Thanks for all the congrats guys. I definitely am glad I made the jump from zoology to IT. My brother graduated with a bachelors in zoology and he's had serious troubles finding a job."Bribe is such an ugly word. I prefer extortion. The X makes it sound cool."

If only we could combine brains
I really want to pick up some good cisco knowledge and be certified in both vendors. I'm planning on taking the JNCIE-ER in June and if all goes well I'll be hitting the books hard and learning some cisco routing "Bribe is such an ugly word. I prefer extortion. The X makes it sound cool."
