Don't worry about the night before Christmas, instead ... Twas the week after Christmas and all through the house, not one PC was working not even a mouse. I turned on the power but nothing was working. I grab the computer and start banging and jerking. I laid out three grand for this piece of junk, on January 1st the darn thing went kerplunk. When I threw it out the window it made such a clatter, my neighbor just called to see what's the matter. I turned on the TV the cable is down, my microwave oven is making weird sounds.My new VCR is as dead as a rock, not one light is blinking not even the clock. It's twenty below the peak of snow season, the furnace won't work the pipes are all freezin'. This couldn't have happened at a worse time, I think I have frostbite on my behind. I laughed for a second and thought it all funny, then a call from my bank in regards to my money. We managed your pension and savings with care, but for some odd reason your money's not there. We were Y2K ready we'd thought we'd be heroes, but regret to inform you your balance is zero. I drop the receiver to the bathroom I rush, I push down the handle the toilet won't flush. I turned on the faucet not one drop hits the sink, I head out the door to the pub for a drink. I jump in the car turn the key in the switch, it only goes click. I scream son of a (female dog). A computerized ignition has just sealed my fate, not set up for the date. I twitch like a madman this cannot be true, no car, heat, or money what the heck can I do. Shouting obscenities as I ran out of sight, Happy Y2K to all it's been one heck of a night.
