"Error establishing a database connection" Is this a bad (and sad) joke, right?

How fitting...

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?

Now it's totally down... Bad SysAdmin day?

BOFH day
