That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it...
Oh no, I've said too much
Michael Stipe, R.E.M. (1991)
I was born early on a Sunday morning on the 13th of November 1966.
The presidential election of 1984 was held on Tuesday, November 6.
That day being exactly one week before my 18th birthday.
That day being exactly one week before my 18th birthday.
I was, at the time, a senior at an exclusive private evangelical christian high school in Phoenix, Arizona. Thus, I was completely crushed that I wouldn't be allowed to cast my first-ever vote in any election to re-elect Ronald Reagan to a second term as president of the United States.
Even though he didn't really need it.
