This year marks the end of a decade. Not the ’00s but the ’80s. It was nearly 20 years ago that the ’80s ended (AND WHEN I GRADUATED HIGH SCHOOL!) That’s right, ENDED. Not began. The ’80s are officially old. Our kids see that decade as we saw our parents’ decade, the ’60s. The ’80s are now our ’60s. Live Aid, Flock of Seagulls, shoulder pads, and “Footloose” are all now a part of our collective geezer fairytale.
