My parents are very religious, they are born again, Bible thumping Pentecost. They already have a long list of why I'm going to hell if I don't repent, the erotica would just be another piece of kindling.No, I don't imagine so! She was born on an air force base in the Philippines, wasn't in the states til four or five years after that, and spent most of her life in the south. We didn't live northbound until I was ten or so. She was a saucy lady though, she'd probably have loved you hahahaha!
I don't doubt she'd have loved that I'm an erotica writer, she always wanted to be a writer herself.

I think about now, and if it were Biden, or Trump, or really any major figure, the internet would be full of people cackling and happy someone was killed, and of course immediately blaming the opposite party.
We have devolved to the point I see no hope in this world not just for my grandchildren, but even the later parts of my daughter's lives. Lucky us, living to see this world burn.
I was 16 and on the toilet having a crap, at about 7pm (uk). My mum shouted from outside that Kennedy had been shot. I replied “don’t be silly”. I stayed glued to the TV the whole weekend and saw Oswald get shot.So, trying to find out who the old fogies are! (raises hand)
When I came home for lunch from second grade.
Didn't Dr. Who premier that day?I was 16 and on the toilet having a crap, at about 7pm (uk). My mum shouted from outside that Kennedy had been shot. I replied “don’t be silly”. I stayed glued to the TV the whole weekend and saw Oswald get shot.
Yes.Didn't Dr. Who premier that day?

21st century kid: "What the fuck is busing?"This was before busing
Why stop there? Do the whole Ring cycle, and make everyone sit there quietly until it's done.I've instructed my eldest daughter that this music must be played at my funeral. Of course, I won't know if she'll comply, but I hope she will.
I thought the first Doctor Who episode was delayed, then broadcast on the day the Kennedy coverage ended - that is, the return to normal broadcasting.Yes.
My dad (and millions of other Brits) found out because they delayed the first episode of Doctor Who by eight seconds, with the newsflash.
Growing up in Western Europe in the 1980s, the idea of WWIII was everywhere, nuclear or otherwise. I'd cycle home from school with jet fighters practising dogfighting at ground level right above my head. Remember the big military exercises of the mid-1980s, when all of NATO sent troops to Germany in a show of force? Almost every year, me and my friends would watch the armies go through our town for days, and then return a week or so later.As for seeing no hope in this world?
WAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA - you have no idea. NO FREAKING IDEA. This world was on the edge of nuclear warfare when Kennedy died, in the US children practiced hiding under their desks, in the USSR children practiced putting on gas masks. Ever see the movie Fail Safe? That was a real fear that could have happened very easily. The USSR had no problem invading anyone they wanted, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Iran, Romania, Bulgaria, Manchuria, Korea. The only thing that kept this secure was strong men standing tall, flying nuclear alert for days at a time. We didn't have the time to weep and gnash our teeth every time the temperature exceeded a computer model. Devolved? I can travel to any part of Europe I want, in 1977 I was not allowed within 50 miles of the East/West German Border. Educate yourself.
That did exist at the time; there just wasn't an Internet back then to amplify it. In grad school I had a part time job at my university's rare book library, and we received a bunch of Thornton Wilder's papers and letters that I had to catalog. He was in Arizona on 11/22/63, and in a letter to his sister he reported a lot of the local nutjobs there were happy about what happened.
