What a terrible day. I remember it like it was yesterday. It was only my second day on the job and my office got destroyed. 23rd floor South tower. Not fun.

Hell yea that day was friggin crazy. I still remember everything that happened. 2 of my friends in high school that day lost both their parents b/c they worked in the WTC. Sucks ass. My dad was going to take my uncle visiting from china that day to NYC to see the WTC, but they missed the train and didn't go. Talk about effin lucky.

Senior year in high school.. We had this one teacher who used to come in every morning to bs during my history class. When he came in that morning and told us planes flew into the WTC we were all like 'yeah okay..'

Went to school couple miles from the 177th Fighter Wing (nj air national guard). Those F-16's were flying like crazy.

take time to enjoy life and be fortunate for what you have...


as they say, dont make a mountain out of a mole hill; dont sweat the small stuff; even tho it may tick you off, is it really worth it?

In my dorm Jr. yr @ Howard University in DC. I had just gone to bed after an all night cram session and a buddy of mine came into my room and shook me awake saying we were under attack. Of course, him being him I told him to quit playing that I was tired. He told me to look out of my window as we were high up enough to see the Pentagon. I saw the smoke and turned on the TV and was in total shock. We both looked @ each other w/ a look of you know what this means, as we both just finished USMC OCS @ Quantico. I watched TV for the next 2 days straight. DC looked like a something out of movie The Siege for weeks afterward w/ arm soldiers on just about every corner.

I have to say that I have no idea what kind of an impact this has had to all of your lives. I was safely in Finland and watching this all live from TV, and it sure felt like watching a movie. At that time I had never even visited the US. It is quite shocking to now read these stories from people I know.

I do miss the towers. My ex gf and I would frequent NYC on our spring break days while in highschool and sight see. We always made a stop at the twin towers to go to the top.

And yes, no more war, don't vote for mcsame and failin.
