Events we remember...

Events I remember:
1. 911: I remember I first heard about it on the radio on the way home from school in third grade.
2: Hurricane Katrina: In 7th grade. I remember it because it was such a big event that is still talked about on the news.
3. Oil spill in the gulf: This event is so memorable because it is so current, also because it affected so many people and animals.

Events my Dad remembers:
1. Martin Luther King was shot: Just got home from school and saw a news bulletin. Was killed 60 miles from where my Dad lived.
2. George Wallace, the governor of Alabama was shot for blocking the military when entering the University of Alabama: Grew up in th south, there was so much negative publicity about him and was not surprised when he was killed.
3. Nixon resigning: Supported Nixon in 6th grade, was disappointed when the Water gate scandal occurred. He was disappointed because he supported him as a small 6th grader.
