Flashback ~ The Year 2005~

Can it be that I have already gone through 37 years of Flashbacks? Time went by too fast!!!!! Hmmmm, what do I do now that I have almost reached the end...........I will have to think about it, but I am sure that I will come up with something entertaining!

~Flashback 2005~

George W. Bush is officially sworn in for his second term as president (Jan. 20).

Hurricane Katrina wreaks catastrophic damage on the Gulf coast; more than 1,000 die and millions are left homeless. Americans are shaken not simply by the magnitude of the disaster but by how ill-prepared all levels of government are in its aftermath. (Aug. 25-30). See also Hurricane Katrina Timeline.

Science fiction and fantasy dominated the box office, with Star Wars: Episode III- Revenge of the Sith; The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe; Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire; and The War of the Worlds taking the top four spots on the list of highest-grossing films. Sith took in more than $380 million.

Can just 5 years ago really be considered a "flashback"? LOL

I missed a lot of the earlier years, I will have to go back sometime and check them all out.
