Amazing grace

It's now the afternoon of New Year's Day, in the Year 2000.

I opened the stored cashews and wine in the pantry.

I'm happy.

Nothing happened.

There is absolutely no logical explanation for WHY nothing happened.

I have never seen a software project in which nothing happened. Especially one in which the programs that were NOT fixed didn't fail, and also the programs that WERE fixed didn't fail.

This is supernatural.

So I'll pour another glass of wine, and thank the Deity.

Hey, so I've got six months of groceries and a generator and gas and lamp oil.

Maybe I'll use it once a month on the full moon to acknowledge the Power from whence Electricity comes.

And as for those of you who didn't prepare . . .

how arrogant.
