I remember exactly where I was and who I was with when I heard this on the radio in my car. I was only a few miles away in the city and tried to drive over but all the streets were at a standstill. People everywhere were crying on the street.

I also recall the events and was a little further from the action than was JRocco. Folks were crying everywhere.

The first Beatle song I put on after his death .

After all these years my wife still thinks I'm sexy. Every time I walk by she says "What An Ass"
