    What major historical events do you remember?

    Hi-ho and hello.

    Well let’s see…🤔, I remember lots but a little due to being a reader growing up. I’d say I remember the chaos in Mogadishu, but that was an uncle young recalling his memory and me either vicariously recalling the same due to an idolizing of my elders. Hell, what kid didn’t want to be like their uncles and parents?

    But I can recall the Lewinsky shit show that hit the White House, and of course I remember Columbine. One certainly supercedes importance due to the lives lost and the face of the American school that changed forever after. I remember the Oklahoma bombing too. Jesus! Then comes 9/11 and that was something else. I remember the radio being on at school, the teacher hushing us. The audacity in the adults eyes. The hushing and shushing that happened while they all questioned the realities that were panning out in real time over the radio and the TV. Ohhh I remember the TV. I remember thinking it couldn’t be real and then I saw the first body fall. The rest is history. Fuck. This sucks recalling these things. But it’s life, right?

    I’d wish historical events had some glimmers of hope in recalling what I can but this is it without taking to the internet.

    C’est La Vie

    Good night and good morning, good morning and good night. I thank you for the support shown. And apologize for giving up for as long as I have I seemed to have last traction and fell out of the groove lately.

    May your day be as good as it can get and the night be brighter than the night before.
