Before there was the Fab Four there was the Rat Pack.
This week, two of their main members share historical moments. It was 40 years ago Tuesday, Dec. 8, that we lost John Lennon to an assassin s bullet and this Saturday we mark what would have been Francis Albert Sinatra s 105th birthday.
It s also the 60th anniversary of The Rat Pack.
