We don't think of figures like JFK as normal, frail, worried human beings anymore, we see them only as our icons. Until you catch on to the fact that Jack is who he is, this could be any man, nervously preparing to face an uncertain day. Well done.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07893187073274136258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5868832066925549024.post-61422693483207780492009-09-13T10:58:10.162-05:002009-09-13T10:58:10.162-05:00yep, I was a slow coach too!
