Computer Stuff stuff
I have added a page about a Windows 3.x theme for Windows XP I made, as well as links to download it. It is here. There is also a page about Windows NT 3.51, it is not finished, but I went ahead and ran spell check on it and threw it up here. Some stuff has been added to the downloads section. I will probably make a forum topic about the Windows 3.x theme sometime soon.

The three bands will play a handful of northeast shows, then Dead To Me will take A Wilhelm Scream's spot on the remainder of the dates in Canada and in the midwest. Leftover Crack will join the three on the Detroit stop of the tour.

I think the main question here is why are there no Atlanta dates, or anywhere south of Kentucky, for that matter. Also, who thinks I should use the forum's new fancy calendar thing to post this? I don't really want to, it would just serve to remind me that strike anywhere never comes here, then I would be sad.

A minor footnote I forgot to
add to yesterday's news
The current version of the
website is now Chorus Of One 3.1. In honor of this momentous occasion, I
made this:
it is based on this
which is, of course, the Windows 3.1 boot screen logo. I have updated the system information page to reflect this. I have also done lots of editing and re-organizing to the website history, go read it if you haven't yet.

I upgraded the forum...
but all of the topics are hidden and for some reason any user with 0 posts no longer exists. When a new topic is made, it is posted as a reply to an old topic in order that they were originally created. I have about 187 topics to re-create and put back into their original subforums. if anyone wants to help, restoring an old topic is just as easy as making a new one, and it will say you created it even if you did not.
That is done, Now I need to re-install all the add-ons. but now I am going to bed. More updates tomorrow.
Floyd's random thoughts
I went to two shows last week
I locked my keys in my truck at DTM, OWTH, TRB and had to miss nearly all of Dead To Me's set waiting for the locksmith to come open the door.
That show on the 12th was really great, I have not been to a house show since may, house shows are nearly always better than regular shows.
HA! I said regular shows, Regular Show is one of the best cartoons on Cartoon Network in years.
Wednesday is Mixtapes. I am super stoked for that show.
I am going to try to upgrade the forum to SMF 2.0 soon, there isn't really any need for it since nobody uses it, but it should kill some time. Maybe 2.0 can do a better job of keeping out spambots.
I am still debating with myself as to if I should finally join the facebook. Maybe I should just join it and keep doing this and just post links from there to here so I can still keep all my internet stuff super safe but still have a facebook to keep up with shows and stuff.
AND SYFY CHANNEL FUCKING CANCELED EUREKA. Next season (2012) will be the last one ever, unless they pay for another half-season to tie up all the loose ends. It is now only a matter of time until they cancel Warehouse 13.
wow, this was the most random, all-over-the-place entry yet.

August random thoughts and show list
Rather than making a separate topic for all my random shit that happens this month, I thought I would post it all in one topic, this one. Anyway, if you are the one person who, according to Google Analytics, is from Atlanta and visited this website on July 20 then you should try to come to some of these shows and find me, we can talk about how you found this place.

I changed some font colors.
The main text color went from This color that you see here to this color you are reading now, I basically swapped the main text color and the news subtitle color, I think it will be easier to read. but it's still LCARS. If you think I should change it back, post something, assholes.
