Ok for everyone who will be in the path of the upcoming hurricane please remember if you have a charcoal grill or generator to keep them outside! I see too many people die every year of carbon monoxide poisoning every year because of this and I don't want to see you or anyone I know to be hurt. So be aware and tell your friends! You could help save a friend of furs life by following this simple piece of advice!

Weather the storm well brothers and sisters, I wish you all good luck! Peace!

Ok so for those of you who know me well enough I'm basically gay. Now what happened today was beyond funny and totally unexpected and just made me giggle to no end. So I was at work today putting all the shit out for Windows 8 and busting my balls. All of a sudden this guy comes up to me and he is there to get his machine. But while I was standing there he handed me a piece of paper and said it was from a girl on the other side of the building who wanted me to have that. I opened it and saw a names and phone number. Aly.... That was the name. At first I scratched my head wondering who it was, then I realized it was my friend Aly who came in the day before. I hadn't seen her in a long while and she was a good friend of mine and great artist. She had told me the day before that she was going to be having a concert rather soon for her music she just made and being out of touch for so long I was missing her phone number. So I instantly thought that it was her number..... I was wrong.

So i just texted the phone number expecting a response from my old friend, I instead have someone who wants to have sex with me.

So yeah, how do you guys think i should break it to her? Because it makes me giggle to no end knowing that in the end she is getting wet over a gay guy. XD

Welp, I have applied for UAT in Arizona! This is a big day for me and I feel a great weight lifted off my shoulders, for the first time in 3 years I am going preparing to go back to college and get my tech certificates! I am really excited about this, I have been waiting for years for this day and since I have built up so much confidence from a combination of good co workers, great friends, improvements in both physical health and appearance, a partner who cares about me, and also you! Yes you! Believe it or not the furry community is part of my family and although we are a weird bunch who like weird things at times we are all still loveable friends who work together and all share the same common beliefs of tolerance and acceptance of others. I truly can say that you are all wonderful people who work as a family. So thank you everyone, that you for your support and care and for watching me being able to take this next big step in my life. Before long I will have a real tech job of my own and a place that I can truly call my home.

Ok I am working on some machines at my work and I need a "PINTLGB.IMD" file. They are only found in ASUS laptops running windows 7. If you an ASUS please extract this file so i can use it as a surrogate to fix a machine at work! You would be helping me quite a bit by doing this. The file can be found in C:\Windows\IME\IMESC5\DICTS\PINTLGB.IMD

Alert me and send the file ASAP so i can fix this elderly couples machine, thank you so much.

Good morning everyone! Or good evening to those who are are getting ready for their evening. Just happy to say that I am about to his my 100th watcher very soon. It's funny that i have owned this account since 2010 but it's only been the past year that I have actually started to use it. At first when i started to come here I was worried i wouldn't fit in, but instead I find myself surrounded by good friends and acquaintances. Some of you I know more than others, but I am willing to learn more about you! Just get your face out there and start a conversation, I don't bite.... hard. :p

But other then that i am proud to have my full Ref sheet done, it is up for viewing on  rhyu page and will soon be on my own soon but I like to give it time for everyone to admire the work she did first.

Other than that I found something rather bizarre today. As I passed by my mother's dresser in her bedroom i happened to glance at a small box sitting in a drawer and was curious to find what was inside. Once I opened the box I had to sit down and laugh for a good minute. There in the box was a giant bag of weed, my mother is a an incredibly reserved and uptight woman who is the very definition of "No fun allowed", so the simple fact that she does this in her spare time is hillarious. Oh well I can respect her choices in life even if she doesn't respect my own, besides it's not like she goes pointing out to me of the "things" i keep in my drawer. :p

Anywho that's all from me, gotta go back to work and plow through a bunch of computers that nobody can seem to fix. Chow!

Ok so now that I have become used to being back home I have got myself ready for the next step. I need to go back to college and transfer my credits to IT school, but I need to find one that is credited towards my school LFCC. They want me to stay at the community college but they're forcing me to take Algebra which is my bane, no one seems to understand i have 100% inability to learn it. I took the same class 6 times and I still could never complete it or understand it. Bah! I just need to get to a tech school and cut out the horse shit. Any advice?

On a side note I am planning on making a suit, yup I am joining the ranks of the other suiters. What started out as a curiosity has developed into a full desire and I am eagerly planning out the detail as such!

And last but not least I bring great news, my health has improved over the past few months and my diet changes have caused wonderful results! I was at a peak weight of 197 lbs and have now dropped to 173 lbs! My better eating habits plus a simple workout routine has made it so my old pants no longer fit me and I am now wearing jeans from when I was in high school from 8 years ago. All this is giving me a very nice flat stomach, and i want to keep it up so that it improves even further. I don't want a six pack, but I do want that V... You know what I am talking about. <3

And last but not least my good friend and coworker Joe is now a proud father to a 9lb 4oz baby girl! I'm proud to see him as a father since the doctors said he would never have children after the chemotherapy. And that's about it in my life right now, hope you are all doing well. Kick ass and have an awesome day! ^.=.^

Well the life of the skink has brought me back to my home town once more. Things didn't exactly turn out too well in Michigan and I find myself back home. Either way I'm ok with since this has inspired me to go back to college and get my degree in Networking. Other then that I am happy to announce that I was made the senior technician at my work. So essentially that means I run the repair center for the computers and i pretty much take charge of all the other techs and guide them as to what they need to do. So woot to having a better title and being back with all my coworkers!

But other then that I am also happy because i can finally start viewing all of your artwork and talking to you all once more. I am truly sorry my absence as of the past few months yet I am happy to return.

Also I am looking for an artist in the skill range of:  slyus and  Tokifuji

Ofc they need to have open commishes to count so if you all have any suggestions please let them be known, I have some artwork I need done for a couple special persons in my life.

Come check out and watch this awesome lizard, this is certainly going to be an awesome event ^^

Well today  rhyu will be having the back half of my ref done. Come swing by during the afternoon and you will get to see her in action. ^^

I'm sorry everyone, life has had me so busy ever since I moved up here. I never have time to say hi to anyone or talk to people and I feel bad because I feel like I am neglecting my watchers, artists, and friends. Please forgive me, life is so hectic and I would really love to talk and spend time with you all, but I am just so busy. My Skype is on my page if you want to converse with me.

Hello, I am sorry i have been so busy as of late. I know i have not been leaving a lot of comments or viewing your work lately and i highly apologize for that. Since I have been preparing to move this week i have been so wrapped up in my work that i haven't' had much time to do the things I enjoy. With that said, I hope that by next week i am back in action and commenting once again on all your lovely pieces.

Now that i have spoken my bit on that, I am looking to see if some of you would be interested in a furbowl up in Michigan within the next few months. I probably will need to organize a special event for this and send out some form of an invite so everyone can know. But in the end I think it would be fun and would be great seeing a bunch of suiters running around having a good time. So leave a comment or an opinion on all this. Let's see how many people actually read this. :p

Well I went and saw Prometheus the other night. Mind you I a big fan of the original Alien movie by Ridley Scott, and I have been looking forward to this movie for about 7 months now. To put it simply the movie was meh, it wasn't' really good but at the same time is wasn't really bad either. The movie had wonderful visuals. the cgi was very well done which helped give it a feeling of depth which it really needed. The characters were rather bland and nothing really went into their development as the plot progressed. The story was slow and didn't' successfully hold most peoples attention. The worst part of all was the plot holes, for those of you who have seen the first movie and understand a little about the Alien biology then you will be most confused and leave the theater scratching your head and feeling a bit annoyed by some of the holes that you'll notice. However the movie does have very good visuals and still gives another view into the universe that Ridley first created, it is vague but still answers at least some questions that you may have had before. Still I recommend watching this movie, despite it's flaws I still enjoyed the ending.

5/10 is my score.

Welp, bills caught up with me and it seems i will miss out on my virgin trip to AC. Le sigh, I suppose it could be worse and I could have a disaster in my life. At least there are still other cons to attend too. Oh well, but hey I'll get to see you all eventually! Just look for the guy with the short hair and glasses at your nearest northern con! :D

Alas I have ended my project on the fursuit cooling system. While the idea and functionality all worked on paper it was missing one vital piece which cannot be obtained in this time period, and that is a power source that is small enough. Thank you all for watching though, it was a good attempt and hopefully one day they will make a power supply small enough to make this feasable.

I have been sparked with a new project idea to keep the wheels in my head turning. At my first time to the FCN in Michigan I saw just how hot fursuits really were, and although I know everyone is having fun with them on I see room for improvement to make them more comfortable. So I began to design a cooling system in my mind, so far it seems feasible and I am currently working out the energy ratios and battery configuration. But I would also like some input. If any of you use a fursuit, please let me know how many hours would you like such a device to run? Be aware that batteries can be replaced to recharge for a while, and I personally think 3 hours is good enough. But yes, please give me some input. I will begin experimenting once I get the resources needed to build this. After that I will need test subjects to help me analyze the results and give me feedback on the units performance.
