Some days interesting topics come across my e-mail inbox at work. Today, somebody asked whether we had enough coverage of natural disasters of the 1980s in one of our planned online history products. To answer that question without further ado, I present my nominees for the Top Five Disasters of the 1980s:
5) This hairstyle on the lead singer of Flock of Seagulls.
4) The movie
Heaven’s Gate (1980).
3) Ozzy Osbourne’s liver, years 1980-89 inclusive.
2) David Lee Roth leaves Van Halen, replaced by Sammy Hagar, 1985.
1) The Columbia University football team’s 44-game losing streak, 1983 to 1988.
Oh, John, you are too funny.
