1999 What the F Happened

So in my youth due to TV shows that I loved and believed in I had hoped that in 1999 something momentous would have happened that would change the world.

No I'm not talking about Y2K. I was hoping a giant space craft would crash land on earth and change the course of human history.

Because it would take 10 years to prepare for the alien invasion. (No I'm not talking about illegal aliens). So in 2009 (just a few short months away) the Zentradi will be arriving and we don't have the SDF-1, veritech fighters, or even a single destroid to protect us.
