I was in front of an electronics store on 42nd St and Grand Central Station.
In my thoughts today.

I was at work, preparing to track the shuttle's orbit by radar and listening to the NASA launch control chatter on the IFB. I heard it all the instant that it happened. But I didn't see it until I got home from work at 1645 and switched on the tube.

I'll never forget that day......

I was sitting in my office making a sales call when my client told me the Space Shuttle just blew up.

That brings up a pet peeve of mine, namely all these liars who say they can't swim. There here aren't they? Then they can swim really good cuz they beat 15,000,000 others to the finish line.
