Playlist of the Day: Booty Shakers and Money Makers

No post yesterday, I was too busy prepping for a Cisco exam, stressing over a Cisco exam, doing a Cisco exam, and finally passing with 976 out of 1000 points for same (I did the CCNP ROUTE one, fairly tricky). Whoo hoo! Then I went out celebrating. Which is harder than it sounds on a Monday evening, but I managed to turn it into a respectable bender.

So to recapture my happy mood of yesterday, enjoy this funkfest of a playlist.

 

It is weird that I'm slightly annoyed at knowing I could have passed with 1000/1000? I got 100% on every topic except one. There was one simulator question where there were two objectives, I spent a lot of time just getting the first right, and when I did I was so happy I pressed "next". You can't go back to questions on these exams. Oh well. Overall I'm very happy with these new style exams - less rote memorization of dull facts, more applied knowledge demonstrated in sims. Next up - SWITCH (after a short decompression break). Go go go!

Saturday is Make Some Noise Day: The Evil Overlord Soundtrack

That's right, I compiled an evil overlord soundtrack. For all your scheming, conniving, and general villainy. Enjoy it while plotting to take over the world and subjugate mankind.

ps. don't forget THE LIST

Playlist of the Day: The Beta Band, We Miss You

These guys by rights should have been as massive as Radiohead, if you ask me. Instead they broke up. I never even got to see them live! Gah. Steve Mason has gone on to a solo career and several of the others are now playing in The Aliens, and in both you can hear echos of the Beta Band; well worth a listen to too if you haven't heard them before. Anyway, enjoy some of my favorites of theirs.

Playlist of the Day: I Don't Know What To Call This But I Was Thinking Of You When I Made It

I'm in the mood for a playlist today. And actually I know exactly what to call this but...
