I should just pack it in and move to Blogspot.  This LiveJournal just isn't very furry.  Who am I kidding?  I don’t wear a fursuit, I rarely write furry stories, and the only fursonal drawing I ever bought got ruined during the move to Canada.  There is no place in this Fandom for “an anthropomorphized Homo erectus pretending to be a ( Read more... )

Well, that meme-filling form seems quite popular-It's getting about 400 hits per hour right now.  So I'd better do an encore before the applause dies down.

Continuing with the theme of reusing stuff I had to develop for my guru.com job, I now present the Three-column Meme Generator.  It's just like the last one, only this one lets you type in your ( Read more... )

loganberrybunny discovered a bug in the LJ tagging system.  Usually, uppercase letters in tags are forced to lowercase, but not if your tag contains *any* non-ASCII characters.  Hmm... how can we subvert this bug into a feature so tags can be properly capitalized?  You can rename your existing tags at the tag-management page, which is not well-advertised.

I really, really don't want to move to Canada and *then* look for a ( Read more... )

Among other Hanukkah gifts, I received America: THE BOOK, by Jon Stewart et al.  It was written by the staff of The Daily Show and has the same tone as that TV program, except that it is markedly more profane.  The presence on page 99 of full frontal nudity (M/F) makes this book unsuitable for coffee-table use in a household with kids in a country ( Read more... )

Since it appears that I'll be writing an HTML renderer for my day job, you can expect to see even more CSS goodness in my journal posts.  The CSS standard specifies lots of ridiculous decorative touches that nobody ( Read more... )

Thread 1: Dave S. posts often to alt.lifestyle.furry and uses many names: "Dave the Dancing Hyena", "Dave the Rotating Hyena", "Dave the Emperor Palatine Hyena", etc. In this post (on 14-April-2004), I referred to him as "Dave the Hyena".

Thread 2: I was told that this topic is an example of how mean the EatAwlFurrees people are. But it didn't ( Read more... )
