I was four years old, and living in TX. Probably watching Romper Room, actually... or the local version thereof.

I was in my womb....

I would have to imagine that your mother would debate this point. :P

It's a 'shared existence' (as much her's as her mother's).

Back to the roll call... When I heard JFK was killed, I crapped my pants. (I was only 10 weeks old!)

This was before my parents got married, so I was no where around.

Okay, we were Cubs, not Mouseketeers— but one or two guys definitely had the ears for it!

This is certainly true -- my post was meant in a goofing way.
As for me at the time of the roll call: I was just an accident waiting to happen (born in 1968)... conceived in "The summer of love".

I spent most of it paddling around in a nice warm pool til someone jerked me out and dried me off.

[truckinbutch]

Started into a brand new Eisenhour consolidated school the first year of integration in our rural county . Combined all the 2 and 3 room schools into 1 covering grades 1 thru 8 with no regard for color or religion .....
The teachers met every morning bus and confisticated every knife and pistol from us ......
They gave them back at the end of the day before we boarded the evening busses because they knew we might need them on our way home .
Our bus drivers were nervous seeming individuals that consumed large quantities of alcohol both off duty and on .

We came back to WV in the spring of '56 in the new Pike's Peak Special Chev Daddy bought in Denver . Hotted up 265 / 3 spd overdrive manual 2 door . It kicked butt on all the local boys back here with their other brands .
No brand loyalty here . That particular Chev simply ran like the proverbial striped a$$ed ape and Daddy could DRIVE !

 

[Real de Tayopa Tropical Tramp]

Sigh, had just returned from a 6 month exploration trip into the jungles of Yucatan & Quintan Roo looking for Mayan ruins.

No "twinkle" at that time, my partner wasn't my idea of a sex object, dirty, unwashed, full of tick and skeeter bites, kinda skinny from our diet, etc, NOW if Kelly, Gypsy, or one of you lovely TN gals had been there-----. sigh,

On the Quintan Roo side Lovey full tropical moon, soft warm breeze, white sandy beaches with warm, crystal clear, gentle surf and no-one within many, many miles . What a waste. hehehh

Feel free to borrow mine anytime, Don Jose. It's never failed yet: just turn it on, and it instantly transports back in time to the moment when it was still turned off!

I was one. My mother said I was always camped out in the playpen by the TV. The first thing I learned to say was "M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E".
