This isn't a joke, actually. It's a real contest being held by Red Gate software for DBAs (database administrators). I've just entered and I need votes. If y'all would like to send me into space (and hear stories about the trip when I get back), please vote to be my launch buddy at http://www.launchbuddi.es/5OHbk. I would greatly appreciate your support.
And I could use the experience to enhance my science fiction writing too. BONUS.
This is me begging, BTW. This is me pleading. Vote me into space. Pretty please with sugar on top?
