What the Oughts wrought

The Oughts brought us the iPod (2001),

ipod

and YouTube (2005),

Hard to believe there was life before YouTube. The Oughts wrought the Wii (2006), the domination of cell phones over landlines, the rise of the GPS . . . and Octomom.

Just. Plain. Wrong.

Just. Plain. Wrong.

While we’re on the topic of fertility, the Oughts wrought Duggars #12-19 (Jason through Josie).

The Oughts wrought 9/11, Chimpie and WMD, Darth Cheney and his shotgun, meltdowns and bailouts, Katrina and Gitmo.

And the Oughts did not wrought blogging, since Open Diary launched in ’98, Live Journal in ’99, and blogger.com in ’99. But the Oughts did wrought this blog, which turns five in March 2010.

I know I’m forgetting a few million other things the Oughts wrought.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
