Hey Hey,

I guess I pale in comparison... the things that are always vivid in my mind were always little things that had no real significance. That being said... I remember that for 9/11 I was sitting in my CCNA class in high school... one of the other teachers walked in and talked quietly to my teacher (We had the TV in our classroom at the time) and they turned it on and someone started channel surfing and found the news instantly... then people started pulling it up on CNN (I believe) and other websites...

Other than that my most significant memories are so small that they are these:

A) I can vividly remember sitting on a school bus in grade 8... shy little me... with two girls in my grade... the one girl didn't have her hair in a ponytail (which was the norm) and I commented and after I went to say "it looks better in a ponytail" instead I somehow said "ponytails are stupid"

B) I can remember being at my grandmothers shortly after her brother had died and my sister kept calling asking for my grandma in stupid voices... I was fed up (I was only like 12 or 13 at the time) and the next time the phone rang and I answered it and heard a raspy, shaky voice I yelled at her into the phone... then I realized it was my grandmothers brother's widow...

C) The day I found out my parents were seperating and everything that followed that day (New Years Eve)...

I guess those seem minor compared to what everyone else remembers... but there are a few "slightly" bigger things that I remember..

The Flames winning the Cup in 1989.
Richard Petty Retiring
Dale Earnhardt's death..

Oh well... I guess we all remember things for a reason..

Peace,
