Yes, I’m going there. But not for the reasons that you might expect. I’m not going to make this a right vs left, red vs blue, or bears vs packers issue.

I’m going about this from a bit of experience in the not so distant past. My wife and I had been traveling in another state and unfortunately had to take a trip to the emergency room. It was early in the morning when she fell ill. Its happened before and we basically run down to the ER, she gets an IV and we’re good to go in a few hours. We had narrowed down the condition but at 3 in the morning, neither one of us could remember what the heck it was. Its noted in her medical file back here in Des Moines.

Seriously CNN, is this the best that you can do?

In case you are wondering why people no longer look to you for news, this is why. Some blowhole closing his twitter account shouldn’t make the front page of cnn.com.

Living in Iowa, I feel pretty fortunate that we haven’t been hit as bad as other areas of the country.

For some reason, the Climate Gate articles have not made enough of a splash in the main stream media. I’m sure that the conspiracy theorist will have a reason why this is happening. I just don’t think that the story has gotten enough attention yet. So…here is a pretty good article on what has happened:

Yes, its true, I passed the test. It wasn’t easy. In fact, I took the test 2 times.

The first time I went into the test I felt fairly confident. I had studied the admin guide and the maximum guides. I had taken the mock exams and done well on those. (Huge thanks for Simon Long and his great site of resources!!!) I thought that I had a fair understanding on how vSphere4 worked. I had taken the class and messed around with it a bit before the test. I wasn’t an vSphere admin day in and day out by any means, but I felt competent that I could successfully perform most tasks. Surely I’d be able to pass the test enough to get by right? WRONG! You really need to know your stuff on this test.
