Y2K (Happy New Year 9 of 10)

[Note: “Y2K” refers to the “Year 2000 Software Disaster Prophecy,” which warned humankind that, at the beginning of the millennium, all electronic devices would feign incompetence and fly out of control, claiming that they could not compute dates after 1999.] 

Shout the famous protest-carol with me:

Y2K is AOK —
Nothing happened anyway

It is 12:01 o’clock. Hey, the Time Ball dropped; that was fun. Now, New York has entered the Y2K domain. Hmm, looks like there’s no terrorists today. To divert ourselves from this anticlimax, let us all repeat continuously the chorus of the protest-carol:

Yippity ding-dong, rikk-tikk-tchk.
