Twenty-one years ago today. It just doesn't seem possible it's been that long. My mom was pregnant with my little sister. To this day, I still remember her breaking down and crying when the news came on TV, and I still get chills thinking about it. I was too young then to understand just what the world had lost -- but knowing the sadness we felt over losing George, I can only imagine what it must have been like to watch the first major piece of your childhood fade away. Imagine.
I remember it ... of course I was 11. And a big Beatles fan. I looooved the Beatles, and it was a stunning tragic day. I remember thinking that they would get back together ... until that day. A dream died.

As you said, it was devestating to me. They were my childhood idols. I was only in grade school when they first came on Ed Sullivan's show, but I was so in LUV with the group. Still am. How many guys their age are still idols for all ages?
