2. where were you on september 11, 2001?
at work. P was freaking because no one really knew what was going on. my mom called me and i asked her for some information, she didn't have the tv on so she had no idea what was happening. once she found out some news she called me back. i remember how odd it was to go outside to my car and not hear any planes flying overhead, and having every radio station broadcasting the same information.

3. where were you when you heard that princess diana died?
on my way to a party with ms. b at B's house. we were waiting for ms. k to get off work to come and get us. we were drunk at the time and were unable to take our eyes off the tv. that is until we decided that we were tired of waiting on ms. k and planned on walking the several miles to B's house.

4. do you remember where you were when you heard kurt cobain had died?
i was driving home from school (college). hootie and the blowfish's "hold my hand" was playing on the radio. they announced it as soon as the song ended. at the time i heard it they just said a body was found at his house, and no one was really sure who it was at the time.
