At Home The day the world stood still...

Notice the gap between 11 o clock and 6 o clock.

I can't tell what the first 9/11 post was since the posts are sorted by post date, not start date.

A sad sad day it was....

To be honest, not a day goes by where I haven't thought about that day.

My mothers birthday also, will never be the same.

and eerily, I swear, everytime I look at the clock it is 11 minutes past 9.

We start with Osama, then work our way up to Sadamm. I say we deliver some "guided justice".

After the first tower was hit, I popped in a blank VHS tape and started channel-hopping the stations and CNN for a few hours.

Watching events unfold live, it's eery how little we knew and how naive we were. Watching the towers fall live is quite sobering.

Toad, I still remember the scenes with the people jumping out. Fox was told to stop showing them, they were to disturbing.

Props to all those who are serving in the US Military and our allies.

Asked if I "was sure" I wanted to join the military after 9/11, my response was, it strengthened my resolve to join - and it did. For not only the people that died but their families.....I remember watching a show that was telling about a woman and her 5 or so kids...her husband was a firefighter who died on 9/11. His fellow firefighters would take turns shopping for her and helped her out with daily chores every day of the week. Just about brought tears to my eyes. At the exact same time it really pissed me off that humans would be capable of causing such horror and pain.

By far the best live performance I've ever seen in my life was U2's Superbowl performance with all the names of those who died scrolling on a giant projector screen behind them.

I remember exactly what I was doing at work when we were told the news. This was about 2pm UK time, we couldn't believe it at first, then people started coming in confirming what they had seen on TV.

That was a truly awful day.

Although Bono's insewn American flag under his sweaty armpit could be debated.
