The end draws near!

Well the end of the term does anyways!

All I need to do for this term is take my skills test. And the only part I feel shaky on is the lab/practical part. Not so much in that I am not up to par but for some strange reason the routers and switches do not like me here. I get them set up and everything is entered correctly (the instructor looks it over) and it wont work correctly. Ill start over and still no good.

Last time we found an issue with a setting on the computer's firewall that was causing problems and fixed it. But that was at the end of lab so I did not get a chance to retest all aspects.

Hopefully that fix was all that was needed and things will go smoothly Monday.

A taste of Mardi Gras '06

A friend of mine from GamersOasis.net was sitting at home with his wife watching the live feed from Mardi Gras in New Orleans via an internet web cam. The it hit him that he was only one and a half hours away. So he called up his brother and they headed down to New Orleans to be on the web cam themselves. Here is a pic from that moment in time.

It looks like he was having fun. I also think it is downright cool that he could just up and go like he did. The one downside to this little adventure is that I think he probably felt like I did yesterday, like the living dead. Ya see he did not get home till around 2 am and had to be back up at 4:45 am. Me, I would have been useless all day; him, I am not to sure about!

So in thanks for him letting me use his pic and tell this story I am going to promote a wish/desire of his:
