Honest answer: it's like my earliest memory ... well, I remember things from before then, but nothing stands out like that. Of course at the time it didn't mean anything to me, but the stress was felt by everyone and it's engrained in my memory.

 

Honest question: were you just curious, or are you being antagonistic and trying to say that I shouldn't have posted that since I don't remember it the way you do?

 

And by the way ... you may be old and remember ... well, everything ... but I was four years old at the time. Of course I remember it. I can remember Y2K. So there.

It was an honest question.

 

I was trying to put myself into a similar situation.  I don't remember JFK's assassination, for example, and I was a similar age.

 

And I'm quite in favor of all Americans, young, old and in between, remembering history.

WHAT??!! Chief doesn't remember JFK's assassination?! Were you asleep? You must have been at least 92 then. ;)

 

Somehow I feel like I shouldn't post that ... as if it's somewhat disrespectful to switch moods suddenly. Maybe? Will you forgive me?

Bark... Do you have all of these saved somewhere. 

 

I really think the Admins should consider a Bark Art Section on TD. 

 

I also think the Twins should post these things in the locker room. The Players have to be getting a kick out of them.

If you were four, it seems like a fair question.

 

I'm not sure I remember what happened when I was 44. :)

I remember that day with great clarity. I also remember JFK's funeral procession, from when I was six.

 

Edit - ha, age playing tricks.

This is the best idea I've heard in a very long time.

They are all saved on my computer - no worries. :)

That's explainable because the older you grow, the less you remember. At least that's the case in my family ... I'm doomed when it comes to Alzheimer's ... especially with my bad eating/sleeping habits. Well, actually I consider my sleeping habits to be better than some (if not most), but when it comes to eating ... I'll admit I'm not the person you want to model yourself after. My family accuses me of being anorexic, but I'm not, really. I just forget to eat. Though ... that's probably a common anorexic excuse, so I shouldn't even try to convince you. My sisters are constantly saying, "Always, you're not fat." I know I'm not fat. I don't need to be told that ... but they think I'm anorexic and probably googled the best things to say to anorexic people. It gets a little old. :)

 

But the favorite is, "You don't want to end up like Terri Shiavo, do you?"

 

Hmm ... next time I think I'll respond that no, I don't ... can you please take care of me when I go into a coma?

 

Their expressions will be truly priceless.

Chief was mixing up his Presidents-- he meant to say he was of a similar age when Lincoln went to the Ford Theater.
