Lonnie Garamond was disturbed by the face[00:00:14]

That looked back at him from the bathroom mirror[00:00:17]

He looked older than he remembered[00:00:21]

It was as if all forty two years of his life[00:00:24]

Had suddenly leap frogged over each other[00:00:27]

And crash landed in his face[00:00:30]

He was middle aged and the truth hit him[00:00:35]

Like a man with no parachute[00:00:39]

The eyes were golfballs[00:00:42]

The skin hung on his face like a cheap suit[00:00:45]

And the trapdoor of greasy black frizz[00:00:49]

That he combed from one side of his head to the other[00:00:52]

To hide his baldness[00:00:56]

In reality emphasized it[00:00:57]

It was 230 in the morning Nov[00:01:00]

22nd 1963[00:01:05]

And Lonnie couldn't sleep[00:01:06]

Lonnie took a last look at the face[00:01:12]

And popped another sleeping tablet[00:01:18]

Under his sandpaper tongue[00:01:26]

And slipped into a cold[00:01:32]

Dark sleep[00:01:36]

The last thing Lonnie saw[00:01:40]

Before his eyes finally closed[00:01:42]

Was his camera watching him[00:01:45]

From the other side of the Motel room[00:01:47]

But the camera wasn't loaded yet[00:01:57]

Lonnie Garamond was a loser[00:02:09]

Lonnie Garamond was a loser[00:02:13]

Lonnie Garamond was a loser[00:02:17]

And he really hated being that[00:02:20]

Lonnie's body clock woke him at 830 sharp[00:02:24]

He stabbed a button by his bed[00:02:27]

And the TV crackled into life[00:02:29]

Showing the crowds already gathering[00:02:32]

In Dealy Plaza[00:02:33]

He showered[00:02:35]

Shaved[00:02:36]

And slipped into an Ivy League jacket[00:02:37]

And brown slacks and loaded the camera[00:02:39]

The Stetson put the icing on the southern cake[00:02:43]

And he headed for the parking lot[00:02:45]

Leaving the key behind in his room[00:02:47]

He knew he wouldn't be coming back[00:02:50]

Lonnie Garamond was a loser[00:02:53]

Lonnie Garamond was a loser[00:02:57]

Lonnie Garamond was a loser[00:03:00]

And he really hated being that[00:03:03]

Lonnie parked the Buick and ran down Pacific St[00:03:07]

It was 12[00:03:10]

15 and he wanted to be outside[00:03:12]

The Texas School Book Depository[00:03:13]

Before the motorcade came down Elm St[00:03:15]

12[00:03:19]

20[00:03:19]

He elbowed his way through a group of good ol' boys[00:03:21]

And stood next to a kid in a wheelchair[00:03:26]

Waving a Confederate flag[00:03:28]

12[00:03:30]

25[00:03:30]

He took off the lens cap[00:03:30]

And lit his first cigarette for two years[00:03:34]

He checked the focus one last time[00:03:37]

And blew a smoke ring[00:03:40]

Into the blue Dallas heat haze[00:03:41]

12[00:03:44]

30[00:03:45]

He ground the Lucky Strike under the heel of his boot[00:03:45]

And calmly squeezed off three shots[00:03:49]

Lonnie put the camera back into its case[00:03:54]

And melted into the panic[00:04:05]

Lonnie Garamond was a loser[00:04:19]

Lonnie Garamond was a loser[00:04:25]

Lonnie Garamond was a loser[00:04:30]

And he really hated being that[00:04:38]
