While I was packing for our recent move, I found the old Playboy Interview magazine which had come out that week; the People Magazine Tribute Issue, and several newspaper accounts I'd saved. My friend and I were in such shock, we left work for the day, drove out to the ranch with a bottle of something and drank the afternoon and half the night away, singing and grieving, not only for him, but for another loss of our generation as a whole. Even though we lived thousands of miles apart after that, she and I always telephoned one another on this day, as we will do, today. Imagine..... kat |

Sure, he wasn't president or anything, but my grandfather wasn't president either, and his death affects me a lot more than JFK's. Alex |
