It’s nice when you can sleep through a power outage

This is a belated post but still note worthy so I’m posting it anyway;  Tuesday morning at approx 12:06am utility power to our datacenter was unexpectedly lost, the big ass UPS took the load, the generator fired up and the transfer switch flipped to generator.  All systems returned to normal operation while on generator… fantastic and flawless was this transition that no page woke me up from my slumber.

1hr 21min later utility power was restored, the system then waited for utility to be stable for 20 minutes and auto transferred back over to line power, this also went flawlessly and I was finally awakened a few minutes later by another tech saying “hey we just got off generator” to which I responded “We were on generator?”.  Needless to say all the backup systems worked as they were supposed to and I had a very nice evening 🙂

Would anyone mind creating a *good* radio station in Tucson?

I for a long time administered a online amateur radio station (unrealradio.org)  it has since been passed on to  a friend.  However even though it is small and very unorganized it still seems that the actual end product to the user was/is of superior quality compared to that of the production of the local radio stations here in Tucson namely, KFMA 92.1.  During any given day you can experience up to 30 total minutes of complete dead air where someone forgot to do something or tripped over some cord.  At any rate, a small online radio station run by a few people results in less dead air… and lets not for get the “world famous” Frank show… what a joke that is… perhaps world famously awful.

Hippies arrested on capital hill yesterday (fuck you cindy sheehan and have fun in jail, it’s about time). Today more crazy hippies that smoked too much pot saying that 9/11 was planned by the government and the twin towers were taken down by demolitions….give it up people… stop licking Rosey’s cooch and get a life.

I’ve spent my day of remembrance getting pissed off at the underbelly of our society coming out of the cheeba huts, VW bus vans, and from hemp making classes to come and insult both the families of the victims of 9/11 and the people fighting for this country.

Cindy Sheehan you should be ashamed of yourself for disrespecting a four star general who has done more for this country than most of us (especially you).  I’m sure you are going to accuse the government of arresting you for speaking your mind however that assault on the police officer says otherwise. Have fun continuing to be the worlds biggest douche while I proudly support our troops and their families and this country.

Quote of the day: “Save the country, kill a fuckin’ hippy:
