Week in Review: Hello 2010

Madison gets set to move into another decade.

So is it a new decade, or isn't it? We at Madison Patch are a little unsure ourselves. Logic says that a decade is 10 years, and if you count from one to 10, then this is actually the LAST year of the decade.

However, logic also says that someone would say something that happened in 1990 happened in the 9os, not the 80s.

So, the point seems to be that logic doesn't work in this case, and we here at Madison Patch wish you a happy new year no matter how you look at it.
