The Pros And Cons Of Internet Technology Education From Home
My friend in the office, Jeff, was freaking out last night as his favorite website was downed by a hacker, with the handle of The Masked Bandit. But Jeff loves a challenge, and since he has an online programming degree in his arsenal he set out to track down the Masked bandit’s identity and set things straight.
Officially our office closes at six, but after the security and cleaning folks had gone home for the night Jeff and I snuck back in and booted up the master computer. An eerie blue glow plastered Jeff’s face like a performer in that Quebecois circus Cirque du Soleil.
Suddenly a bolt of lightening flashed across the sky. Jeff keyed in his entry code. I grabbed a seltzer from the staff fridge. I realized I missed my family. It grew tense.
The pimpled forehead of the aging Masked Bandit slowly rose up on the screen in front of us. Strange how he chooses to reveal his scarred forehead while covering his eyes with a black bandana I thought. Of course he had fashioned eyeholes in the bandana, and his googly shark eyes bored into us as Jeff punched up the audio and we heard him speak.
“Earthlings, you feeble efforts belie your inner weakness and lack of fashion sense. Do not believe you can capture me. I am the Masked Bandit!” said the Bandit. The voice was somehow familiar.
But Jeff was on it! With 3 deft keystrokes he had located the Bandit’s home address.
333 Dustymeadow Rd – our office address. My game was up.
