I found an interesting website. You plug in your birthdate, and it comes up with lists of events, and how old you were at the time.

It's interesting. For instance, I clearly remember the Challenger, but for the life of me can't imagine myself being 27!!

Enjoy...

Wow! Maybe you were at the same website I was! I came across this one today too!

Really brought back some memories...I remember laying on my back in the back yard with my dad and my sister ....watching the sky for Sputnik.

and who could forget 1969...what a year....I was only 18...but was soaking it all in.

Check it out gang..it is really neat!

(or it will make you feel really old)

I didn't even realize I was alive when the Berlin Wall came crashing down.
