Couple of moments are burned in my brain like it happend a minute
ago...
I was serving detention with only Miss Douglas and myself in the 4rth
grade classroom when I learned JFK was dead. I was doodling on an
Indian chief tablet.
Ten years ago today, I was picking Wealthy apples with my honey.
Second tree from the end of row 225. We were talking about the bad
accident in New York when we learned the second plane hit. My picking
bag was half full and I was reaching up for a couple more apples. My
honey was walking back toward the tractor.
I do also remember the first step on the moon. But not in the same
vivid like it just happend a second ago detail. of course, we were all
a bit more prepared for this.

I was getting ready to go down to LA to do a machine installation, had
just gotten out of the shower and was sitting on the end of the bed
putting on my pants..and looked up to see the 2nd airliner hit.....
I didnt make it to LA until very late that day.
I was having recess and holding hands with Mary Sue Polkalavich when
JKF got nailed and it was reported over the pa system of that Catholic
school in Hillman Michigan. Sunny day, cold wind blowing..I was wearing
a kids pea coat.....remember looking down at it as I pondered what was
going on.

"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry
capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency.
It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an
Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense
and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have
such a man for their? president.. Blaming the prince of the
fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of
fools that made him their prince".
