Obscure PODS in the last 20 years

OK here's a challange- come up with a really obscure possible POD that occured in the past 20 years but may have a significant effect on history: A diffrent president in a Latin American Country? An assasination that could have not occured? You can even add your own birth to the mix if you think your important!:)

Just make sure its in realms of reality and interesting! good luck!
 
Well, I wasn't born in the last 20 years, so that one is out ;)

Anyhow, I think the PoD I used for my TL is pretty damn obscure (in OTL the helicopter carrying the singer Katherine Jenkins to a Christmas concert for the troops came under attack in Southern Iraq, but was undamaged, so WI it was shot down).
 
I'm planning a TL whose original PoD is the filming of a Zatanna movie. It will change both Hollywood and politics, including decreasing the Tea Party, removing Palin before she makes the national scene, keeping Clinton and Biden in the Senate, having a different female Republican as SC governor, keeping Heath Ledger alive, and changing the lineup of the Disney Channel.
 
George W. Bush

On both June 29, 2002 and July 21, 2007, Bush underwent a colonoscopy. If complications were to arise, either time, he could have died and Cheney would be President.

Died? From a colonoscopy? !? :confused: complications happen .35% of the time, and by complication, they mean something that requires treatment, not anything serious!

Hes probably more likely to die of a cold.

I read that POd and it was well written....... odd, bonkers and unlikely but Awsome!
