Today is our kitten Mishka’s birthday! Today she turns one year old (which is 24 in human years… oddly enough that’s how old I am!) and Jess plans on giving her tuna and sweet stuff for her present. The cat loves sweet things, melon, strawberries, non-dairy frosting, etc… you have it, she wants it. You can tell me a hundred times that cats don’t taste sweet, but she lives with me, and she will always prove you wrong. Here’s an older picture of her… will update with a new one later:
Besides that, nothing too new. Jess quit her job and has a bunch of interviews, so I wish her well. Also, the fish tank had an issue and I spent part of saturday fighting with a lobster and digging through gravel to fix it. Ugh. Also, I gave myself a nasty little burn when accidentally touching the aquarium heater. Grrr.Also in the last week I finally fixed my computer! It seems that the rear 120mm case fan was causing all my issues. Every BSOD, all the heat issues, etc. The fan would spin, quite fast, but it seems it was actually generating heat, instead of removing it. When I touched it, it actually burnt my finger! Very odd. Well, $10.00 later I have a new fan, and a nice cool running system (it runs about 43 degrees now, instead of the 60+ it was running before). While we’re on the “PC talk”, I got Vista installed and running on my system. While I get plenty of BSODs and the like, it’s not a bad OS, and I really like when Microsoft is going with it!
Let’s see, what else? I’ve been working on a lot of new things for Neowin on my spare time, although no one will see it for awhile. What is it? Not tellin’! Shhhh! It’s a secret! All I can say is, you’ll be happy when you see it.
Okay, that’s it for now… enjoy the rest of your Monday!

Today is my brother’s birthday. He doesn’t actually get online much (and lives very far away from me), but I thought I’d mention it was his 19th birthday anyway. I really need to remember to send out his card/gift.
Let’s see, what else… my parents and siblings are in the path of Hurricane Dennis, hopefully it doesn’t hit them too hard. We’ll have to wait and see this weekend what happens.
Well, that’s about it for now… have fun on your Friday!
Well, I turned the big “23″ today! That’s about all the news for you I have! If you want to send me a “Birthday Donation”, click the link below, it will show up differently than a “AutoPatcher Donation”. And for those who sent me e-mails, thanks for your kind words!!
One quick update… I fixed the problem caused by the new site index page being named different than the old site’s page. Now anyone going to http://www.autopatcher.com/Index.htm will be redirected to the front page, rather than the 404 page.

Well, I hope everyone enjoyed the holiday weekend (those that had one). I just noticed that we once again broke our records for people visiting the site! We had 63,110 Unique Visitors, this month… very awesome! I posted a picture that shows all the months compared to each other. Check it out:
On a side note, tomorrow is my birthday! Anyone getting me anything? haha
And finally, I noticed someone tried to “cheat” the giveaway by donating $0.04… knowing PayPal would take the entire thing and give us nothing. So, since it wasn’t said before, I’ll say it now… no donations under $1.00 will be allowed for consideration for the 100th Donation Giveaway. Since I didn’t say it before, the person who did that will have his name entered as a donator, but all others after him will not.
