2008 it wasn’t that great…or was it?
2008 was certainly no forgetful year, if anything it’s been like every other year only you add an election, a few political scandals, a couple of bailouts, a recession, and a few Hollywood comebacks.
Bur first, for the second year in a row, The Moron Report.
The Moron Report:
- Miley Cyrus may or may not continue to be Hannah Montana, which is understandable, that image is just to clean for her.
- Matt Damon fears Sarah Palin, though he knew nothing about her.
- The Jonas Brothers are a big hit because…I’m still trying to figure this one out.
- Diddy-dumb-diddy-do opens his mouth showing his intelligence – stick to rapping.
- Britney Spears makes a comeback and so does lip-syncing.
Last year I wrote about how in 2008 we need to wake up, get real, and move on. We woke up in the manner that we realized the problems in our country and just in time for it to blow up in our faces. We got real by…I guess admitting there needed to be some change in how we do things, but we’re still working on that. I don’t know what to make of moving on, especially in the media during the election. You had news stories and analysts that either didn’t matter or only favored one side. So in 2009 it’s important that we continue to get real, but also to
play fair and ask the hard questions of those in higher office.
My 2008:
Favorite Movies:
- WALL-E
- Stargate Continuum
- The Dark Knight
- Prince Caspian
- Indiana Jones: Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Favorite Music:
- Third Day - Revelation
- Brad Paisley - Play
- Casting Crowns - Peace on Earth
High Point: Getting a Wii
Low Point: Stargate Atlantis cancelled.
Even in times of hardship there are still those good moments that shine through the darkness. Everyday we hear the bad and the ugly, but why so little of the good? After a year like 2008, especially after a year like 2008, it’s time we hear more about the good things going on, let's hear about the progress being made. And let's hear the fair and honest truth when it comes to things that affect our lives.
Like that song goes, come on get happy.
Goodbye 2008.
