See, 9/11 didnt really bother me. I thought it sucked for the people of NYC but aside from feeling bad for those people who died and their families I looked at like it was just another holiday because we didnt have school for 2 days. Had it happened in Miami or Ft. Lauderdale I'd probably feel different but being as it was in NYC I didnt feel violated or unsafe. With all the crazy people up there in NYC I'm surprised something like that hadnt happened earlier. In fact, any of you remember when there was an attempt to blow up the world trade center in 1993?
Yep. I remember back in 1993, wondering why we weren't doing "something" about it, and if it would happen again. But then again, where I lived briefly in NYC has been torn down because of the impact of 9/11. When I lived there, we would take people up to the observation deck, and show them our deck (we had some really cool landscaping on our deck) - it was that close.

Plus, the spot where Flight 93 crashed is only about an hour from me. I will NEVER forget 9/11!!

I won't either, but I'll never be afraid of the people who did it, or the cokeheads in power in our own country.
