A DATE WHICH WILL LIVE IN INFAMY

yes indeed

On that morning I was off and watching Regis and Kelly in the living room sipping coffee

regis....i thought u were straight....i guess i was wrong!!!

I was at work when the second plane hit. The lady who used to own our company and I were watching the news in our conference room. I told her someone just asked for a dose of special forces...

I am not a Sean Hannity fan, but today I caught him talking with Rudy. Had me in tears thinking about what is so close in my memory banks even still. The images of those people jumping....wow.

its weird how people remember exactly what they were doing during these fuq'd up times.

i just landed back in Japan. My passport still has the stamp. i left Chicago just hours before.

It was a Bad bad Day and devasted our hopes for for peace and cooperation on this earth for now..

Nah, just opened our eyes a little bit more. That is not to say it was not a significant, horrible event in our history.

I remember my wife having dropped me off at work on her way to taking the kids to school. Someone saw or heard about it and we watched it on TV. It made me sick and I remember not being able to get a hold of my wife to get her to come pick me up and take me home. So, I ended up calling for a taxi. The second most chilling day of my life as an American (after the riots in Detroit when I was a kid)...

May God have mercy.

We will never forget!

I was driving to work, listening to Howard Stern (I think) when he mentioned the first plane. Once the 2nd plane hit, there was no doubt it was terrorism.

^4^ the point I was making was Busa..... What I was doing and Where I was today, 9 years ago, when hundreds of American lives were changed and was reflecting back on that, may God rest their souls ! and the families still deaing with that tragedy.

I was a mile or so uptown and was in the elevator when the first plane hit, some people in my office knew people in the WTC, called one and they had felt the shudder-they didn't know what it was,they raised the alarm on their floor and got out. We later heard another of their friends did not.

Tough time to be in NYC then.

Prayers and blessings to all.

I was at work........somehow somebody caught wind and out the news on the PA system.

I don't live too far from Somerset County; and when that plane went down there, everyone was a little nervous.

There was mention on the news of an airplane that was involved with the attack having originated from a local (small) airport. I've yet to hear the rationale behind that report.

I wanted to go home and gather my family. That was my primal reaction to the "threat". The owner company announced that we would not be closing early.....things were still sort of jumbled and unclear.

I was pissed because I really thought that even the initial confirmed information clearly indicated that we were being attacked in some manner; and I thought that it was pretty stupid to expect people to sit at work.

BS.

Half the population under the age of 25 don't know what happened on Dec 7, 1941; the original day we would never forget.

10% of people living in America aren't even Americans. So you can rule them out of the equation.

I've been told that it's just a NY thing.

I think I'm going to do something else today instead of remembering the tragic loss.

Wearing a 'Gone but not forgotten' shirt someone here sent me a few years ago. Sadly my memory fails me. I've worn this shirt like 4 times I think... Thanks again whoever it was...

I was listening to news on the radio as I awoke that morning to get ready for work. Turned on the tv just in time to see the 2nd plane hit. Ended up being late for work because I was so mesmerized by the images that were broadcast. Even when I got to work I didn't get much done as I had a little tv there to watch.

The one thing about this great tragedy; it brought us together as a nation if only for a little while.

Tuesdays were my day to grade papers in my son's 4th grade class. I was just leaving and ran into another parent who was dropping their child off late that morning - she was telling everyone what had happened.
