JFK And Others

I know they hardly declare this day a national holiday or anything, but this is the 32nd anniversary of JFK's assassination, as well as the anniversary of the deaths of C S Lewis and Aldous Huxley - who both died on the exact same day in 1963.

A Grim Anniversary

Today 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.
