So you had your summer school vacation ruined by the Watergate hearings, too? My TV shows were all pre-empted.

I remember that. I was about 14.

Wife and I spent almost 2 weeks in DC once. Got a high end room for $25 a night ( worked for the hotel company and had connections).

It was 1991. ALL TV was pre-empted with the Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings. Say him say “high tech lynching” live.

Senator Biden was a total asshole.

No. I was probably out riding my bike, surfing, fishing, working at my dads restaurant, etc...
