Me

A)I had just gotten home from working a late night shift when my mother called to tell me a plane had hit the world trade center. I turned CNN on just in time to see the second plane hit, live.

B)Was living in Reno but don't recall what I was doing at the time.

C)I was at a party when someone came in and said "they're tearing down the Berlin Wall", so we turned on the TV to see if it was true and sure enough, it was.

D)I was a senior in high school working as a short order cook and heard it on the radio. The manager announced it to the restraunt, which broke out in cheering and applause.

E) I was in my bedroom at my parents house listening to music when they stopped in mid song to tell us Elvis had just died.

F)I was 6 years old and it's (barely) one of my very first memories.

G)I was nine months old so I have no memory of it at all.

H)Years before I was born, as I bet is the case with just about everyone else on this board. I do remember my mother (who was 12 at the time) telling me about it.
