I'd rather have my sister work in a whorehouse than own another Taurus!
15 cent hamburgers and 10 cent fries.
4 hamburgers and 4 fries for a dollar----used to eat that on the way up north to go hunting.
maybe the cheeseburgers were a few cents more...............long time ago.

I, too, think it was a horrible thing, and marked the decline of politics for many years to come after that day.

Who Was the Umbrella Man?
Dad 5-31-13
AKA: Former Founding Member
If you are Oliver Stone, he was the mastermind of the whole convoluted conspiracy, signalling the shooters, while sending a last message to a dying man about his failure to protect the Cuban freedom fighters with air cover, at the Bay of Pigs.
If you are sensible person, he was most likely just a heckler who had discovered that the opened umbrella was a dig at Joseph Kennedy for backing Neville Chamberlain, who usually carried an umbrella..
Actual footage;
Love the music.
In school. It was just after lunch when my 6th grade teacher came it a bit late. You could tell from the redness in her eyes that she had been crying. She announced to the class that the president had been assassinated. It was probably the first and only time that year that the entire room was silent.
Gun control laws make about as much sense as taking ex-lax to cure a cough.
We were watching an old rerun of the X files, and learned that it was the cigarette smoking man who shot JFK from the storm gutter. He was signaled by the umbrella man.
Or at least that's the way it was presented in that episode. It was also the cigarette smoking man who killed MLK.

My teacher had obviously been crying, too. But, when it was announced over the PA, the class clown cheered, and the teacher completely freaked out. I thought she was going to beat him down, but instead she took it out on the whole class with a long tirade that had most of the girls crying and the boys wanting to crawl under their desks. She was right, of course, in what she said, but it was still a bit surprising for me to see a grown-up get so riled up. We all proceeded as if walking on eggshells, for the rest of the day.

Gee, I don't know what to say...you have video. Poor choice of weapon, though.
