All too soon! Sadly if you don't live on the east coast, you don't really worry about terrorism like us!

The problem with America is stupidity.
I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment
for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety
labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

Yup, I think on my way to work next Wednesday, I'm going to drive downtown and pay my respects...again. I just can't believe its been a year. I've also been having trouble getting used to that changed skyline, it haunts me everyday as I drive to work. Thank God my friends that worked there made it out and in one piece.

How is that sad? And how would people in San Francisco not have to worry; I heard many many warnings on the Golden Gate. I've heard many stories of the terrorists either being in or planning attacks in Seattle and San Diego. It affects us all. And that is the sad part.

so soon...
I'm just glad I got a chance to experience it fully. My company is doing some of the rebuild work down there and I got to walk down into the 'ditch' 2 weeks ago. I walked all over, down into the subway tunnels and all. Gained a different perspective after that.

I think a lot of people from OK city would disagree with this. But I do agree with it coming so quick. Seems just like yesterday when I got the call from my pop saying we were going to war, just in time to watch the towers fall. I still get this huge ball of rage thinking about it.

One of those things I'll always remember where/when I heard about it, like my parents when Kennedy got shot. I remember being THE person with news at work because I was hitting reload on the thread here every 5 seconds.
My birthday is Friday, and now every year my b-day is going to lead up to the saddest day in recent American history.

it will be a doubly sad day for me as my pops passed sept 11 from cancer..... i still remember us explaining (trying) to my girls then 6yr old about why mean people would want to do something like that to us as americans i worry about terrorism particularly since irvine where mom lives is a haven for terrorist candidates.... the guy that shot up l.a.x back on memorial day was from irvine
