'taurs
On this page you will find everything, that is related to
centaurs. The mystic blend of animal and human body, gaining the best
of both worlds, fascinates myself as long as I know. Going back to my
childhood days, an old tome from my great-grandmother (maybe 100 years
old [the tome, silly]) of fairytales of Hans Christian Anderson (in
old-german letters) was the first contact to this mythic world.
After that, centaurs were occuring only rarely (and I certainly cannot
draw), until in 1991 I discovered first the internet and finally in
1994 the WWW. Now, in days of internet a centaur is much more common
thing, furrydom may be soon considered even a acknowledged church ;-)
(as our firewall denies access to werwolf sites: "Alternate religions
is not allowed")
Being fascinated by centaurs and completely unable to draw them, even
if I have the clear image in mind, I wrote stories about them. In
german of course, since the ability to express is important to a
good story. And only a very few can even claim to be good even in
two languages. (The only example I know is Stanilaw Lem.)
So, what is here on this site? First a video and then my stories,
as long as they contain centaurs/taurs.

Yes, there are japanese centaurs. Watch the video (Divx 4.12-format)! Unfourtunately the first
five seconds are missing, and I never saw this adverticement again.
What a pity!
(The certainly not price winning text and naration is saying (as you
can nearly guess by yourself if you know, that "umai" means delicious):
"This yakisoba (grilled noodles) is delicious"
"UFO-sauce is delicious"
"Tasty yakisoba - UFO" (any combination missing?)
The last shot, she probably advertices for a telefon- or fan-card.
(Hirosue is a name, probably of the actor. Text says with this
picture-smell-card, you can win(?) 2000 yen present. The Kanji
combination for the cards name does not make sence, according to
my dictionaries ... )

UFO-Yakisoba -- take 2 3.12 MB

The quest of the japanese centaurs for hot water continues. No new narration,
but this time at least a complete storyline. (And the finishing image now
advertises for the new small size product, as you would have guessed.)

As said before, this is in german language - sorry.
