I was working in an Emergency Room in Terrell, Texas. We took turns going to the Doctor's Lounge and watching it on TV.

I was four and half so I don't remember too much of that day. I remember thought that it also was the start of free travelling for hungarians also as the next year we went on a holiday to the mediterranean. [img]smile.gif[/img]

The location was Landstuhl Army Medical Center, where my parents were stationed. I was 6 years old [img]tongue.gif[/img] I don't remember too much about it... I had my first girlfriend, named Jana. She was the prettiest girl I'd ever seen, and we made sweet love for .... ... no, scratch the last part. We went to a couple movies, accompanied by our separate parents But I still remember her just fine. Also, our housekeeper Chris made the best cakes & pies! Not Fulda, but good times nonetheless |

I was 2 years and 6 months old, in my apartment in Florence Kentucky, more than likely playing outside in the snow because there would be snow there by this time of year.

15 years ago, I was 10 years old. Likely either with my nose stuck in a book or doing homework.

... That day... 15 years ago... was a day of sorrow for the penguins. The war between the Walrus Empire was over, but at what cost? The lives of thousands upon thousands of penguins. I was there on that battlefield, and for once in my penguiny life, things really seemed cold. The cold wind bit at my skin underneath my feathers and I fell to the ground. All I could do was cry as I stared at the battlefield full of corpses. Penguins... Walruses... all dead. It was unfair, it wasn't right. Why did so many have to die because of some evil tyrant? I screamed and thrust my sword into the snow. I knelt down and said a silent prayer for my slain comrades and left the battlefield, heading somewhere, anywhere. I didn't care. I just wanted to get away from the smell of death that hung heavy in the air overhead...
Actually I wasn't even born yet.

Someguy that was good!
That whole period was one of constant amazement, not just Berlin but in all the other east europe countries, South Africa too! What a time it was. For a while sanity seemed to break out all over the world. Shame its sank back into the mess again

Fifteen years ago? Hmmmm. Probably falling on my face when learning to walk.

I was 10 years old back then, and I quite clearly remember seeing it on tv when it happened.
