The M Night Watch

31 Dec 1999, PM

Tick Tock
At one o'clock
"Grab a tape"
As the team took stock

Tick Tock
By two o'clock
"The plan's on cue"
As services are stopped

Tick Tock
By nine o'clock
"All system's up"
As we gathered for the watch

Tick Tock
Past ten o'clock
"Food's here!"
As we ate and cheered

Tick Tock
It's twelve o'clock
"Catch me!"
The M bug mocked

1 Jan 2000, AM

Tick Tock
By one o'clock
"I think we're safe"
The SWAT analysts thought

Tick Tock
By two o'clock
"It's a wrap. Let's head home."
And thus ended the Event's log!

The above is a light-hearted account of what the computer department guys at NTU did during the crossover dates between the two millennia.
