2005 and sure is and the years come and gone.

2005 will be my 5th year on the Internet.

15 years since the Earthquakes of San Francisco and Newcastle, near here in Sydney. October 1989 and December 1989 respectively.

18 years since the stock market crash of 1987.

38 years since the Six-Day war of 1967.

40 years since the strong earthquake of Alaska at 9.0 Richter scale.

So how old I feel now and over the fifties.

Any plans for 2006?

If you have ever experienced a quake in a built up
area the first thing you hear is a growing booming
effect as the sound waves precede the quake front. Then it
hits and the ground jerks up and down and sideways.

Optimus prime dies soon

I LMAO when I read thar. I was talking to my wife about the transformers movie when it came out and it was talking about 2005. I remember as a kid thinking, "wow 2005 is sooooooooo far off" and BAM, its here.

I was a huge original Transformer fan. Totally dont get the new ones. I go through wallyworld with my son and when we get to the Transformer section (the new one is energon). They have one of the decepticons with the name of "Optimus Prime". If I cared about it more, I would try to figure out why they hell they recycled the sames and stuff.

I thought he was an autobot.

AFAIK Optimus has always been the autobot leader in any of the shows/comics just sometimes with some changes.

The transformers universe sucks from what I hear, most of the different shows and comics basicly just ignore each others, there isn't much connection.

Hello,

where the f--- is my hovering skateboard?

Ahem.....

2015???? We're in the future?!?!?!?!?

It's 2015 that was supposed to happen! And the commentary track on the dvd was saying they were a little apprehensive to predict the future because everybody always gets it wrong!
