PS4
Posted 10 years agoHey Furres!
I just broke down and bought myself a Ps4! My username is CanadianCole and I'm looking for some friends to game/chat with!
If you have a PS4 also, or you just think my character is hot, go ahead and toss me a friend invite!

Bi-Annual Update! Woohoo
Posted 13 years agoHey Furres!
Well things have gotten a little nicer in my lonely cold corner of Canada lol. I got second place in a local singing competition and won $750 dollars! A very special furre moved to town and I have been spending some time with him <3 I have kept my current job for over a year and things are finally settling down enough to look at getting some more artwork done.
I am still looking at selling my house sometime this year, just because I want to be free of the mortgage and constant source of stressful responsibility. I am too young to be tied down to a house in the middle of nowhere Alberta Canada, when I should be out there meeting people and seeing the world.
Still addicted to Anime/Manga/Yaoi and video games, and recently started playing Dungeons and Dragons 4.0 with a few friends! [I am DMing] I have also been playing a special format of Magic cards called "EDH" or Commander.
Considered startinga new account on here and abandoning this one, because of the rampant inactivity you guys may have noticed...but I am expecting to post some art soon from Shiuk, Grisser, and Markwulfgar.
Hope you are all having a great 2012 so far, and if you want to get in touch feel free to drop me a message! I will do my best to reply to each one!

To all the creative furres behind the 15,595 submissions
Posted 15 years agoThank you "*Insert your name here*"
Your dedication to creativity and expressing yourself in such exciting and enjoyable ways is a real treat. I've noted an improvement in your skill over the years you have been posting your art/stories/poems/music on FA. I genuinely feel that your gift is best shared with others, and you should continue to work on and post new media.
Thank you for the time I was able to spend masturbating/kinda rubbing myself through my boxerbriefs/quietly contemplating/singing along/crying/smiling/and sharing your hard work with other friends.
Always and forever your devoted crush/friend/acquaintance/lover/wannabe lover/and person that doesn't know you but has you watched on FA anyway.

Are you a Gleek Like me? / My Penis got LARGER / NEW COMIC!
Posted 15 years agoSo; I'm a gleek.
I love Fox's tv show Glee, and I'm not ashamed to sing along at the top of my lungs in my boxerbreifs on a tuesday morning at 3am.
That is all.
In Further news! I've been losing weight recently, because I was/still am a Chubster [I know...gross right?] And guess what! MY penis is bigger now as a result o.o I guess when you have a little extra weight it stores fat in your pelvis region too, so when you start to slim down, you actually have a bigger penis than you've been working with.
SO: All you cute ass fatty furres out there who think your dick is too small...get on a treadmill and let the size queens stare *chuckles*
Actually treadmills are high impact..[my personal trainer says so] and should be avoided until you have reached a general average fitness level. Stick to elypticals and Bikes for your cardio purposes!
In Conclusion:
I am in the process of writing a series of short stories in the interest of making a serialized episodic comic. I will be looking for a co-author to do the artwork, and hopefully looking into getting it published somewhere down the road.
The main characters and plotline are in development now, with concept art done by the ever talented Maneater [Haku]
-Later Days!

There is also a Mystery Doberman in my life! I am quite taken with him and he doesn't live halfway across the globe! He will probably be appearing more as well!
-everyone play safe ! ^.^

Adieu
Posted 16 years agoHey everyone who reads my few and far between journals.
-I've been told that I spend too much time on sites like this one and Yiffchat and so on and so forth, living out my life talking to people that I will likely not have a chance with romantically.
That may or may not be true, but I do agree that my online time has been vast as of late. As a result I "hired" a friend to act as a "life coach" who intends to help me re-organize my life to ensure physical fitness, and a healthy lifestyle.
I've been advised by my new coach to spend less time here and at other websites, and has suggested I limit my time online to MSN use only.
Ask for my email if you'd like to add.
Also, as far as romance, I'm refocusing on finding someone local, or close to local...so as much as I enjoyed flirting with the exotic few of you who live in places a Canadian like me only dreams of vacationing, I have to say goodbye for now :)
I will continue to update this site with art now and then, as I have continued to commission talent.
Thanks for the Watches, Faves, and Comments ^.^
-Cole

