  1. All I know, I googled. on What's the Point of IT Certifications? · · Score: 1

    I work for a public school district, and on my first day of work, was asked by my employer what I thought about certifications. I replied, "It's just a tool of corporations to make money off of a useless piece of paper". Long story short, my temp job turned into a multi-year contract. BTW: I am a college drop-out, self taught, technology enthusiast. I have no paper behind my name, but I can figure out pretty much any technological problem with enough google'n. I make more now, per year, than anything I made up to date. If you can show what you know, a signed parchment is moot.

  2. On a treo 600 on Reading Slashdot From Strange Locations · · Score: 1

    I test drove a treo 600 at the local Sprint PCS store, and the first site I went to was slashdot. Then I posted a troll anonymously. I love technology.

  5. I saw it. on Fahrenheit 9/11 Discussion · · Score: 0

    I saw the film on the first day it came out.
    I laughed, I cried, I was disgusted, I cheered.

    It was a brilliantly executed piece, and made
    me happy that one individual, albiet backed by
    a few film distributors, would put his neck on
    the line to express an opinion that will go against
    the grain of this nations patriotic president puppets.

    However, the first thought I had after leaving the theater was... "That was a great film, but it won't change anything".

    I'm voting for Kerry, because he's not Bush.

    But the powers that be, that continue wars for oil, and allow terrorist acts to occur globally,
    are bigger than a seat in the whitehouse, or a guy swinging a club on a golf course.

    The President's cabinet has been deep in the woodwork of our system since the 70's - 80's, and one switch of power won't clean out the system.

    My opinion. Your miles may very.

  8. Funny tech request on The Oft Frustrating Job of a Sysadmin · · Score: 1

    I work for a local public school district. I showed up one of the buildings in the district, and talked to a local tech who had the strangest request.
    It seems a teacher needed to send an attachment in an email, and didn't know how. The tech ended up going to the teacher's classroom, and opened up their email client... then asked "Where's the document you want to send?" The teacher then handed the tech a sealed envelope.
    True story.
