Im a SysAdmin since 1998. Maybe a bit earlier, if you count managing our home computer. This
means [SysAdmin Day](http://sysadminday.com/) is also celebrating me. However, my Emacs Calendar
doesnt show it for some reason.
The solution is pretty easy:
``` lisp
(add-to-list 'holiday-other-holidays '(holiday-float 7 5 -1 "SysAdmin Day") t)
```
Now invoke `holidays-list` for any year, choosing “Other” as the category, and there you go:
```
Friday, July 28, 2017: SysAdmin Day
```
