Lyrics:
On the first day of Y2K, my server said to me:
It's January, 1970.
On the second day of Y2K, my server said to me:
/var is full, and it's January, 1970.
On the third day of Y2K, my server said to me:
stale file handle, /var is full, and it's January, 1970.
On the fourth day of Y2K, my server said to me:
hme is down, stale file handle, /var is full, and it's January, 1970.
On the fifth day of Y2K, my server said to me:
no route to host... hme is down, stale file handle, /var is full, and it's January, 1970.
On the sixth day of Y2K, my server said to me:
bad magic number, no route to host... hme is down, stale file handle, /var is full, and it's January, 1970.
On the seventh day of Y2K, my server said to me:
can't open socket, bad magic number, no route to host... hme is down, stale file handle, /var is full, and it's January, 1970.
On the eighth day of Y2K, my server said to me:
panic! double panic!, can't open socket, bad magic number, no route to host... hme is down, stale file handle, /var is full, and it's January, 1970.
On the ninth day of Y2K, my server said to me:

On the A day of Y2K, my server said to me:

On the B day of Y2K, my server said to me:
enter system password, out of ttys, can't fork process, panic! double panic!, can't open socket, bad magic number, no route to host... hme is down, stale file handle, /var is full, and it's January, 1970.
On the C day of Y2K, my server said to me:

enter system password, out of ttys, can't fork process, panic! double panic!, can't open socket, bad magic number, no route to host... hme is down, stale file handle, /var is full, and it's January, 1970.

I heard about this performance a long while ago from my friend at MIT, after I told him of the song we sang at CMU, "Find the Longest Path." This song is fantastic, even now almost 10 years later. Good job to sing; sing; halt for coming up with such a masterpiece of geekdom. 3
