First Kiss

It's surprising how many people remember their first kiss. We were discussing this with friends a while back and I was touched by their stories.

Do you remember your first kiss?

I grew up in Indianapolis. My first kiss was on the front porch of my house. I was probably 13 years old. This kid named Tim kissed me. He was a neighbor and we knew his whole family. I later went out with him a couple of times and later, still, I went out with his brother.

Some time after that Tim and his family joined Jim Jones' People's Temple. Tim, along with most of his family members, died in Guyana in 1978, along with 900 or so other mass suicide victims, after drinking cyanide laced kool-aid.
