Truly: Sam Opened 1984 Olympics

Deja vu - it was 24 years ago during the opening ceremonies for the 1984 olympics that there was a horrendous lightening and thunder storm - just like (Friday night) -- and wouldn't ya know it but I went into labor with Sam. Walking into the hospital with thunder and lightening was like a creature feature and I was walking into the twilight zone or maybe Dracula's castle -- no offense to Sam but that's how it came down that night :) But after the storm passed we had a beautiful son who peed in the docs face just to let her know he had arrived :)/Truly.

Question: Have your parents told you stories about anything memorable that was occurring at the time of your birth in the world around them?
