From a Facebook friend (i.e., someone I barely know!): “Spending the day migrating sites off of a very sick server. Do I have no life because I am a sysadmin, or am I a sysadmin because I have no life?”
Separately, I was at the airport this morning and watched two charter pilots get into an airplane headed to Florida. They’ll be calling their kids from mobile phones tonight and returning home some time tomorrow.
Perhaps we should should all take a moment to thank those who work on holidays so that the rest of us can enjoy. (That said, of course I am working, at least until 5 pm when I shut down from a Christmas lights helicopter tour.)
How can one see Christmas lights before 5pm?
Jess: Christmas lights before 5 pm? It gets plenty dark around 4 pm in Boston that close to the winter solstice. Check your sunrise/sunset tables.
