Your writing brings about several flashbacks

1. I was in a hotel en route to Shanghai when in the radio broadcast came the news of the passing of the great leader. All the adults around me suddenly acted like chicken with their heads cut off. When we got to Shanghai to my grandfather's home, I watched almost 1 month of mourning procession on TV. And no other program was on TV. In the end, I can recite the name list before the host.

2. In those day, a classmate who share the same last name as the great leader was automatically a prodigy for nothing.

3. My dad bought all the parts and assembled a big radio, with shortwaves (wink wink, VOA etc) and a vinyl disk player. It took him 3 months. It is still at home.
