That's one of those moments for me too, along with the moon landing, Sept. 11th, Paul Henderson's goal and Stevie Ray Vaughan's death.

I was on my way to work at Prudential Steel, driving down 52nd St SE when news of Lennon's death came on the radio. I turned around, went home, phoned in sick and sat around getting numb on weed and beer all night. His death still causes me a lot of anger.
