In light of the upcoming 40th anniversary of the death of JFK I was just wondering how many Pet Talkers remember him and also remember what they were doing when they heard the news. I know this will be a thread of *showing our age* as many of you were probably not even alive.

I was a senior in high school in the last period of the day. Class was just starting and an announcement came over the PA system. When I tell you that you could hear a pin drop I am not exaggerating. After class there was just sobbing in the hallways and not the usual boisterous noise that high school kids are known for at the end of the day. I remember being totally numb and scared at the same time.

How about you? If you were alive at the time how about posting where you were and your first thoughts.
