ServerRack == BreadRack
Ok - while this is not related to certifications or technology, it's pretty funny, so I will share it with you. Being the geek that I am, I have a server rack - yes, a server rack - in the coat closet of our house. I have a 1u Dell machine (dual x64s) that I use to host virtual machines, an old x32 box that I turned into my PDC, and some miscellaneous switches and things.
At any rate - as I'm sure you all know, one thing about servers is that they tend to generate a lot of heat. As such, we have to be very careful to not leave the closet door shut all the time as the temperature can climb pretty quickly in that little room. However, my wife has now found a way to take advantage of this situation by using the server closet as a "bread-rising" room. Apparently, the server heats the closet up to just the right temperature so that bread dough can rise.
So I guess that if this technology gig doesn't pan out, we could always open a restaraunt!
