Friday the 13th
Today was a day of death. Friday the 13th strikes fear into the bits of machinery everywhere.
8:50 am: A monitor suffers mysterious but sudden death. Efforts are made to return the computer to a functional state with a new head.
9:14 am: The computer attached to the new head suffers mysterious but sudden death. Efforts are made to replace the body.
9:30 am: The dead computer's replacement sounds like a lawnmower. Its eyes are replaced.
This misfortunate continued throughout the day, crowning at the moment when the fileserver assocated with the production server failed to come up following a mysterious but ultimately fatal power outtage in the city where our servers are stored.
Coincidence? I think not.
