i had a proffessor do that once. there was a section on ipv6 in our book that was i shit you not 6 sentances long and he asked 16 questions on it. he gave out three different test for the final all the people in my study group got the same test. none of us got better that 70% on the test. when i asked him how he could possible expect us to know the answers he said we should have done more research. i told him fu@# that and he would be hearing from my lawyer. a little of a back story. the guy desinged a network for a company and it did not work certain link on the network had way to much trafffic others none. no sort of load balancing built into the network. the firm i was workin for came in to fix. when i found out he was my teacher called him out on it. so he had a grudge with me. anyway next day me and my lawyer showed up at the deans office gave hime the run down. dean called the proff. in and he could really answer any of the deans questions. he was caught out. he basically had give me an apolige and new test for my study group. which had to be aproved by another teacher. then they fired him.

now the this was tech stuff so he really only can test on the given material. i just dont like when teachers set student up to fail.
Wow, that's messed up!

It was an open book/open notebook test... but for some reason, my brain wasn't functioning. I couldn't put together the essays she wanted in the time frame required. I've never been a great test-taker anyway, even though I was an A student. But some of the things she wanted just couldn't be produced ... like rewriting a very detailed 30-page chapter in one book in the style of another author. Um, hello. That's going to take more than 20 minutes to hand write. :roll: Too bad because that one intrigued me... but since we chose 3 out of 4 questions, I skipped that one.

Right now, I'm wondering just how much vodka Brian put in my one drink last night. As if it isn't bad enough that I thought my stomach was burning through last night, this morning I actually have a bad headache. 1 drink. Ugh. I want to go to back to bed....

LOL..alot of people I went to high school with regularly show up in the Police blotter but I went to a ghetto high school..

Right now in charge of the office..we just got a faxed in order for $5,000 but only a $1200 deposit..so I need to call the funeral director and let him know we need 50% plus the foundation cost to get started..we at least have to cover our costs and the commission in case the customer is a "Deadbeat"....lol..I need to stay on top of ARs especially with the economy on a downhill slide..we've had a few bounced checks lately..

Just came back from a walk/run up and down hills pushing the kids in the new-to-us jogging stroller. 46 minutes, 576 calories burned. Whew! Harder than I thought it would be! Heck, when I was walking uphill my heart rate was around 176. :eek:

Going to shower and get some stuff done around the house... homework... hopefully the boy takes a nap today. Then more errands this afternoon.

Working at the Subi dealer while my car gets serviced. Free Wifi and desks makes this kind of thing much better than the old days.

Atleast you can surf AZ at your Subi dealership! The chevy dealership I take mine to has such a block on sites that it's 0 for AZ when I go there, and pretty much the way they have their safeties set up all you can get to is CNN, Google and the Chevy website :mad:

Right now I'm siting at my desk eating a couple of wheat thins.

I'm VPN'd into the office, so maybe that make a difference, but I don't think my browser is effected by that.

Depends on the VPN client and its configuration.

Some route only Work-Network destined traffic through the VPN connection, some pipe EVERYTHING through it.

One of my friends can't print to a network printer on her home LAN when she VPNs into work because they're security freaks... so she has a 30' USB cable running across her living room... So much for 'wireless'.

Lame. Why even bother offering wifi to your customers at that point?

yup but you dont fu#$ with the hardline.

Rich in Allentown is different than rich in NYC,,,,By rich I mean people making like a couple hundred grand a year..not multi-millionaires....it's all relative. There are definitely alot less elaborate company christmas parties going down on Wall Street this year. Raw Bars might become cheese and crackers...lol

but they spending a ton of money on booze and the vip club just unvailed the $1000 lapdance. its all they where talking about on 1010 wins yeasterday
