I will dig it up. 4.5 bore, 4.5 stroke.

Yup Mike and I do work together. We have quite a large crew in Columbus, 3. He is saying I am old? I am going to have to drag him out and drink him under the table on Blue Coat.

Look at Huntington National Bank, the HRC is usually hiring.

Such a nice compliment....wait a minute! I see what you did here, you said I was smart but very old as well. You tricky bastard!!! You still at VzB?

Oh, BTW, I am a networker with 10 years watching data move around (Token Ring and Ethernet, IP and IPX) I have had CCNP (expired) CCNI (expired) and CCSI (expired) I currently hold C|EH, CCNA, ACMX #8 plus A+ and N+ (BS required for one of my teaching gigs). I currently work for a Silicon Valley manufacturer that competes with Cisco, Riverbed and the like. I have heavy teaching experience in networking and wireless LANs.

Given the amount of experience I have, and the thousands of enterprise global networks I have interfaced with (In this country and abroad), I doubt my head will spin. Since you are so solid with Cisco, the CCNA should be a snap. Go take it. (spoken like a true CCSI eh?)

Of course Mr. Hobbz, if your age is correct in your profile and you walked in to interview with me...I wouldn't expect you to know IOS like the back of your hand. My business is probably running IOS that was written before you were able to legally sign a contract. In your case, you cannot tell me you have 10 years experience so I expect a cert. I used to interview at UUNET quite a bit and I would give you two 2500's DCE-DTE cable and tell you I forgot the passwords, make the two laptops ping eachother. If you didn't ask me for AUIs and wonder what the big serial port on the back was, I would figure you are lying about your experience. If you were done in 10 minutes, I knew the cert didn't matter. In the world I work in now, I get the cursory questions regarding various high level topics but mostly they want to hear about my experience. Lessons learned are much more high paying than fancy book learnin, IMHO. Out of curiosity, who here believes 6 figures is possible on either certs or experience alone?

So, as a person that has done this for a while.... Basic certs are usually required CCNA is a good example. But then it usually goes without saying that you have x years experience. I don't have any advanced certs (anymore) and I will say that I do alright. As far as where the money is. Yes, Security is way up there. Network security folks need more knowledge to harden a network but usually they are hard to find because traditionally Network and Security are on opposite sides of the argument. Networks make data move, security stops it...

I know a CEO of a company. Does that mean he will make me the CIO?

Certifications or Experience? What pays more?

Up north they heat with radiant way more than in Ohio. My father puts in radiant slabs for truck shops all the time.

Currently, where the heat xfer piping will be, is a field.

So some comments. It costs me $800/5weeks to heat in the winter. I have a neighbor with the exact same house that pays $120/month for electric and is on geo-thermal. Thus, the ROI is much shorter and since Propane isn't getting cheaper.... I have 3 acres of land and plenty of room for a slinky-coil rather than doing wells. so I don't have to recirc vertically or pump and dump.

who should I ask for?

I want to get Geo-Thermal heating for my house because propane is insanely expensive. I had ComfortXpress come out and do a very detailed site survey. I told the sales guy that I had the money to buy it. I asked over and over for the quote. nothing, for 3 months. Anyone know of a company that does Geo-Thermal heating?

Because I dig the money and I dig working for Silicon Valley companies.

this is windows xp, no? I just did this on an XP VM and it worked fine... my guess is still that it is your provider messing with you, either via latency or due to them blocking the site. set your dns to 198.6.1.2

Not sure where this web host is located, looks like Phoenix. The ultra long response times you are experiencing coupled with the crazy routing to get to this host lead me to believe the webserver isn't allowing the connection. I guess the next thing you could try is type telnet http://www.ohio-firearms.com 80 <enter> get <enter> This should give you some response from the webserver. It looks like this site is hosted on an apache box. At this point if you get a response, I would believe it is latency related.

will you be able to show up on time to your new job, or is that not something you can correct?

tracert http://www.ohio-firearms.com where does the trace die?

So, important info. No computer in the house can get there unplug your router and plug it back in What do you have in between your computers and the Internet?

That would be no. start-run-cmd enter ping http://www.ohio-firearms.com <enter> what didja get?

didn't I just post something about this? getk9.com, turn on spyware protection

more than one browser? Is it a work laptop that goes thru a proxy? do you have static DNS configured? are you going to ohio-firearms.com or http://www.ohio-firearms.com?
