I was a small child when Kennedy was shot. As for 9-11, I had built a spec home on a vacant lot I owned. The housing market had gone soft and the home was not selling. A woman had made an offer on it and I was heading over to the house to let in the mortgage appraiser when the news came over the car radio. I listened to the first tower fall. I went in and told the appraiser and he acted like I was boring him. Second tower fell while I was in the house. I watched all the replays when I got home. Then the anthrax scare started. No one in this house was allowed near the mailbox except me and I opened all the mail outdoors over the curb-cart. Kept that up for a couple months. For those who do not know it, I am a CPA, and many of my clients reported near zero collections for the next month. Many went out of business and by 2008 we had lost half our business client base. I always kept my overhead very low and it saved us. We are still only operating at about 70% of our former level. Doubt it will ever come back completely.
