Top Ten Signs You're Too Late for Y2K

[Guest guest]

1 Your local Costco or Sam's Club posts a per-customer limit on canned goods.

 

2 Your local bank adds a 1% surcharge to all cash withdrawals.

 

3 The trail mix bins at your local grocery store are suddenly wiped out.

 

4 Your neighbor, who laughed at you six months ago, wants to know if you have

any spare ammo ('cause the gun store is sold out.)

 

5 You go to your sister's house to tell her the big news about the Y2K threat

only to find out she's already built a concrete bunker and stocked it with two

years of food from Walton Feed.

 

6 Your employer pays you in cash and asks you to work over the New Year

holiday.

 

7 You notice that prices of pre-1980 4WD trucks have doubled, and you're still

driving a computer-run 1990's European sports car that takes three weeks to

get parts.

 

8 You go to your bank to buy a couple gold coins and get laughed out of the

lobby because they've been sold out for months.

 

9 Your neighbor, who was a programmer for a major telephone company, quit his

job and moved to a ranch in Oklahoma. When he left, he said, "Goodbye" like he

really meant it!

 

10 You call up your broker to sell some stocks so you can buy supplies... but

you get a constant busy signal. Oops.
