Where were you?

Try thinking about the answers to these questions... you might reveal a little about yourself

...When you learned that Pope John Paul II had died?
I was driving on the way to the City over the Auckland Harbour Bridge when I noticed the flags flying at half mast. I then realised that the pontiff had passed on and that the flags were flying as a mark of respect for the man. I think I knew then without actually hearing or viewing because it was expected...

... When you learned of 9/11?
I was sleeping restlessly on my friend's couch after spending most of the night sitting staring out the window at the city whilst at the bedside of my father who was in critical care after a serious injury. My friend lived around the corner from the City Hospital and I'd taken the invitation to crash there after a long day and fitful night. I was woken by Sarah at 4.30am who turned on the TV explaining that I had to see it as she couldn't explain it - I initially was in denial (thinking it was a hoax), then stunned appreciation of events and then numbness... I ended up taking a walk down by the harbour trying to make sense of the events... I'm still trying.

... When you heard that Princess Diana had died in Paris?
I honestly can't remember - it simply doesn't register high in my memories. I still don't understand why it's so important to some people...

... When Iraq invaded Kuwait?
I was working in my first full time gig after graduating from University... I ended up going up to one of the training rooms to watch the news... the reception was crap on the TV and I ended up jury rigging a makeshift aerial out of some wire, paper clips and a clothes hanger. I remember thinking that the Western World would retaliate and that it could drag into a long and dirty war...

I was working when someone came in and turned the radio station to news reports of what was occuring. We all stood around for the rest of the morning just listening. There was a fear that something worse was imminent like a nuclear bomb being detonated or similar, but that didn't occur thankfully. I really didn't like how the media kept repeating things and "guessing" about what was going on. It really didn't do much good and it scared some people. Didn't get much more work done that day, and I remember driving home in a daze listening to the radio on the way home.

Flying an airplane in Florida. I landed at a small airport to refuel, and no one was around. I went into the terminal, they were all clustered around the TV.

Yes it was right. No need to worry kids (sorry, middle school you're a kid) about something that they have no control over and isn't going to put them in danger.

Dude, I was in 6th grade too. It was english class, I recall. They told us something had happened, but didnt say exactly what happened. So we had to go through the rest of the day wondering what the hell was going on.

Where the heck have you been Replicant!?! I've missed these insightful threads. No one did them like you!

Thanks... been busy trying to get some balance with a lot of things in my life - been pushing myself hard at my job (which has paid off), wrecked my knee before Xmas that meant a lot of time spent at the physio and rehab in the gym, been travelling when I could, chasing various women and deciding that happiness is a journey rather than a destination...

Seems I forgot to put answers in to some of these...

When you fell in love for the first time?
I'd been in 'lust ' many times before I actually fell for someone... I have to admit I fell for her pretty hard which made it all the more difficult when it was time to let her go... I'd gone out with a series of various women - some for years... before I finally finally had the unconditional love thing happen - doomed to fail from the start for so many reasons I could write a book (and possibly might one day - I have enough material...)

Baby where did the love go?
Dunno, probably on a big silver flying tube... like most of the women in my life, they seem to leave the country rather than stick around afterwards... One of my best friends said she thinks it has to because a) being with me is an experience that opens a girl's horizons; b) they hate me so much they can't even bear to be in the same country or the same side of the world; c) I'm a magnet for crazy chicks who just want some short term affair... She also thinks it's about time I hopped on a plane and chased after one of them.... maybe she's right!

... When you learned of 9/11?
In bed, waking up after a related dream.

... When you heard that Princess Diana had died in Paris?
No clue.

... When Iraq invaded Kuwait?
Too young to remember.

... When you heard John Lennon was shot and Elvis had died?
Half in one body; half in another.

... When you fell in love for the first time?
... Baby, where did that love go?
These do not apply. Yet.

... Where did you go and what did you do on your first big overseas trip?
Haven't been overseas yet. Farthest I've gone was to Washington DC a few weeks ago.
