I like to think I remember the Moon landing, but I don't think I do.

I do remember there was some unrest on the streets or something, and now
looking back at the history book, it could have been the communist rioting
and demonstrating on the streets (of HK).

Then Bruce Lee died. How could he? He is Super-Superman?!

Then the day we moved to US.

Then John Lennon - but that was more because tons of college mates were
shocked.

Meeting my wife to be ...

Then the Challenger. I was working, I couldn't believe it.

And a call that my mother went to the hospital :-(

The Wall came down?! No way. Just a few years prior, my boss said he would
rather see US being obliterated, along with the Soviet, than being
subjugated under the Reds.

Tinanmen. I was speechless. How could Chinese military, kill Chinese
citizens?

90s was kind of a blur - moved to CA, raised two kids. Started a business.
tons of stuff.

9/11. Shocked beyond belief.

2004 election. I was ready to move to Canada.

More blur.
