I was 10 and home sick from school and my grandmother yelled up to me that President Kennedy had been killed by a sniper....
Being only 10 I had visions of some animal attacking him from a tree......I guess I wasn't too far off the mark though considering how the event took place.
Since I was so young I could only really relate to the fact that a "Daddy" had been killed, but I do credit that historical event as somehow instilling in me a love of history,world politics and current events for I was, as my parents, glued to the TV set to learn about what had happened. In retrospect it made me aware that there was a world out there.....
