Happy birthday JFK Jr., you left us way too early.

Happy birthday JFK Jr.! He went through a lot in his short life. I'm 8 days younger than him. My mom loved/s the Kennedy's, and she and others would bring up comparisons in our lives. Kindergarten, high school...I was awaiting my first bar exam results, while he was trying to pass on his 3d try, and I got a lot of jokes in the duration. Thankfully we both passed in that cycle. Then it so happened we got married on the same day. His wedding was hushed, ours was very public. When my husband and I checked into our motel room, we turned on the TV, and the big news was the world's most eligible bachelor had married. Tom thought it was about him. Anyway, I was too young to grieve his dad's death, but I'll never forget his passing. Happy Birthday, and a restful peace to our sweet prince.

Edited, some obviously don't realize he has passed from this world.

3. Did you not read the last 2 sentences of my OP?

He died tragically in a plane crash. Because of our close age, I followed events in his life, whether it was because of my mom or coincidence...we had a parallel life. And I really felt for him having to live his life in the public eye.

But screw it, someone always has to piss in the Cheetos!
