Yes, its true. Its time to celebrate System Administrator Appreciation Day. Its always the last Friday of the month of July.

For those that don’t know. Sysadmins are the people that fix your printers, stay up late patching servers, migrating mailboxes or making sure that the company keeps running with laptops, file servers, email and chat. So today is your day to show your appreciation. Take us out for lunch or buy us a beer!

I’m calling this the new standard for wedding entrances. They’ve laid the ground work, its time for the rest of you to figure out how to follow. Mine was dreadfully boring compared to this. Awesome!

Here is the spam that I got from Verisign:

Badass!

Its Monday, you’re having trouble concentrating and that’s OK. I’m here to help.

Here is a story that I found last week that I decided to save for the blogosphere just for this week. It goes back to the good old days of the SR-71 BlackBird. You know, our kick ass spy plane that started seeing action 40 years ago. This is a story of a training flight. There are many other amazing stories about this plane, but every once in a while you like to know that for all the training, training and more training that our men and women in the armed forces do, they still like to have a little bit of fun.
