Mmmmm... Sysadmins are usually Taoists by practice, seeking balance,
tranquility and the path of least resistance...
So, the natural state of a system is to seek Borkenness. The Sysadmin seeks
to carefully balance a number of ever changing factors in an effort to keep
that system at the totally unnatural state we refer to as Workingness.
Much like attempting to balance a merry-go round on the point of a pencil,
Except that we're trying to balance the whole damn amusement park...
