A nice news article on a furry.

This may have been posted before. But it is a fairly nice writeup about
a furry artist/fursuiter trying to improve the furry image.

I like what he's doing there. Art, in all its forms, is forever the voice of the people.
Hey, you! Yes, you, especially you, Stephen, listen here. We need test subjects for a Portal 2 map pack coming soon, so check out http://competitivetesting.tumblr.com/ right now, see if you have what it takes to join the Competitive Testing Initiative map pack! Don't just outshine your coop partner, destroy them!

It's nice to see people in the community giving furries recognition for the good things.

It's nice to see more and more articles on how furries are just people with an odd hobby, not unlike Trekkies or Star Wars junkies, we are absolutely the same.

Personally I have always maintained the opinion that respectable news organizations such as NPR and the BBC should be invited to a furcon to give brutally honest reporting of just how normal we are.
Spit and bailing wire hold my mind together.
