Next time a surprising bug pops up on my server I'll just blame it on cosmic rays and reboot.

"Sunspots" is a very old sysadmin joke.
I actually have had one user take me seriously with that one. It's been a while, but I believe I also attributed her problem to the phase of the moon as well.
I tend to deduce and eventually blame either gravity or gremlins. I was never wrong.
