    I feel I should know this since I’m a huge LotR fan… I’m going with 2005. (crosses fingers)

    Sometime in the 1990s. I love Lord of the Rings and Reggie White played for the Green Bay Packers, my home team. I remember him well and when he died, a tragic loss to football. I don’t know the specific year for either.

      It was actually slightly later than you think 🙂

    I know this one! I was LOST until the very last clue! How appropriate!
    Oddly enough, I do remember in 2004, yeah? … when the show Friends ended, I felt “friendless” for the first time in my life. It was more than just the finale of a sitcom; it felt like something in my world went dark. I didn’t have a Central Perk. I didn’t have a Monica to clean the counters or a Phoebe to play the guitar. And for the first time, I felt the ache of emotional loneliness … like my circle had disappeared. 👻

      Yeah you’re absolutely correct! 🙂

      I’m sorry you felt that way , but as with everything stages in life pass and we learn and grow from them 🙂 I bet you enjoyed the reunion interview thing though right ? 😉

        Yes 🙌🏻! To having the correct answer – and I have not watched the reunion interview, life changed dramatically that year for me … I have not watched much TV since – and I kinda like it 🫶.
        I love your blog! Thank you 🙏

        Stages in life coming to an end in 2004 for sure. Great way to put it. I spent my 20’s with those ‘Friends.”

      Just so you know, my original guess was correct but I am usually 4 years off one way or the other so I second guessed myself. Doh.

    Yet another poorly-informed guess–2006? (At least Friends ended, whatever year it was!)

      Reading the other comments now, I see that I’m in the minority in not liking Friends (and that I was two years off). But we were living in Manhattan at the time, and that was definitely good enough for me. 🙂

      And if I saw ONE more magazine/tabloid cover with a headline about Jennifer Aniston’s love-life or hair, I may have completely lost it.

    2004??!! I remember the song “All these Things” and I was obsessed with The Killers. I was at uni and this song became like an anthem.

          Yeah I dont know why they are not talked about more. Maybe it’s because MR Brightside was so popular that it just annoyed people?

    This is the year Tony Hawk Underground came out. Franz Ferdinand and the Dropkick Murphy’s were on the playlist! Banquet is a great song, I can’t remember much else from Bloc Party though.
    I must’ve been 12 or 13 so either 2004 or 2005? It’s hard to say because I played THUG for years after it came out

    Nice, my memory of Tony Hawk timelines is somewhat accurate 😃 great games indeed though I really only played pro skater 3 and underground 1-2. I liked underground 1 better than the second. I tried playing a newer one but could never get the disc to work on my console 😕
