I’m finally back on track for my MCSA! Whoo! Only two tests stand before me and the certfication, and the first to get beaten to a pulp by my brain is the 70-290: Managing and Maintaining a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Environment. Piece of cake, right? 
Anywho, I’m hoping to get this one under my belt before the middle of March, so wish me luck on it! I’m thinking it won’t be too horrible, as this is something I do for a living, but you never know!
I give to you what I believe may be the worst news article ever written. It’s quite long, but trust me, it’s worth it. This article makes me wonder not only what type of person wrote it, but what type of editor decided it was good enough to go out.

Computer spammers are the elusive people so many love to hate.
They’re also hard to find but sometimes they do get caught.
And so the article begins… it was written just like this. Amazing.
A heartland man pleaded guilty to the crime at a time when spam e-mailing is on the rise again.
If you have an email account, it has probably happened to you.
It happened to UNO student Desi Holman.
Not Desi! 
Oh noes!
Then there are safety concerns. Some spam wants our money.
Others try to deliver a computer virus.
It’s the reason UNO has cyber security director Bret Blackman.
I think UNO should send this writer a tutor.
Worldwide, 90 percent of all email is spam.
The volume has doubled in a year’s time.
Spam filters can’t keep up.
“The volume of spam in the last year has increased so much that it is estimated that 90% of e-mail (worldwide) is now spam; this is twice as much as it was last year. The problem is so severe that many Spam filters can’t keep up and companies are seeking other solutions.” There… I think that’s what he meant to say.
Channel 6 contacted Josh Eveloff at his business, but he did not return my calls.

I was playing with my boss’ Nikon D80 camera the other day, and I thought I’d test out his macro lens. I thought this was a pretty nice pic of my Paradise Fish, Charlie:

I only wish I could find an Albino to have at home… I had tried to save a sick one from a pet store, but he didn’t make it (he had a gash on his side and they were going to put him down. I treated him, but it was already infected… poor little guy). On the bright side, it made me go look for that breed of fish and I ended up finding Charlie!
