and he told the student he was trying to get help from that he was targeting people that had a history of being cruel to animals.
His mother enrolled him at Seminole, but acceptance came hard. And Zeno, a loner, was hard to get to know. He would wear all-black clothing and had a problem with personal hygiene. As for being a furry, he was especially interested in cats and had a fox costume he wore to the Renaissance Festival. His mother noted he had a rich fantasy life.
“I think he felt very rejected and isolated (at Seminole),” his grandmother, Claudia McGrath said. “He wasn’t into drugs. He wasn’t violent. … He was messy. He was on the gloomy side.”
His entries on the deviantart.com website show Zeno’s level of distress over the past months: He uploaded two pictures of himself. Under one, he wrote, “I know I’m ugly.” Under the other, “I’m hideous.” He listed his personal quote in German, which translated to, “Would die in order to be a real furry.” His tagline on messages: “I’d rather die on paws than live on feet … FFL — Furry for Life (Keepin’ it furry since 1998).”
On March 4th, he wrote:
To anyone who cares or anyone who is reading this, but especially my friends; I might be going to jail.
I planned to shoot up my school and was caught while marking a map. I might be going to jail and I’m terrified. This isn’t a joke.
If I don’t send another journal within a week, I’m in jail.
Goodbye and good luck, especially you, Smookie, Brighty, and Silvermist.
