Okay! So I couldn’t wait and re-dyed my hair again last night. While I’m not looking for a “OMFG!!11 It’s teh BLUE!!” color, I’d like it to be at least somewhat blue.
Anyway, it seems to have made it slightly bluer! Whoo!! Here’s a couple images for ya… here’s me with the dye in my hair last night:
The death toll, along with the water in what’s left of New Orleans, is rising fast in the wake of Katrina, and I’d like to ask any of those reading to donate to the cleanup and relief if you have some extra cash. Here are two links you can use:
Donate to the Red Cross
Donate to the Salvation Army
If you choose the Red Cross, make sure to choose “Hurricane Relief” to direct your funds there, and also note they require a minimum donation of $5 USD. Just remember that as you sit here and read this, hundreds are trapped on roofs and in attics, and $5 might just help save a few of them. My thoughts and wishes go out to all the victims, survivors, and families.
On the same note, if you’d like a 1280 x 1024 wall I made of Katrina’s eye (taken by a hurricane chaser), click the little image below.
Well, it seems I lost track of time for the past month. I’ve been kept quite busy so I forgot to update the site. I’m sure you all forgive me.
So, first things first. Go get the October issue of Maximum PC! AutoPatcher is featured there and I want everyone to see. If they don’t sell Maximum PC near you, just click the image below to see the article:
Now, on to AutoPatcher 2000 news. RC2 is being released to testers today so expect a release this month.
Well, what about AutoPatcher XP? Don’t fret, I’ll have an AutoPatcher XP release this month as well (it will be for SP2 systems, I’m still debating whether to keep going with the SP1 releases).
And for a little bit of personal news, I was promoted to the “Grafix” team on Neowin, and helped to get all the images ready for the IPB 2.0 rollout. Also, I got myself a kitten! She’s all white, just barely 3 months old, and loves being next to the computer! Everyone say hello to Mishka (my girlfriend picked out her name):
Okay kids, that’s all for now… I need to finish up the AutoPatcher 2000 release as well as a few other things!

On this Veteran’s day we look back and know there are hundreds of thousands military members that are retired and active duty who have placed their lives on the line for our country as well as others. We know of the battles they have fought overseas, but many don’t realize the financial battle many face [...]
SpaceX, the private company established by PayPal’s founder Elon Musk, has made history by successfully launching their Falcon 1 rocket and achieving orbit. Falcon 1 has made history as the first privately developed liquid fueled launch vehicle to achieve earth orbit! The amazing thing about this is that it was only their fourth [...]
What is the deal with Stand Up Comics? Do they really have to stand up? Does this somehow help the jokes they are telling? What if they get tired and have to sit down? And why don’t they just sit down anyway? It seems it’d make them more comfortable, I mean, you don’t have to [...]
Well, the world’s largest Physics experiment is up and running and we’re all still alive. Yep, the world didn’t explode and the universe didn’t end or anything. Who’d a thunk that these scientist-types knew what they were talking about? Hopefully the tests give them the information they’re looking for and perhaps we’ll finally find out where [...]
