I work at a Hess station in Port Charlotte, FL. Just missed that a beautiful woman that came in my store briefly was wearing a tail because I was busy with other customers. Didn't even notice the tail until the guy at the counter pointed it out as she was walking to her car. My first time to really meet another furry face-to-face out in the wild and I missed it. FML. Anyone else have any close encounters as well?

Hi thar. Myself (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/inukaza/) and Kemushi (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/kemushi./) are heading a meet to Universal Studios next Sunday. Come and join us.

We will be meeting there at 9:00AM on Sunday at the Universal Parking Hub. (This is where the food stand is, where the parking garages meet.) We will decide as a group which park we will go to first. If you decide to only buy a 1 park pass, we will go to that park first, and we'll split afterwards.

TIPS/INFO Parking is 15$. Florida Resident 1 park ticket: $88.00 + Tax Florida Resident 2 park ticket: $123.00 + Tax Bring money for food, I'd say around $25 Min, Theme park food is expensive. Bring a change of clothes for water rides.

I MAY be able to give a 30% discount on admission tickets to a few individuals. I am a universal employee, and I am the one directing this meet. Send me a PM if you're interested in a discount for admission. You will need to bring the full ticket amount, just in case.

Universal does NOT allow suiting in their parks. We will play this by ear, but there is a possbility of a suiting event at a area around universal. This will be talked about and more info will be posted.

Please message me, for any other information. Or add me on Skype: Inukaza.

I learned that one of Reddit's co-founders committed suicide Friday. I feel we should do something for him.

We’ve been following this one since we first caught wind of it in Animation magazine, and somehow it snuck by us… and right onto DVD at your local WalMart, no less. Cinderella: Once Upon A Time In The West (known as Cinderella 3D in Europe) is a new CGI feature from France, directed by Pascal Herold. The story is much as you’ve ever heard it before: Cinderella (a pretty pronghorn who can handle her own in a fight) lives with her cruel stepmother and ugly stepsisters (all of them big old hounds)… this time, in a town in the Old West. A handsome prince (also a canine, but much more… handsome) comes into town and… well you know the rest. Or do you?  Did we mention the sand pirate monkeys who fly on vultures? Yes, it’s that kind of film! It’s produced by Delacave Studio, and you can check it out at their web site. Oh, the DVD is in English, by the way.

INTRODUCTION TO THE FURRYNET (fur.*) NEWSGROUPS

This is a periodic posting with the details on "Furrynet", a net-news
hierarchy of specific interest to Furry Fandom. For an

Hey Papa Bear,

I been have something on my mind recently and just not really sure how to come out to say it, but here it is. One topic that came up recently by a friends and it’s about it being popular. I know it’s very shallow sounding, but honestly, when they brought it up, we talked, and I came to the realization that I want to become popular within the Fandom or be in the spotlight per se. But is it wrong of me to have that type of mentality? Or say I let it get to me and it agitates me? How do I go about it?

And one thing, thanks for all your help previously, Papabear. You’re awesome and appreciate that you do this for me and everyone else. Thanks.

Anthony Snow

Hi, Anthony,

Thanks for your kind words. I appreciate them :-3

Let me begin my reply by telling you a story. When Papabear was a cub, he always looked forward to going to bed because that time before I drifted off to sleep would be my time of fantasy. I would imagine myself to be a mighty dragon, or sometimes a wolf, or a bear, or a flying magical buck. In one of these forms, I would interact with characters from my favorite books and movies, such as The Hobbit, The Jungle Book, The Chronicles of Narnia, Bambi, or Mary Poppins(my favorite scene is still when they are in the cartoon world created by Bert with his chalk drawings). In all of them, I was the center of attention in some way—admired by the other characters for my strength or beauty or kindness. I loved these worlds so much that I came to really dislike reality and withdrew into myself more and more. I became so fearful of the world that it led to a very bad period of my life that I didn’t crawl out of until my twenties. Kind of like an addiction, really, that craving for a fantasy world where I am more than I am. It reminds me of a little riddle: Where are all men great? Answer: in their own minds.

It isn’t wrong to want to be wanted, to be admired, to be cherished and loved. It is a very natural impulse we have from childhood. But to want to be famous and popular for the sake of fame and popularity is unhealthy and, as you yourself say, shallow. Here’s a fun video about that:
That is, really, the definition of the popufur, isn’t it? Someone who preens and struts and shows off for the sake of being admired.

American culture is rife with this mental illness, this desire for fame, especially when it comes to things like being on television. “Look at me! Look at me! I’m on TV! Validate me! I’m somebody!” So a camera got stuck up your muzzle, big whoop. Yet Americans ogle and fawn over television personalities as if they were gods and goddesses while people of true substance and accomplishment are too often ignored. The result is things like reality TV shows and Honey Boo Boo, things with absolutely no redeeming qualities whatsoever. Indeed, American society has become very shallow, especially over the last couple of decades, but you might chalk that opinion up to the words of a bear who is a bit of a curmudgeon at times.

The problem is you’re putting the cart before the horse. What you are desiring are the things that result from true accomplishment, not the accomplishments themselves. What you should be trying to do with your life is something useful and productive, something that benefits your family, friends, society and the planet in some way. You should do this unselfishly, not for the craving to be admired and respected. And, as this little video shows, giving can feel great!
Personal satisfaction in life comes from accomplishing things for the greater good, not in receiving undeserved attention. A little example is this letter right here. I tried to do something good for furries, and you responded with a very nice compliment. Thank you. It feels especially good because the compliment came because I did something for somebody else, not for myself.

Feel great about yourself by what you do for others and for the world, then you won’t worry about being popular at all because you’ll have something much better: the satisfaction of being a good person.

Hugs,

Papabear
