This is so weird that he's finally leaving. He's been in office since I was a child. We lived a few blocks from the Houston airport and Cubans carried out a few hijackings on Houston-based planes at the time. Then during the Cuban missile crisis, we had to have bomb drills in which we got under our desks. Nobody ever explained what bombs were like and I thought it meant that planes could fly over the school and drop cannonballs on our heads.