Under my bedsheets
Posted 16 years agoSo my room is always a fucking mess.
I can't clean it to save my life. Manga here, Anime there, DVD's and computer games haphazardly stacked higher than my headboard. Blankets, Pillows, Clothes both clean piles and dirty piles.
My room has always been and will forever by a sty, until I get a man who forces me to keep it clean :P The rest of my house however is SPOTLESS. You wouldn't believe someone who keeps their kitchen/diningroom and living room as spotless as mine are would live in a bedroom you can barely see the floor of.
The odd thing is...I always buy expensive bedding, comforters and Pillow cases that match the drapes, and I make an effort to always have my bed pretty and made with decorative pillows, like you are looking a t a bed in a Sears Catalogue.
Weird eh?

If no one wants to be in my Christmas Commission then it won't get all that high...which is alright too. <3
Merry Christmas Everyone.

Import a boy...story?
Posted 17 years agoDue too an overwhelming push from a few key friends, and suggestions from the public, I will begin writing a story with the "import a boy" feel.
If its good enough it might sell as a comic serialization with Rabbit Valley.

Import a Boy
Posted 17 years agoLast night I had a dream...a beautiful dream.
it was called "Import a Boy"
And it was exactly what it seems.
A buisness that let you import guys..lol....It was a nice dream.

Money.
Posted 17 years agoSome of you might know me; others reading this journal might just have watched my FA page because I have sexy artwork by many of the leading and popular artists in today’s furry community. Most of my friends probably won’t even open this journal, because mine aren’t often funny.
This journal is about money, and how its affected my life. I won’t ask for your opinions…because frankly I don’t care much how you guys feel about money, or if any of you think I’m a monster after reading this journal.
I just wanted people to know more about me.
I was born into an average family in 1987. We weren’t rich, and we weren’t poor…but we did ok. The city I live in is called Fort McMurray Alberta Canada, and Its famously known as being right on top of the second largest oil deposit on the planet. As such, the economy and rush of companies to develop the area drove up wages and caused a high demand for work. Look up Fort McMurray, I’m not lying here.
As such, even though I am quite young I am fortunate enough to be making a pretty penny in wages, and I already own my own home. Many people have called me selfish and arrogant in the past, that I’m in love with money and that I will never be happy without it. I have been told “Money Can’t buy happiness” over and over by friends who live in less economically booming places.
But It sure as hell helps!
How many people out there reading this have wanted to go on vacation…or buy something nice for their lover? Maybe buy a fursuit…or art by Bradford. Maybe they wanted new clothes, to fix their cars or just pay rent! So they don’t have to live at home with their parents.
This is where I get a frustrated. There are a large portion of people out there stretched to their limit. They work two jobs, take commissions, sell their possessions and they genuinely try really hard to make it in this world. Their lives aren’t glamorous, and sometimes they struggle to eat…and I’ve had friends sleep in their cars before because they couldn’t find an apartment they could afford. I am sensitive to these problems, and I know people try as hard as they can.
I paid a friend a $500.00 no interest loan to pay his mortgage, and he was struggling to pay back, so after he paid back $250.00 I told him he didn’t need to bother paying back the rest.
I paid for a buddy’s hotel room for a night after he had been living in his car for 5 days so he could shower and feel well rested before a job interview.
I donate money to people who need help getting to conventions I myself am unable to attend because of my work schedule, and I give to worldly charities every year from my Christmas bonus.
That being said. I have no sympathy or respect for people who are too lazy and unmotivated to try. I have friends who don’t like to work, and won’t work or keep a job for more than a few months.
I can’t understand the type of people who are content to live off the generosity of their parents and friends, with no desire to become independent or self sufficient. Too many furries live this live, addicted to WoW or whatever that keeps them from living life and becoming responsible members of society.
At the end of the day, I do have more money than most, and for someone my age to own a home is hard to swallow…but being 100% honest…Im not exactly a happy person. I’ve never been in a relationship, I’d rather stay home with a group and play scrabble or trivial pursuit than go to a bar or club. I don’t do drugs or drink very often, and I’m somewhat of a hopeless romantic…who falls in love to easily…
I hate the internet because it allows me to find guys that I want to have in my life, but more often then not they live to far away to see those desires fulfilled. I would give anything…to have someone to share this life of mine. Someone as independent and responsible as I am to live with and work with would be ultimately satisfying. Two incomes in this city could see huge possibilities for investment, vacations, sponsoring cons and developing people we know and like.
There in lies the rub….because you can’t exactly buy a person like that…and if money is all I have, then maybe that’s why Im alone.
This journal is about money, and how its affected my life. I won’t ask for your opinions…because frankly I don’t care much how you guys feel about money, or if any of you think I’m a monster after reading this journal.

