[ale] Godaddy Suxs!!!

[Jim Kinney]

And lazy would beat both apathy and procrastination for top slot of
sysadmin attitudes but it's too much effort.

I do always laugh at the BOFH stories until extra effort is expended just
to set up a fall for someone (PHB usually). No sysadmin I've ever met is
willing to put out more effort to do less. Violates all laws of
thermodynamics. An inactive sysadmin will remain inactive until forced to
change state. And an active sysadmin will eventual wind up at the pub.
