If last week was the nuts and bolts of networking, this week we're discussing thread count and screw pitch.

We're diving into the deep end of how networking actually works.

First, we're going to tackle IP addresses and subnetting. And to help with the complexity, we're going simple with a nice Kentucky Mule. Bring that copper cup!

Next we're going to be talking ports and protocols (what are those things anyway?) and we're getting really simple. How much simpler can you get than bourbon, neat?

Lastly, we're addressing (see what I did there...) server-client architecture. And since we talked about CIDR early on, we're drinking cider to finish this thing out!

Sometimes complexity's best match is simplicity.
