I have to say this always got me in school was how did the guy shooting the gun not his Mrs JFK. I mean she was sitting right next to him.

I find Jackie O to be the most interesting of our modern goddesses...it freaks me out how she immediately attendss to her husband and then the second shot she climbs on the back of the limo...it is really mind blowing between the hunched leaning President and she touches him...then the blast we see...then her climbing on the car and back again. It gives me chills.

I was a young mother sitting on the sofa watching the motorcade and the shooting of a president I loved. It was as shocking as watching the twin towers come down. And heartbreaking. It was a bad omen for me and my boy too. Jacki O is the highest example of "class." I have tears in my eyes thinking back about this - I don't think it was every properly resolved either.

Gardenia,
I was very impressed with the 6th Floor Museum yesterday. It was a powerful experience to walk the area and look up at the window, the strteet. I have some photos and I'm in the hotel office using the computer right now in San Antonio trying to download my pics...should have them up in a few minutes. I was pretty choked up a couple of times.

I think your description of seeing this tragedy on tv is aan amazing one Gardenia, I think a lot of people found it to be the worst omen as well as you.

San Antonio is gorgeous too!
