December 8, 1980... Another day, more infamy

[Dravyk]

I was old enough to remember it well, but young enough to not understand why they used the word assassin instead of murderer. (Though even today, to an extent, that can be debatable.)

Was disappointed that "Strawberry Fields" memorial in Central Park is just a bronze stamp in the walkway. (Yes, park, Beattles, strawberry fields ...) It really would not have taken much to plant a stretch of wild strawberries in Central Park. That would have been much nicer I think.

(And then the city would probably get sued by homeless people for poisoning them or something stupid, but I digress.)
