To 2008

2007:

Barry Bonds gets an asterisk next to his HR record

The NFL has two players murdered

The Patriots get caught cheating, but are allowed to continue to play, and wind up 16-0 (another asterisk)

Weakest film year I can remember -- no idea what will win Best Picture (can't wait for that press conference)

So, as I move away from the nascent film career, and focus on... hmm, retail? Fast food management? Sanitation? The opportunities are boundless for a 40-something who isn't a programmer, accountant, medical or legal professional. Is TSA still hiring?

Well, at least the political junkie gets to follow the election race.

You want fries with that?
