Around 1981, people watched The Man Who Saw Tomorrow and got very uncomfortable with all the things that were to come in 1984. In a lecture, a very dour English professor stated that 1984 was only two years away, giving everyone in the class a sense of foreboding.
When 1984 did come, we started it off telling George Orwell jokes, and ended it listening to Duran Duran and wearing big hair. I look back on that year as a really great party.
Each year has it's own character, but you
never really see it until it is over.
never really see it until it is over.
Happy 2012 to everyone.
