We grabbed bears and pizza and sat around watching the news broadcast. The shit to part was that I was going to be moving to Washington DC 2 months later.

I still don't understand why we live in the world we do today. We gave up our freedoms because of some jackasses that are dead now, but they still won because we gave up our freedom and we spend all of our time being afraid of jackasses.

I heard most of the Jewish people in the Twin Towers received notification to not go into work that day.

CONSPIRACY.

I was a junior in high school. I have little memory of what happened mostly because we were all sound asleep when everything went down.

I was a freshman *shrug*

Just like ZRH I remember thinking what jackass hit the building. Then when the 2nd one hit we locked down and I was on a plane out within 48hrs.

Of course it should have been double. It's no different that the reverse I saw of that in FL in 2008 when we had a ton of storms roll through back to back. The insurance said they were all separate events and were paid out that way sometimes costing the home owners a lot of money.

You got on a plane 48 hours after? Where were you and what were you doing that you got a plane anywhere?

People in Boston were shopping on Newbury Street like nothing happened. (On that day.)

The phones were toast, even our PBX went out shortly after the first plane hit, I was on a conference call with people at 200 park.

didnt say it was right or wrong, but its a causation.

it wasnt a commercial flight. Or at least not a unchartered one

that night between 5-6pm CST, I was on my way home from picking up my daughter at day care. NO planes in the sky. In chicago, it was eerily quiet. On the way home at a red light I look up out of my sunroof and saw Air Force 1, some other monster jumbo jet and 4 fighter escorts heading east.

it was a 'holy shit, that's the President.' moment.

Well, I'm saying it's wrong. It's a terrible thing. I hate it. I hate fear. I hate that my government is spying on me. I hate that I can't watch my loved one get on a plane. I hate taking my shoes off at the airport. I hate the increasing amount of abuse by the police that the public is having to swallow. I hate that with every law that is passed more of my freedom walks out the door and there is nothing I can do about any of it. I hate that it's going to continue because there is money to be made off of the fears of people.
