Mind blown, I had no idea that song was popular enough for people to recite it like that. Hell of a jam.

Never liked the song. Always made me want to poo, for some reason.

Asa kid, that is the first crime story that I remember. It was terrifying to think a guy was up there shooting everyone downtown. I will never forget the name Mark Essex; and I recall the story every time I see or hear about a Howard Johnson's hotel.

Nope. Ruger .44 mag carbine. That is it.

No “assault” rifle. No super sniper rifle.

I remember my Dad giving blood and saying folks were lined up on stretchers in the hospital halls.
I also remember the stairwells exterior walls looking like Swiss cheese for months after from all the police gunshots. Was the first real serious crime I can remember.

I remember my dad wanting to go down to work on Monday and my mom freaking out. The thought was there could have been more shooters still there. I agree with an earlier comment that the name Mark Essex will be remembered for that infamous event.
