Default Do you remember what you where doing 50 years ago?

It was a sunny day but cold in Ottawa. I was working at Canada Post HQ.
My Dad picked me up at work mid morning with the family car, a 1958 Chevvy. I drove him back to work and proceeded to the dentist in Hull.

On my way back, the car radio was tuned to CKOY 1310 AM when they announced the death of JFK. We spent the rest of the day at work listening on a portable radio the developing events and once at home were glued to the LARGE 21 inch black and white Hallicrafter tv.

How time have changed, none of the above even exists today except for the memories.