I am sensitive to these problems, and I know people try as hard as they can.
I paid a friend a $500.00 no interest loan to pay his mortgage, and he was struggling to pay back, so after he paid back $250.00 I told him he didn’t need to bother paying back the rest.
I paid for a buddy’s hotel room for a night after he had been living in his car for 5 days so he could shower and feel well rested before a job interview.
I donate money to people who need help getting to conventions I myself am unable to attend because of my work schedule, and I give to worldly charities every year from my Christmas bonus.
That being said. I have no sympathy or respect for people who are too lazy and unmotivated to try. I have friends who don’t like to work, and won’t work or keep a job for more than a few months.
I can’t understand the type of people who are content to live off the generosity of their parents and friends, with no desire to become independent or self sufficient. Too many furries live this live, addicted to WoW or whatever that keeps them from living life and becoming responsible members of society.
At the end of the day, I do have more money than most, and for someone my age to own a home is hard to swallow…but being 100% honest…Im not exactly a happy person. I’ve never been in a relationship, I’d rather stay home with a group and play scrabble or trivial pursuit than go to a bar or club. I don’t do drugs or drink very often, and I’m somewhat of a hopeless romantic…who falls in love to easily…
I hate the internet because it allows me to find guys that I want to have in my life, but more often then not they live to far away to see those desires fulfilled. I would give anything…to have someone to share this life of mine. Someone as independent and responsible as I am to live with and work with would be ultimately satisfying. Two incomes in this city could see huge possibilities for investment, vacations, sponsoring cons and developing people we know and like.
There in lies the rub….because you can’t exactly buy a person like that…and if money is all I have, then maybe that’s why Im alone.

And marvel at the replies.

Need a Digital Music Crafter!!!!BADLY
Posted 17 years agoWow Guys, this is happening really fast and Im so excited! However, I need HELP!
I entered in a contest because I love to sing. It was a local contest and there were lots of local talented people trying out. I made it to the last round and I was one of the winners. However, I sang accapella and that hurt my scores. The Record Producer who was one of the judges said I needed at LEAST a pianist, if not a full band to support me and bring the music back to the singing.
SO I searched my hometown and put adds in the papers and in Craigslist for musicians who wanted a great opprotunity with a GARUNTEED performance in a 300 seat theatre where we are the headliners. However, my search has yeilded no good results.
I remembered that People who craft music with their computers would have no trouble creating backround tracks for my performance in the event I am unable to find a band. If you are or know of a talented Music Crafter who uses a digital program to mix their tracks PLEASE! Help me get in touch with them/get in touch with me!
Thanks guys!

Love....
Posted 17 years agoLove...is not a beautiful thing.
It scorns you..eludes you....teases you with it's presence, It flaunts itself in the lives of your friends and family. Love can be cold, and ugly, and messy...full of conflict and pain and anger.
Love can destroy, and it can be cruel, yet we chase it as if it were a flask of water in a desert. A nightlight in a billion empty rooms cast in darkness.
Why chase love? Why do we insist upon finding and claiming such a hurtful selfish thing....
Even when we do find and capture Love in our paws, it wriggles relentlessly, it claws and bites and hisses at us and ruffles its feathers and bares its teeth.
It always dangles on some thread waiting to break and flee from our grasp.
You can't tame love, nor can you count on it to stay by your side forever, and often we are left with nothing but memories to make the seperation more painful.
Yet...
Knowing all this.
The idea of love....real love...makes me happier than I've ever been...and I hope..I can find it soon.
And I hope you can as well....my friends.
