A Grim Anniversary
Nov. 22nd, 2004 06:44 pmToday is the 41st anniversary of the deaths of John F Kennedy, C S Lewis and Aldous Huxley, who all died on this exact same date in 1963.
This time last year, on the 40th anniversary, I was at work in Mecca Bingo. I wandered in that morning, clutching the copy of Fortean Times I'd only just picked up, and said "Paranoid? Moi?" before opening the magazine up to reveal the cover - which was all in black, with the words "WHO SHOT JFK?" writ large in bold white letters on the cover.
