I still remember where I was on that sad day, but LJ probably wasn't even born yet.
NOT a favorite quote, but rather a historical one for everyone watching the launch on TV - Obviously, a major malfunction..... Quote:

It’s crazy but I’ll always remember this happening and the people involved.
I was thirteen years old, 1973. After basketball practice. Coach Hoppe has a jacket in his hand. He asks, “whose jacket is this?” Joel Sierra, who has a twin brother named Jerry, says, “that’s Joes.” There’s no Joe on our team. Coach says, “ Joe, Joe who?” Jerry says, “Joe mama”. And there you have it. We were rolling after that! The first “Joe mama” I ever heard, 1973. |

We still laugh over that from time to time, she's no longer with us but still remind him of that. Of course we have taught our kids (they're in their 30's) that one and we will refer to my wife in the same manner.

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
