Golf Day

Well, work setup this annual golf day. Today was the day, I'm not usually into this stuff due to some ongoing medical issues but I figure I had a choice go to work or get paid to play golf.... Golfing it was, it was a great day for it. It was somewhat overcast but it was definately warm enough. We were in teams of four so we got a cart and began playing. I must admit the golfing part is fun but racing around the course with the golf card is far to much fun. At the end we all gathered in the clubhouse and had burgers and fries. We all got our prizes for the day and then we proceed to drink what might have been in my case far to much. I must admit when I drink if I have more than say 3 beer I either have to get plastered or I will get a headache. Needless to say I'm typing this with a headache. All in all this was a great day at work. My only wish is we would do this every 2 or 3 weeks but I guess someone might get upset about this. It sounds like we might be doing night golfing in Sept. I'm sure I will have a few to many then.

Education

I recently took a course and they made a valid point, in regards to education. They explained how it's up to me to take responsibility for my education. Since I am recently retired military where you don't get a choice (not really) in what courses you will be doing. I have gone a rampage with training requests for course I would like to have. To my surprise I have been given every course I have asked for. I am in the process of doing the SANS 560 course. If anybody gets a chance to do this course I highly recommend it. I've also requested to start doing university courses. Once again I did get approved to start these courses as well. I have also put in for some managerial course. I'm waiting to hear back about them, but I'm sure I will be getting them as well. I am going to edeavour to keep this blog up to date since this will be a great record for myself.

Trying out blogging

Well, it's taken me some time to actual start a blog. I guess the real reason is because my wife started one herself. I think my theme for my blog will be somewhat computer related. I am a system analyst, in actual fact more like a network administrator/wannabe security guru. I've never been keen on bragging to people about how great I am so you won't find that on this either. This is going to be more of my thoughts and maybe some info about security, links and just about anything else I feel like whinning about. Hopefully this will help me keep my own thoughts straight and may bring some laughter out for other people. So enough of that and on with the show....
