In 1992, 18 years ago
Posted by tom | Sep 3, 2010In fall 1992, Theresa and I entered Grove City College, after graduating Donegal High School in the spring. Can you remember back eighteen years ago, the year most first year students were born? I took a look at wikipedia to remind myself of ...
- Super Bowl XXVI: The Washington Redskins defeat the Buffalo Bills 37–24.
- Federal Republic of Yugoslavia founded
- Jay Leno becomes the new host of NBC's Tonight Show, following the retirement of Johnny Carson. Comment: Carson was so much better than Leno. Do I belong to a previous generation?
- Václav Havel resigns as president of Czechoslovakia. Question: Have you read Jim Sire's book on Havel?
- Lots of shifts in alignment in the former USSR.
- Brett Favre makes his first start for the Green Bay Packers. Question: Is he still playing this fall?
- Pittsburgh International Airport's new facility opens in Findlay Township, near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. ... Tom and Theresa "enjoyed" this facility a few too many times ;-)
- Prince Charles and Princess Diana publicly announce their separation. Note: watching their 1981 marriage on TV remains one of my sharpest childhood memories.
What would you add to the list?
