9/11:  There's a path on my property that I used for jogging, naked in
warm weather, except for running shoes, baseball cap, and radio ear
phones.  Anyway, the news interrupted the soft-rock show and I ran
back to the house and told the old lady to turn on the tube.

JFK: I was cruising in a '58 Impala on Pulaski Hwy. when the news of
the shooting interrupted Johnny Tillotson's "Talk Back Trembling
Lips."  Death had not yet been confirmed.  Man, I had to tell someone
so I stopped in this redneck dive in White Marsh.  There were no
patrons just an old hag behind the bar.  She just stared without
responding.  "Aw ya old fart, if you don't believe me, turn on ya
radio, if ya have one."  Whereupon I left.

Buddy Holly: I was in 9th grade and moms told me when I returned home
from school.
