Time was a little, um, weird in 2020. January feels like eons ago. And more than in almost any other year, it feels like stories that were major topics of conversation one day just poof! evaporated the next.
To offer you a trip down memory lane, we searched back in our archives (sometimes not that far back!) to resurface stories from this year that felt like they must have happened long before 2020 or, maybe, you forgot they even happened at all.
