WOW!! So much has happened since I last blogged! So much in fact that I’m now realising that I’m going to have trouble remembering any of it at all, but I’ll give it a go.

First off then, I’m an MCP, woooo. After my initial failing I looked to the internet for help and found “the good book”, of course you all know which book I refer to (Microsoft 70-290 exam cram) with the lord author by my side I did battle as I rode and passed with a score of 752 (I think… can’t remember exactly), so with this spankingly new qualification under my belt PriceMaurice and I are now Small Business Specialists… which is nice.

If anyone checks this website regularly they may have noticed that It has been down a couple of times this week, this is due to the fact that I’ve been transferring it to our new dedicated server This gives me complete control over the web server, it also meant I was without email for about four days as the internet would have no idea where my email server lived, chances are if anyone sent me anything it’s just been lost and they’ve not even had a failure report back informing them of my disconnectedness.

In uni this week I chose my final year project, I’m going to develop some sort of voice over IP telephone system using an open source server by the name of Asterisk, I’ve not got much idea of how it works so it’s sure to be a steep learning curve, should be fun!

Ummmm… what else… In work this week I disinfected the most spyware ridden PC I have ever seen! My god, it was so full of nasty bugs that it could practically crawl away, this gave me a great opportunity to learn all about Hijackthis, a great spyware cleaning program that takes quite a bit of knowledge to use, and I quite enjoyed it.

In cadets on Friday I was teaching my class about rocket propultion, as we reached the section about solid fuel rockets I asked the class for an example of a common solid fuel rocket that would be seen more and more in shops as the end of the month came closer. One bright young man raised his hand, when I asked him what his answer was he proudly told me “Pumpkins, Mr Moore!” I just couldn’t help laughing. Keep up the studying Jones, Only a month until the exams. I’m sure you’ll manage them!

Oh and someone sent me this video, I thought it was bloody awesome. So I hope you enjoy it too!

Bye for now,

Jon.
