Think back to 1998... Remember it was..
a lyin', cheatin', cigar chompin' good time! It was a year of Monicagate and father's
little helper Viagra. Sex and the City made getting some priority number one...and everybody but everybody was getting
jiggy wit it.
The dude abides. The Big Lebowski made the bowling team cool again. Big boys McGwire and Sosa
battled it out to break the home run record. The Backstreet Boys became boy band du jour while Jessie "the Body" Ventura shifted
into "the brain" and became a governor.
There was Something About Mary that made an art out of idiocy. There
was Martha Stewart who made something out of anything. And who can forget the Jerry Springer Show. It was all "too hot for
TV," baby. Even the Teletubbies. Did you care if Tinky Winky was gay???? If that wasn't enough, the National Security Agency
banned the toy Furby from its offices citing a national security threat. Yeah, back then there was nothing big to fear except
asteroids!
Armageddon arrived, allowing Bruce Willis and his rag tag team of oil drillers to save the earth.
Did you cry? If not, you did when cute college stalker Felicity cut off her hair. Maybe you were "Torn" about whether you
liked Natalie Imbruglia because she was hot, or because she was hot.
Soccer moms in SUVs were the big force to be
reckoned with, Jump Jive and wail swing made a comeback, Dr. Fraiser Crane kept us sane, and in the words of Master P.
Make
`em say uhhh! |
