SAAD: SysAdmin Appreciation Day

Posted: Fri Jul 27, 2007 9:51 am

Yep, it's that time of year again (and if you were around last year, you'd know that I posted this exact same link on the last friday of July last year too). It's time to appreciate your sysadmin, if you've got one, take him or her out for a beer or their favourite fizzy drink, and most of all, remember that without them, your computing experience would be significantly more difficult and less reliable.

So, from this sysadmin to any sysadmins reading this: Happy SAAD, and thanks for all of your hard work and sacrifices in the last 12 months.

http://sysadminday.com/

If you want to make MY Sysadmin Day a Happy one, or to show your appreciation for *this* sysadmin's sacrifices, read the following:
http://isohunt.com/squirrel_m5/ ... and don't forget to donate $5USD to the 'buy me a BMW M5 fund' (btw, if 8,000 people donated $5 to my fund, I'd have the car of my dreams, which sadly, I don't have the resources to buy on my own currently).

Update:
After some discussion with the local BMW folks, I can get the M5 if I can cover an 'extra' $7k over what I originally offered as a down payment (total of $22k). If you have any excess and would like to show a little appreciation for ME (yes, i'm a self-serving and greedy bastard) please don't hesitate to hit the above link and donate as much as you think increased uptimes, faster pageloads and most of all, my happiness is worth.

I'll probably get in trouble for this part, but who cares? If you donate $100 or more, I'll send you an email, get your username or email on the site and give you site 'supporter' status until mine's set to expire (8302 days or approximately 22 years 9 months from today). If you're on the forums, you can either have a custom rank or the standard 'Supporter' rank at your choice, and if you join IRC and validate that you are who you say you are, I'll thank you personally for your contribution Smile

Happy SAAD, SecretSquirrel. Although I haven't been a member for the last 12 months, I have been a user as you well know, and your contributions have been incredible.

SecretSquirrel wants a BMW M5, now on sale for a low, low price of only $36,000. He said this upgrade to his SquirrelMobile will be so fast that he will be able to go from Arizona to our datacenter up in Canada instantly whenever there's an emergency. If not then he'll end up donating his kidney to get it. Seriously, he told me.

Save the squirrel's kidney and show your love, by donating today! Private message him for details.

Really? I thought he wanted a Mustang! LOL. SS is the man. If I was a millionaire, id buy you the M5. But since I'm not, you can settle for the "digital beer" lol

PS By the end of the day when i get home, notice the contribution to your fund. . . .even if its not a mustang
