Speaking of which...

...I found some journals that documented the current events of specific years, among those the year I am born; 1975.

All through out it was notable that everything happens in cycles. Wars, politics, famines, natural disasters, sport achievements etc. The headlines more or less read the same as today...

Anyway, to prove my point here are four examples that very much reflect what is in the news today, even though I hate to say it, some time has passed.

Once again I apologize to non swedish readers.

Groundhog day, the US economy has
been in bad shape before

Arafat was hopeful in '75, but hardly any
progress worth mentioning has been made

Natural disasters seem to quite consistently
hit those countries that have the toughest
time to deal with them

Ok, Malmö lost big today to Häcken, but I would
not be surprised if they are in the top at the end
of the season. AIK may very well be runner up.
And the rest of the teams that are in Allsvenskan
might just end up in the same positions as in '75.
Notable is that Brynäs and Sirius were in Allsvenskan
in '75, but evidently did not perform very well.
Brynäs doing much better in hockey in 2012.
