"Special news bulletins" you remember?
Edited on Sun Oct-03-10 01:35 AM by HEyHEY
Aside from 911, cause that's a fairly obvious one everyone remembers. But, how about other ones from the years? I think the only one I really remember is desert storm starting.


Just thought of this thread cause of this....50 years ago and it still sucks hard.
