10 ways to Celebrate 10 Years since the end of “Friends”
What were YOU doing 10 years ago today? It was May 6th, 2004, when almost the entire country was abuzz with anticipation of what would happen as it all ended, planning what we'd bring to our goodbye parties for Ross, Rachel, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe. It's weird how some moments in life you remember almost perfectly. And I do for this. I remember looking for a random apartment of a friend of a friend, and then having to leave to go get something (although I forget what.) And while I don't remember every detail of that final episode, I do remember being mostly satisfied with the ending, unlike LOST, Seinfeld...
Of course, we're not the only one's reminiscing. So we'll save you some time, and give you the 10 best sites to feed all that "10 years since Friends" need today! (We've skipped the obligatory "10 best episodes" cause really, weren't they all great?)
