Ready to feel old?

No it's not one of those lists about how modern kids have never used a rotary telephone. Think back to one of the JFK-type moments for our generation. One of the events that most folks can say where-they-were, what-they-were doing when they heard the news. Not Reagan being shot, not the start of the 1st Gulf War... this time I'm referring to the Challenger accident. Today is the anniversary of that sad day.

Now the part that at least gave me a "feeling old" moment earlier:

Not that today is the anniversary...but that it was 22 years ago. That's right; kids born after that happened are now old enough to drink in public.
