I love that song " Ninteen Something"   I grew up in the 70 s and 80 s myself so I know what he s singing about.  My daughter was asking all kinds of questions listening to the song and I got me to thinking about what we will refer to this decade as?  I m pretty tired right now and can t even hazard to guess but I m sure some of my fine camping friends here will come up with some possibilities.[]

 A few quickly come to mind:
                        -  September 11, 2001
                        -  The space shuttle Columbia disaster
                        -  Notre Dame mnot playing for the National Championship (yet!)

 ... saying a quick prayer that this decade is remembered for those singular events, and not that they were the first in a series of similar tragedies.
 
 My guess: the " double oh s"  (double aught s?)
