As far as politics go, the last one named a few good ones. You could also include the aftermath of the tsunamis that happened a year ago.
No one could shut up about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie hooking up this year, or Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey breaking up. Also, there were the bombings in London and the death of the Pope. Try googling "scientific discoveries in 2005" as well or "2005 events." MSN.com has a lot of stuff about 2005 on their main pages as well.
