We had a home computer - a TRS-80 4K thing that let you play backgammon and Hammurabi. I was typing up a possible game on it, and my brother leaned over my shoulder and typed in "Guess who got shot?"

I thought he was telling a joke with a weird punchline. Then he turned on the television, and the reports were in. John Lennon was dead.

I wasn't born when Kennedy was shot. Most other famous deaths haven't made much of an impact. But that's one I'll always remember.

Do you remember what you were doing when you heard about John Lennon's death?
