…Shouldn’t have afforded it but glad i could! This phone is a beast! Using connectBot SSH Client, I can reset a server @ 70 MPH on the friggin freeway, which of course is a blessing for work! This new technology is reminiscent of Neal Stephenson’s “Diamond Age (or A Young Ladies Primer)”. In “diamon Age”… PEEP IT!

I never thought i’d let Google know EVERYTHING about me, but i don’t have much to hide, so… I guess it’s worth it for superb technology that makes this geek’s life easier… and somehow more fun!

from restarting Red 5, to rebooting the whole damn thing, my troubleshooting eventually led me to 5-1hr + conversations with our hosting company. 2 clones were attempted and some other supposed debugging occurred until it was discovered that there was a bad sector on the hard drive.

immediately, i sought the consultation of Shawn haworth. after some lengthy conversation we agreed that downloading some gz onto a local Asterisk server was a safe bet. After following oracle like instruction, i configured the linux server so that Shawn may secure shell the VOIP server. 2 failed attempts and almost 24 hrs later, i was able to convince the dedi co. to slave our original drive so we may transport everything salvageable… The waiting game …

begins…. Here i am: Tuesday is the earth, cyberspace is space and i gotta drill a nuke in an asteroid to save the fuckin planet.
i’m the fuckin Bruce Willis of IT, bitch.

Shawn successfully transports most of the data but of course the most important data was stored in the damaged part of the harddrive. Thankfully (for the most part…. !@$#%), I (fuck) made a backup of our server on (fuckin) March 22….. mother fuck. Now i have alot of php updating and debugging to work while the rest of the office deals with the asteroid fragments that tore through the slaes, admin and executive departments….

ahhhh… my 1st 3 day weekend becomes my 1st over niter, awake having nightmares… It was fun though. I remixed a friends already dope track, had mischief and (pretty sure) saved the day with help from California! Mr. lehey and randy did not succeed this time….
