Anyone have any good leads or resources for pricing "vintage" furry smut? Grimm and I have been going thru some old boxes and cleaning out the house, and came across a bunch of old furry comics. Looking to sell them to raise some funds for the cat rescue. Just not sure where to look.

Our big fluffy goofball Spaceghost had to go back in for more surgery and illness recently, saddling  grimmorph with another $2500 vet bill. She's selling 80's MLP, Monster High Dolls and other stuff, and I have 2 sets of never used 24x count Prismacolor markers for sale on ebay.

Posting here in case anyone is interested / can spread the word. Just trying to make a little to help cover this unplanned bill.

Sure. Why not. Because I rarely post here. Go for it. Ask anything you want and I'll answer, heh.

That... is crazy; but the first time somebody told me that...I dunno, I thought they were bullshitting me, so boom — I shot him. The thing is, okay... He was right. And then I started seeing: everywhere I looked, everywhere I looked, all these fucking pricks, everywhere I looked, doing the exact same fucking thing... over and over and over and over again thinking: "This time, it's gonna be different; no, no, no, no, no, please... This time it's gonna be different." ...I am sorry, I don't like the way you are looking at me... Okay, do you have a fucking problem in your head? Do you think I am bullshitting you? Do you think I am lying? Fuck you! Okay? FUCK YOU! It's okay, man. I'm gonna chill, hermano. I'm gonna chill... The thing is... alright, the thing is: I killed you once already... and it's not like I am fucking crazy. It's okay... It's like water under the bridge.
Did I ever tell you the definition... of insanity?"
— Vaas

So, its been like a month and a half already. The LA area is interesting.... Work is freakin amazing. Its so cool building stuff thats GOING TO GO INTO SPACE.


And Im starting to become social and make friends! Huzzah! Theres actually some pretty cool people out here.

So, im sitting in a hotel room in Meridian, Mississippi. 670 miles out from South Carolina. Working my way across the country to Hawthorne, CA this Friday. Starting a new job in SoCal on Monday. Big changes in life, and its both good and bad. Saying goodbye to friends, "Family" and  Freezinghot was really really hard :(

So. just trying to put some data together on things related to what it costs to live in the SoCal area. anyone on here i watch live out that way that I can talk to?

Not much to say. Working, racing, getting ready for DragonCon.

Anyone else I know going?

Getting ready to move in a few months and going thru all my (allbeit a little old) electronics. But I figure that maybe someone on here could use some of this.

I figure most of this will be $5-10 to ship (USPS flat rate) So just make an offer.

Antec P160 PC Fullsize Tower (higher shipping)

Motorola KRZR ATT cellphone. light wear, still works.

Wacom Graphire 4 (4x5 tablet) drawing tablet+pen+mouse Pretty much new in box, I used this like 4 times.

NextTech Aluminum 3.5" IDE Hard drive enclosure

MadDog 3.5" IDE hard drive enclosure, w/ 80gig Barracuda Hard Drive

Stanton M202 Mixer (Higher Shipping)

Im picking up the pieces, putting myself back together, and moving forward again in life. I like this, and it is good.

I'm not okay. And Im not sure when I am going to be again. Im growing tired of always running.

DragonCon was awesome. May post pics. Dunno.

Headed to Dallas again for work for a week.

Working on bettering myself to get back some of the things lately I have lost.

Turned 25 today. Spent it last night with good friends from work. I get a feeling this is gonna be a good year. Changing my outlook on some stuff for the better...

And because I havent changed this in months. And I am really that bored.
