Today is System Administrator Appreciation DayWikipedia summarizes it as:

System Administrator Appreciation Day, also known as Sysadmin Day or SAAD (as in Happy SAAD!), falls on the last Friday in July. It exists solely to show appreciation to sysadmins and people with other similar occupations.
[...]
Typical observances of this holiday are to present gifts to your Sysadmin. These gifts include chocolate, beer, wine, electronic toys, video games, and cake & ice cream.

So, reward your local SysAdmin!  Open your Monad prompt, type get-process a few times, then go buy yourself chocolate, beer, wine, electronic toys, video games, cake, and ice cream.

[Edit: Monad has now been renamed to Windows PowerShell. This script or discussion may require slight adjustments before it applies directly to newer builds.]
