Cantique Y2K
(Sung to the tune of O Holy Night)

Verse 1:
It's New Years eve, the night we've been awaiting.
It is the night of the dread Y-2-K.

All through the year, we have been mitigating
The dire effects we expect on this day.

The pantry's filled with tons and tons of canned ham.
With beans, creamed corn, and peanut butter too.
Down sleeping bags, and fuel for Coleman lanterns,
With batteries new, plus toilet paper too.
Awake! Let's see what Y-2-K will do!

Verse 2:
We have logged on to all the different web sites
To get the patches we need to survive.

Some for Excel, and some for Word and Quicken
Are those we'll need when our stocks take a dive.

The hard drive's jammed with special diagnostics
To help us through the coming trying time.
Handouts complete with notes from SASQAG meetings
Will help pass the time, 'til we are back on line.
Thanks Y-2-K for all the overtime.

Good Tom Gilchrist
(Sung to the tune of Good King Wenceslaus)

Verse 1:
Good Tom Gilchrist looked about on the earth this season,
Saw his lights were going out, asked what was the reason.
PC's crashing everywhere, chaos on the freeway,
Airplanes stranded on the ground, all because of Y-2-K.

Verse 2:
Took his vehicle to town, traffic was annoying.
Sure was hard to see around airbags when deploying.
His smart house has locked him out in the coldness and wet,
Does not know his face at all, thinks that he's not born just yet!

Verse 3:
Broke into his own abode, lit a roaring fire.
Market took a hit today, now he can't retire.
Y-2-K has wiped him out, left him here with nothing.
Throw that PC on the fire! Least it's good for something!!
