Have you grokked your SYSADMIN today?

I almost had tears in my eyes when i read this at one of my favorite websites...

Sysadmins - the backbone of the backbone of our new global reality. 21st century technological sorcerers you might say. Sysadmins are equally at home deftly maneuvering through tangled infestations of PBX and networking cables to find a faulty jack as they are battling against the latest, most vicious viruses that hit the email scene. They are veritable unsung server room heroes!



Sysadmins come in all shapes, sizes and varieties (though some might suggest there is a general tendency on the shape question to possess a bit of 'mirth' around the midriff). Moving along, it's important for the good of the entire Universe to spend a few moments each day and grok your local Sysadmin. Economies and governments depend on it! Believe us, the only thing worse than neglecting your local Sysadmin is incuring his/her wrath. A Sysadmin with realized wrath distribution potential is even deadlier than hyper-killing ninja bunnies unleashed on a colony of legless mice on Valium. It's just not pretty.



What does Grokked mean? Go read Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein if you want the real answer. Lazy folks will just realize grok means something along the lines of 'deeply understand'. Grok it? Good.

@man!
