    Isn't there a "no multiple moderators on the same flight rule" in the moderators disaster recovery and forum continuity guide? icon_lol.gif

    I'm sure we've already violated that rule. Me, you and Mark were within 30 miles of each other a few months back (when Mike and I went to dinner). Scary. Johan might penalize us for such a dangerous stunt. icon_lol.gif

    Nah, he won't penalize us. He was just jealous he couldn't be there too. icon_lol.gif And I didn't even tell him you bought dinner. :D

    One of the alarm cats has been going off at 5:30am

    If you pull the tail that at least acts as a snooze button.... :D

    Well, Mike should be well under way... Too bad he is on the west coast, we have to wait three more hours for a report icon_sad.gif

    My fingers are starting to hurt, it's hard to type while holding my fingers crossed. I hope they'll send him the results asap and don't let him wait too long.

    Well I have to congratulate you since your attemping it ^_^, I figured ya go for R&S first, but I guess not, I'm still debating rather or not to go for CCIE R&S, I'm sure the plaque would be nice on my wall.... and I'd have a kick @$$ party... I think if I do decide to go for it, I'll do the opposite of you, R&S first, then Security, then possibly Service provider optical carriers to finish it all, if i dont retire before then lol...

    I wish ya luck ^_^

    Tick Tock...

    Mike must be drunk in the limo on the way to the airport knowing he passed.
    On the road to Cisco. Will I hunt it, or will it hunt me?

    Mike man this waiting is killing me too. I'm only two miles from the Cisco campus. Maybe I should drive over and ask em.

    We should have set you up with a mic, camera, and live connection so you could have reported from in front of the building. Keep your eyes open for a limo with a guy sticking his fresh haircut out of the roof, holding a Guiness ;)

    Just call me Toto.... 'cause I sure wasn't in Kansas!

    Tactical errors.... brain freeze....

    Just after lunch (when the brain freeze melted) was the last time I thought I still had a chance..... then the TYPO.... at least one that I found. icon_eek.gif

    At least the R&S CCIE taking the Security Lab for the 5th time also worked with a CCIE that passed R&S first try, but took 5 trys before getting Security.

    The CCIE SPs he works with -- all took 2 or less trys for SP (after their R&S).

    They still had the new Security Equipment in boxes.... icon_sad.gif

    ....So I looked at the 4 switches in the R&S rack for my February attempt at that. :D cough cough cough old cough (but where you cough could be different).

    I didn't ever get the pre-test jitter. :D

    And there really isn't a post-test let down....

    I slept! :D I woke up still on Chicago time just 1/2 hour before my usual wakeup time.... and tried to sleep some more, but couldn't. Got out of bed an hour before the alarm.

    I think I'll grab a nap.... and take a day off.

    Feburary is the key :D Now that you know what the environment looks like you can walk in and own the place.
