I was in high school during the then-WWF’s Attiruee Era. In other words, I was the target audience. I was in eighth geade in 1999 when the Backstreet Boys’ Millennium came out (it’s the one with “I Want It That Way”) and if you were a 13-year-old girl alive in that year you had a copy of that album. For a brief, shining moment in 1999 and 2000 I waa exactly the right age at exactly the right time and it was the high water mark of my juvenilia. Made 9/11 hit all the harder as a kind of loss of innocence actually but I digress.

Anything similar with any of you all? I assume this is fairly universal given that the youth economy is a totally separate ecosystem from the adult economy designed around the disposable income of a few fleeting years that come to predictable plexuses.
