162. I was at work.

We weren't allowed to listen to radio on my job, but my roomie was, who called me to give me the news. I gave the news to the rest of my co-workers and managers. The Big Cheese Boss brought a TV into our work space that was kept in the conference room so we could all watch what went on that day. While home on the weekend, there still was non-stop news coverage and Americans were able to watch what was probably the first live homicide on air, when Jack Ruby killed Harvey Oswald.
