"Ah, Brian, ever the inquisitive mind, aren't you?"
"Very funny, Munch." He really needs a new set of comebacks. "Really, why you got that picture?"
"If you really must know, his assassination was the reason I became interested in government conspiracies."
"Quit yanking my chain."
I sigh. "Do you remember ever watching TV and watching the president or someone make a speech? Not just State of the Union, bullshit if you ask me, but... when the Gulf War came around, do you remember Bush getting on television to announce it to the world?" He looks at me dumbly. "Please tell me you've heard of Kennedy's line about asking not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country?" Recognition dawns on his face. I shake my head and take a deep breath. "Anyway, I remember sitting in my living room with my brother and my mother when he his inaugural address." I shrug, not used to sharing personal things with Cassidy. "It's just something that stuck with me." I went back to my paperwork before either of us said anything more.
That was always safest.
