The beginning can be a difficult thing...

Welcome one and all!
So this is the beginning.  Not the easiest things to do, but will see what we can do on that front anyway.  

Does the world really need another blog?  I am gonna have to say yes.  The great thing about the internet is that there is something out there for just about everyone.  If you happen to discover that it is not out there for you, well then... Go create it yourself.

So here is what I wanted to do with this blog:
1) Focus on CCIE Service Provider issues.
2) Help focus myself for an attempt at the same.
3) See where I can try to help the community as a whole.  

I have taken some inspiration from a couple of the other CCIE bloggers out there and figured that if I could help others in the same way, well it will have served #3 above.

To be Anonymous or not?  I am going to say yes for the moment and here is why:
I really want to stay impartial to hardware, software as well as training material out there.  There is no totally pure Cisco, Juniper, Nortel, Foundry, F5, etc... shop out there.  That being said, I am going to do my best to remain impartial.  We all have to deal with other carriers, vendors, customers and the like.  I want to try and remain honest to those I serve and that I rely upon to get my job done.

I am open to comments and will see what I can do to respond threads when appropriate.

Thanks and look forward to seeing what we can do to have more people get a second, or maybe even third, CCIE.
