That's silly, 'cause that would mean Lani's over 40.

I was minus three months or so. My parents told me everyone, but everyone, was sitting around TVs watching it.

At a Private Christian school then....we all gathered in the church with a tiny TV to watch....still remember the amazement of watching men walk on the moon!

I hear it was so riveting that planes fell out of the skies because the pilots were at home watching TV.

all true! but fortunately, all the passengers were as well

I'm sorry young folks missed it. It was the last piece of American History that was good news instead of bad.

I know, it is amazing we haven't all just slit our wrists in despair.

I already did. I've been a zombie in disguise for years now.

Only if iSm slits his for missing things that happened before he was alive. ;)

No, but before I was alive, major moments in American History were both good and bad. I'm talking MAJOR moments.

So, post 1969, the only pivotal moments in American History that come to mind are the the first resignation of any American president and the foreign terrorist attacks on American soil in September 2001.

Am I missing something? Because 40 years without any good news in American History is unfortunate, though I'm not suicidal about it.
