Well, at work, thet only problem we had was the rubber date stamp didn't
have the year 2000 on it.  

At home my computer wouldn't boot, cause the bios thought it had the
wrong CPU in it.  After I corrected that, I couldn't get it to play a CD
because there was no volume control.  Try as I might I couldn't get the
volume control to work.  I finally used TweakUI and reset the the
important files and rebooted.  Now I had a volume control tat would run,
but still no sound from the CD player nor the burner, even though the SB
Live Demo programs worked.   Then it dawned on me to go in the the
volume control properties.  THe CD audio and the Line in were both
muted.


so, how the heck did all that happen?

Nearly 12 hours after 'the event' and everything's fine down under.
Neat little show they put on, on the Thames.

I drank to the point of oblivion and enjoyed it. Only because I wanted to
forget the crappy year that 99 was for me. 2000 is already looking better
and I'm sure it will be for everyone.

Happy new year people! May the new year bring you all that you deserve and
desire.

Adios,
LarZ

The only Y2K "problem" I've seen on the net was the verisign certificate
expiration for Jan 1, 2000 - that older browsers didn't handle
properly.  I got caught out on this Mac LC3 at mums (netscape 3) - when
the certificate expires, it just stops, and doesn't get you a new one, you
have to manually delete the certificate and apply for a new one.  Nothing
too serious, but it stumped every non-computer literate person in this
house apart from me... :) (of course, I had just earlier read the bugtraq
post about it telling how to fix it as well).

 those candles (unless I do a few more Wiccan rituals :)  Better safe than
 sorry was my motto.

Donate them to a church or the homeless.  They're always in need...

I did a New Years Party last night at a restaurant in Los Angeles using
MiniDiscs. While a huge crowd failed to materialize for whatever reason
(people being afraid of going out New Years Eve 1999/New Years Morning
2000) the people who were there danced and I was paid handsomely. It was
a bit different as I had to buy cables at Sam Ash to run their house
mixer and JBL speakers instead of my own sound equipment. Luckily, all
that worked.

It is indeed the end of the world! But there are some things you can do
to make the end of the world a fun experience! Who says total
annhiliation has to be dull? Of course, be sure to dress appropriately
and memorize long winded, meandering speeches to the God of your choice.
(Note: Atheists can simply substitute God of their choice for Idol of
their choice.) In addition, here are a few helpful hints to make the
coming of Armageddon a totally fun experience:

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTS

Your local Phone Company would like to remind you to repeatedly and
often pick up the phone at exactly Midnight New Years Eve to check for a
dial tone. Your local officials would like to remind you nothing says
New Years Celebration like the joyous sound of guns being fired into the
air! Persons with Uzis and automatic submachine guns are especially
encouraged to discharge automatic gunfire to welcome the New Millemium!
Those lucky Americans fortunate enough to own anti aircraft artillery
are also encouraged to welcome the Millenium with a bang! And for Gods
sake, don't let the start of another Millenium pass you by without
starting a few neighborhood riots! Remember, nothing puts the fun in
Millenium like a little well planned looting!


Unfortunately, I myself was unable to secure any anti aircraft
artillery, TNT or other Armageddon type party favors despite my
connections at the DAT Store, so I myself will be celebrating New Years
Eve in a much more controlled, but equally fun environment.

I will be spinning my collection of 500 or so MiniDiscs at Farfalla at
143 North La Brea in Hollywood. Please stop by and say hi-but leave the
automatic weapons at home, please. It's just possible we can start the
next thousand years without a hitch. But memorize those meanderig
speeches, just in case.

Best in 2000
Rodney
