Nope, I was 12. Probably playing outside. Although I do remember when Lennon was killed, and when Reagan and the Pope were shot, which were all shortly later.

 He just shrugged his shoulders and said "Good thing it twern't Little Richard"...

Kind of sad that his passing to drugs really didn't change much in how celebrities can acquire drugs or drug use in general.
Sad that some people can delude themselves to think they are invinceable. How much do we play into that belief by excuseing inapproriate behavior in celebrities. |

I was almost 8 months old...so I'm thinking I was either:
a) sleeping b) eating c) pooping But then, that's just a guess... |

I was 18 and we spent the day gettin drunk and jammin to Jailhouse Rock, and Houndog and all his rockin songs
then again when I was 18 EVERYTHING was a excuse to get drunk |

Was working in a corner store and the first thing i saw at 5 am bringing the papers in was the news on the first page, for the rest of the day I heard so many different comments as people coming in saw the front page.
