This is definately CCNA material. It's not fair if you more advanced guys answer this. Dmaftie, this means you.
At least give folks a day or so to see the question and if nobody answers we can dive in and explain it.

I'm in the lab this afternoon and I was configuring an interface, but this kept happening:

r7(config)#int s 1
r7(config-if)#ip addr 204.100.100.2 255.255.255.240
Bad mask /28 for address 204.100.100.2

Why is it telling me this and what can I do to make it stop?

Doh! In this country "i" comes before "e" except after "c". Didn't they make you change this when you came over ?
Sorry for being such a dolt.

ip subnet-zero

The CCNA exam teaches you obsolete methods of subnetting. For the purposes of the CCNA, discard the first and last subnets. For real life, make good use of them. My personal preference (and I don't really know why I started doing this, but somebody must have showed me at some point) is to use the zero subnet for inter-switch links and the all ones subnet for loopbacks. It just makes sense to me.
