I was at work when the building PA announced the news....everything went silent for about a minute as the news sunk in then back to work

The only conspiracy theory I still buy into.
Pardon me but my karma just ran over your dogma.

I was watching TV ...  Thinking about it now, it almost seems as though you saw someone getting assasinated everytime you turned on your TV back then... and most of the stuff was live then.

I was only 4 or so, I don't remember much about the actual day, but do remember seeing it on TV, asking my mother what happened... Probably playing with Tonka toys or some sort of toy car, on the floor, in front of the TV....

Life isn't Father Knows Best anymore, it's a kick in the face on a saturday night with a steel toed grip kodiak work boot and a trip to the hospital all bloodied and bashed.....for reconstructive surgery. But, what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger, right?

I'm too young to remember JFK's killing.  Seemed like a gigantic 9/11-size deal based on what I've read.


Some people have argued that the 8mm footage of the shooting was altered to obscure what happened.  I'm inclined to agree.  IMHO we've probably never seen unaltered footage of the shooting.
