> Error establishing a database connection

How fitting...

Looks like somebody took the day off.
I really thought 'Error establishing a database connection' was _the_ joke. :|
Protip: Buy your sysadmins a cake from the grocery store for $10, and have them write on it in icing, can you please fix the database server now? (I know that's really for DBAs, but it's topical...)
> Error establishing a database connection

Very funny. :)

Does anyone have any stories to share where someone in a non-technical position recognized this day?

....Anyone?

please be a joke
Now it's totally down... Bad SysAdmin day?
BOFH day
