Reflections Aught 8

(Something from the internet)

Reflections Aught 8

Imagine listening to the radio and hearing the announcer state, “Now
playing music from the 80’s (Eighties), 90s (Nineties) and today.” Fast
forward to about a year from now…… same scenario.....

“Now playing music of the 90s (Nineties),_________ties, and today.” Can
you fill in the blank?

How about using “Naughties”, “Aughties” or “Naughty Aughties”.



It’s short, sweet and happens to intimate the tone of this millennium’s
first decade. Not to mention, it rhymes and indicates the decade
containing the number zero (naught=aught=zero). From international or
national to your hometown perspectives and in all categories to include
entertainment, economics, politics, sports, theatre, food and much, much
more, I am certain you can find “naughty” events to create your very own
list. For instance…….

2008
1) Wall Street Bailout
2) Palin VP Nomination
3) NY Governor Admits Involvement in Prostitution
4) China Food & Milk Recall
5) China’s Olympians' Ages Questioned
6) Olympic Torch Relay Protests
7) Sen Edwards Admits Affair
8) Detroit Mayor Kilpatrick Scandal
9) Amy Whinehouse
10) Hillary vs Obama

Join me in spreading the word, "Naughty Aughties", Dawn of a New
Millenium, Decade of Change.
