LAN Class

I can't believe I forgot to tell you about my LAN class last week.  Something good always happens in that class.  By the way if you missed the last post about my LAN class, LAN is an acronym for Local area network.  Basically we are learning to become computer network specialists(computer nerds).  In this class we all basically know everything about computers and if we don't we fake it.  In this spectacular four hour class we discussed cables or wires that connect networks.  Yes there is enough information on cables that we can take up 4 hours of lecture.  It's so interesting.  You may think that I am being facetious but I'm not.  For some reason this is interesting to me. 

So we were talking about how cat 5 cable is better than coaxial cable.  This is a very well known fact.  Most everyone in our class already knows this.  One of the guys in our class spoke out and said that his boss says coaxial is much better than cat five. Some instances it is.  He works for one of the cable companies in town.  Our teacher proceeded by telling the guy that his boss is wrong and coaxial does have benefits but cat 5 is a better networking wire.  He however did not like being corrected and stormed out of class.  He forgot his bag and everything.  He was to say the least very mad.  Everyone in class looked at each other kind of like Jim from the show "The Office" looks at the camera.  Well he missed the best part of class and hopefully some how got is bag back. We all have our boxes (laptops) in our bags.

If you could only be in this class with me, I think you would love it to.  The crazy things that happen in LAN class.  You can't help but laugh. 

Kind of funny video below.
