OJ Simpson... we weren't allowed to watch it during school, so those of us without a walkman or access to a friend with a walkman found out after school. I was walking out of my junior high... either 7th or 8th grade. I don't remember the Gulf War that much... I remember pictures of oil everywhere and scuds and scud jokes ("scud lite... never hits the spot" and so forth) and worrying about Israel because in my Hebrew school we were told that was what we were supposed to worry about... Hussein was anti-semitic and that was all that mattered, of course. I got the hell out of that place when, the day after Rabin was shot the principal gave this speech about how Jews should not kill Jews... the message was not very subtle... Jews should be killing Arabs. I strongly dislike propoganda. Something I remember is the Crown Heights Riots happening about 1/4 mile from my house... I wasn't allowed outside that day. I actually worried about the fact that we have a Mezuza on our doorpost... thinking of our house as being marked. "To believe that knowledge is ignorance is noble.

I learned that from this old Pizza Hut commercial ^_^ Ho ho. Yes, I think in lieu of Frucontent, discussing where we each learned to perform this feat is an excellent idea. I admit to being a late bloomer in spoon-hanging -- didn't learn it until I was a sophomore in college, when my famous friend Rob taught a whole gang of us how to do this around the dinner table. This dinner table was decorated with "charming cabbage centerpieces," as suggested by a decidedly pre-Martha decorating mag, which some of us had made while others of us were ... erm ... otherwise engaged. ;) Hey, it was a vacation week, down the shore, and there was nothing to do but alter our consciousnesses, and play charades, and do tricks with silverware ... Once we had mastered this feat, whenever we went out en masse to a Bennigan's or Houlihan's or someplace else where there were tables with actual cutlery on them, we inevitably had to demonstrate our spoon-wearing savvy. - -- Lori Glitter Fairy/Tattooing Fru ********** a creature of high decorum, beloved by waitstaff everywhere ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 26 Jan 2000 20:34:20 GMT From: Subject: Re: You Can't Do That On Moxy Fruvous SaphiraCat83 wrote in message <20000126141424.12898.00000044@ng-cl1.aol.com>... >>>Where were you when you heard about the OJ Simpson Verdict?" >>>And everyone seems to have been in 8th grade math class. > >I was in 7th grade English I think... > Grade 7 Social is where I was when I heard the verdict.

The first was the Apollo 11 moon landing. I was elementary school then (won't say how old as you would work out how old!) and my dad let me stay up to see it. It was what gave me my intense fascination with space. Next event was Watergate. Yawn! I didn't care too much, but it was all that was on TV. The biggest event I can remember that effected me was the Jonestown mass suicide. There may be some of you who may not know what I'm talking about. I don't know how well known it is to those of you who weren't alive then. I was in high school then and was taking an American Problems class in which we read Newsweek every week as our textbook. What I remember most is page after page of full color pictures of all of the bloated dead bodies. It still effects me. As to what has been mentioned so far, I was working at a department store when the Challenger exploded. I stood in the TV room for an hour watching with most everyone else in the store. You could hear a pin drop! As far as OJ is concerned, I was, again, at work. One of our managers had borrowed a TV from the media room and we watched it in the breakroom.

The Gulf War is something else. I was home about to go to my second job when they started showing the bombing on TV. I watched it until I left. One thing I remember was thinking about a young man Cookie and I had met in London when we had been there in October. He was in London for only one day on his way home from military training in Germany. We met him on the tour bus in the morning and he went with us to Madame Tousauds and later met us at the Sherlock Holmes Pub. After the pub closed, we walked to Buckingham Palace where we were 3 obnoxious Americans in front of the gates. He told us that he was anxiously waiting to be sent to Saudi. I've never understood why. I wrote to him a few times, but never got a response. I have a major concern about the effects of the war. A good friend of mine fought in the war and is dying today because of the chemical warfare those poor Iraqi soldiers decided to use. I know that the military still won't admit fully to the knowledge that chemical warfare was being used. Gulf War syndrome still as no cure and there is still denial that those men who are suffering from it are telling the truth. I know the truth as I watch my friend go downhill every month. We don't know if how long he has. If you want to feel empathy with the Iraqi soldiers, that's your choice. They weren't totally without choice. They mostly died with the knowledge that they were doing what was right. Religious fervor is their life and their leader is as important to them, even more so than ours to us. Enough preaching. This is topic that I get very emotional over and I sometimes can't help . . . well, enough is enough.
