Charles Drago Wrote:Almost convincing. I often wonder whether or not we remember 11/22/'63, or just read about it. I am sure Mr Drago remembers it, as do I. I mostly recall the radio broadcast over the high school intercom and the announcement about the shooting, and then "waiting" for the "death announcement", as if the result was somehow expected. Not wished for, but expected. Yes, I remember. :nosmilie: Larry StudentofAssassinationResearch

Let out of grade school early with the direction that we should "say a prayer."
But the word spread through the Veazie Street School building, and I hurried home to find my mother, recovering from major surgery, crying on the couch.

In the work I've seen by George Michael Evica, and that of Gil Jesus, we see the impossibility that Lee Oswald ordered, paid for, received, stored, practiced with, transported, used, concealed the alleged weapon
Or the pistol with the bent pin able to fire revolver and auto shells Or posed with both on the cover of Look Or was present by Tippit's car talking to the officer through the closed window Or fired the transmogrified mass at the General, leaving after splitting into two liquid plasma terminators in two escape devices Such was the superhuman Marvel super hero or DC Avenger That he could be on the stair but invisible to the girls Make it to the patrol car through a space-time wormhole Cause a bullet to penetrate a decuperational woody obstruction and navigate dronelike through a baker's half-dozen wounds inviolate Shoot the president in the throat from the front from the back Juggle three wallets Appear with Ferrie, Shaw, Banister without their knowledge Utilize 544 Camp Street without being seen by its occupants Cause Minox cameras to disappear and evidence to reappear in the Paine Dr. Who Phone Kiosk Manipulate his file and persona vis a vis security stops and multiple holographic likenesses Be observed in more places than the Scarlet Pimpernell Speak for two days without leaving a transcribed or taped word from interrogation And who disguised as Pat C.

Happened to be home from grade school. My Pop called home on his lunch hour with news. I thought he was joking for a fraction of a second before I handed the phone to my Mom.
The TV was switched on and the unending weekend started. The initial shock was much more than the oft compared "Challenger" mishap to me. A more profound loss. Jim

Mr. Johnson's English class was derailed from the normal banter by the voice of Ralph Clevenger former basketball coach now principal.
The aluminum cake pan intercom high on the block wall over the chalk board came alive with his gravelly voice. "The president has been shot. Stand by for more information." We were a-buzz, some of us; some were silent with our thoughts. I don't recall saying anything, only staring at the intercom--it never spoke. "We have just received news the president has died. The buses will be at the entrance to take you home for the weekend." And so we poured into the corridors, the four thousand of us chattering and clattering with friends and lockers, descending to the curb lined with buses. Home for the television, staring and watching, the replays of speculation, the first glimpse of 24-hour news filling every moment with meaningless comments. Finally Sunday and we'd have a look--BANG In retrospect, and with the aid of the many, many replays, it was Honk, Honk, BANG The funeral with the riderless horse--it was so nervous Let us continue, Johnson would lie No, it was a shadowy instruction that we would not continue Nothing he did would continue, but we couldn't know that then Kierkegaard was driving; Bob Dylan saying Don't Look Back There will be time enough for that after ten years When it was time to take out the last of the terra cotta warriors Kabukied up as false sponsors [ATTACH=CONFIG]4246[/ATTACH]

The first shock was the deepest. Even the wait to know what happened went on a long time to me, but the news was expected by then.
I recall being a Perry Mason 'educated' kid and asking why LHO didn't have a lawyer on Saturday. No one could answer that except to say he would get one before long. That sounded right to me. Sunday's murder was more of a surprise than a shock. The shock came later when I could think of implications. A "friend" of the DPD cops did this?! No trial? :jawdrop: The stink of something rotten in the beltway did begin that Sunday for me.

We lived near Oxon Hill Maryland, 15 minutes from the White House. My dad no longer worked there after Eisenhower, but we were very close by for other reasons. I was
attending St. Columba Catholic School and was in first grade at the time. My teacher, Sister Mary Anne Xavier, a behemoth of a woman, who had never showed any emotion to my knowledge was teaching something to us. The principal came to the door and opened it. She was white as a ghost--not normally--just then. She called the teacher over and whispered something in her ear at which time our teacher's knees nearly buckled. A group of us were herded off to an underground shelter very quickly with the sounds of the rosary being recited by the nuns who wore the oversized beads like a rope around their waists. We prayed for a time until we were picked up by parents or by military personnel. The phone system was out. By the time my mother came to get me and my sister, she was quite anxious because she could not reach the school by phone and was unsure of where we were being taken. Washington D.C. was the worst city in the world that weekend with the possible exception of Dallas. It was the most solemn, depressing, gloomy, place I have ever seen to this day. Grown men and women crying--sometimes sobbing--uncontrollably in the streets. There was a look in everyone's eyes that, now as an adult, I recognize as similar to the look in the eyes of those who have been through great trauma, such as, survivors of Treblinka, Bergen-Belsen, or Auschwitz. Utter despair. We walked around JFK's flag draped casket in the Capitol and attended the funeral on Monday. It's like it was just yesterday ... still.
