Just a brief release on the Arizona Immigration Law trifling du jour.  The Mexican gov't has issued the following statement: the law “violates inalienable human rights protected by international legal provisions and the U.S. Constitution” — sent officials to meet with U.S. groups challenging the law to coordinate “protection and consular assistance” and to provide legal representation for Mexicans in the state, the Foreign Affairs Ministry confirmed. It said Mexico would defend the rights of any Mexican nationals in Arizona, “regardless of their immigration status.”   So let me get this straight, for years now Mexico has been flooding the south west, well lets be honest the entire damn country to levels that require spanish as a second national language without even a hint at repayments, negotiations for healthcare support but now that a law in one state is put in place to require a "citizen" (and I use that term loosely) to present identification at an officers request they are chiming in with support for their nationals???  I wonder if I could get away with shit like that here in Canada.  Time NAFTA is given a second look and the Minutemen get federal funding.

So yeah, 4am colo maintenance. Had to be up at 4:30 and out the door to make sure these trillion dollar servers don't shit themselves with no one watching. Didn't even get a chance to get coffee at Dunkin, had to settle for office coffee. 

So far so good, the maintenance gods have smiled upon us so far, but we won't really know until some users log on and begin to do what most users do best: fuck shit up up, all day everyday. So when they start coming in, in around an hour, we will know for sure.

Driving to work in off hours is always a weird experience, especially early in the morning. No one on the roads, its still pitch black, have to turn lights on at the office. When you are new like me, it just seems weird, like being taken out of your comfort zone for a little bit.Just being at a new job is strange enough, trying to get to know people, get into a groove oonce oonce, its just odd.

Well, I looked out the window and its sunny out now, so I had better go grab more office coffee, and enjoy the fact I will be out of here at like 1:30pm today, if the gods of the spinning electron will it so.
