I have two memories like that - I was at home, after school, watching TV when President Kennedy was assassinated. I was 7. The second was being at the office and watching the 9/11 attacks and feeling very uneasy, watching the second plane go into the second tower, watching people jump and not realizing it right away and then being sick thinking about it - it was a scary day.
My parents always said they would never forget where they were when Kennedy was shot. I know I'll never forget where I was on 9/11. I was on a conference call with my boss and a prospective customer. I even remember who that prospect was. The people who worked for me were running around outside of my office. I was pissed because they knew it was an important call. When I was finished I whipped open my door and they were crying.
