[MR REMI RED]

aside from FAMILY tales that we all are gonna tell out children and GRAND CHILDREN..

what are somethings that have happened in the WORLD that you've witnessed via "1st hand" or by "MEDIA coverage" that you plan on PASSING DOWN to them...

[Juicey1]

The tragedy of Sept. 11th

Can't think of anything else right now.....I am too sleepy

[Tastey]

This reminds me of just how old I am and how much history I have actually lived through.

The ending of the Vietnam war.
Watergate
The Charles Manson gang
The shooting of Gerald Ford
The Challenger explosion
Desert Storm/Desert Shield
Oklahoma City bombing
Jim Jones tragedy...

I could go on and on.

I'm not sure what I will share. It depends on the curiosity of my child and the things that stick out in mind.

The FIRST bombing of the WTC was the same week my son was born. That and the Branch Davidian tragedy. Those I will definately want to share.

i was too young when this happened, but, affected when i learned about it.

one of my aunts was part of that jim jones church and the only thing that kept her from going (as was confirmed by her sister just a few days ago) was that she got sick during the time she was suppose to fly and her dr restricted her from flying. then a few days later, was when the massacre occured.

haleys' comet

branch davidian

that other cult that was looking for the space ship to come pick them up and they all died

bring the cable cars back campaign i did a poster for in elementary school after the service had been shut down for decades

didn't the berlin walls come down during our times?

both middle eastern wars (got some war vets as friends to hook that story up)

[Tastey]

Yes, Hula the wall did come down.

I grew up with the threat of Cold War and sometimes forget that the threat of terrorism is different.
