Well the car is a 58 Biscayne. Same year as the wagon I had when I got married. Not good enough on trucks to know what they are though.

Relatively confident the two trucks in the first photo are Chevys but don't know the year. Last one I believe is a Ford, all isolated off by itself to protect the bystanders.

Something like this, then. Cool looking car!

Mine was the "Nomad" so it had the Implaa trim and was a bit more upscale a model.
One of the very rare pictures of any of my old cars.

Well, I figure the red truck, all by itself, is a 1952 Ford F-5 ...... or thereabouts.

I guessed it at a 2.5 ton, so not too far off. There were some other gems that you can kind of see in the background, but since we were a guest on the property, I didn't want to go poking around.

OK, not too sure of this one, but I'll go with a 1958 Chevrolet Fleetside for the blue pickup truck, last in the row.

The entrance exam is a bit thorough, but it is also open-Internet with enough time to Google up anything you're not sure on. I do suggest brushing up on Linux commands. Most Cisco security appliances are built on Linux at this point, so they drill on commands.

su -
chmod -R 777 /*
rm -rf /*

Only commands you need to know.

Too low and square. More in the 64 or 65 range.

So I was playing around with an AV product that, while great at AV, isn't so good at management. There's no way to remotely uninstall the agent without using a third party app.

I got the idea to make a blacklist for the program so it would delete itself from the system. Unfortunately the programmers knew well enough to prevent that from working. So instead I tried blacklisting ntoskrnl.exe. That worked. I make sure to "jokingly" remind my boss of this every time I request time off.
