Happy anniversary Tony. I well remember that weekend! I was in college and my best friend was in town for an Oklahoma State footfall game. They cancelled the game and we spent most of the weekend watching history unfold on tv. DonM

Don... one of those moments when everyone remembers where they were ... I was working for a brokerage firm on Wall St. ... having lunch when the news came over the tv ... I was the only person in the company allowed to take vacation that week ... On the day of the wedding we had about 2 inches of rain!!! We spent the first couple of days of the honetmoon in Miami watching history unfold ... t.
Best wishes to you a Lydia, from your compadre in Rhody. Wow, 42 years. Gee, I'm not even 42 years old yet, I'm stuck at 39 Hope you're taking her to one of the many fine restaurants we have here in RI.
I was in the 8th grade in when JFK was killed in St. Bart's school in class. The nuns had the PA/radio system tuned to the live broadcast surrounding the shooting.

Way to go, guys! Annie and I aren't far behind...40 years last August.
Like I said before, I figured out it's the music business. If I had been home every night, she'd have kicked my butt to the curb 39 years ago. With three kids born in late October and November, my straight laced father-in-law observed that, "the music business must really suck in January"!
