Day 21,687

It is Tuesday morning, January 31st, the last day of the month, and, happily, payday.

Today is going to be an interesting day. I started a new course yesterday, Pacific Standard Time rather than Eastern or Central, working with an old friend. I am a little worried that some of the folks taking this course may not have cleared the prerequisites for the course. The questions that we received in class were pretty clear indicators that folks weren’t up to speed on some pretty basic security principles, and those questions take time away from the new stuff we need to cover in the class for the folks that are prepared.

It’s a challenge sometimes. About the eighth time we get a question that the learners should know going in, I start posting lessons to the chat from the class they should have taken beforehand.

I wonder how that sort of thing lands with the folks in the class.

I’m not a bad guy. I think I’m pretty level and steady, but that can be a test… and then there are the folks in attendance that have to be staring off into oblivion when they hear another elementary question that folks ought to know going in.

Oh, well. Let’s refocus on more pleasant topics.

Kansas Jayhawks host the Kansas State Wildcats tonight at Allen Fieldhouse. We owe them one… the Jayhawks lost by one point in Manhattan two weeks ago, so a little payback is in order.

That’s enough for now, time to get the coffee brewing.

I hope the world is treating you better than you deserve.

Peace y’all.
