In Memory

I know terrible events happen every day all around the world. But six years ago today it really hit home for me as so many innocent people lost their lives. It hit me hard and I felt more or less numb for almost a month and here it did not even happen anywhere near me and I did not know anyone that died to my knowledge but it still hurt and still does.

Lets just end this with something to remember the day

You know Queenie, I think of this as the United States but in truth there were people in the towers that were from all over the world. It hit hard here but it was felt far from my corner of the world. Just like the bombings in the subways in and about London. I could only imagine what people were going through and could not help but think it could happen here so easy. We are way less prepared then the UK from something like that.

Thanks LW, it was a tough time and I know it can not be forgotten. I remember being at work and hearing on the radio some sort of ruckus. I had no idea really what was going on so I went out to a TV just a little short of the second plane crashing into the second building. I thought it was a rerun but then it hit me it was not. Then the Pentegon and the plane that crashed in Pensylvania and the grounding of the airplanes. It was so eary that the only planes in the air were some form of military aircraft way up in the sky. I was alive when Kenedy was shot and also when Challengar shuttle exploded. Both events I will never forget. I am sure there are others but I would need to think about it.

Very well done Bryan...a sad day in deed for all of us.

I don't think any of us will forget where we were on the day we heard the news.

Barman,

You are always so in-tune with the feelings of the world.

Are you an empath?

Thank you Nick. I loved your two cartoons. One made me think more than the other and they were both perfect.

Jillie I so know. That day was something else indeed. I suppose it would be just like the people the survive and earthquake or hurricane. Only this one we were not there ... but all of us really were there.

Sign I cheated. I so wanted to take a picture of my flag flying at half mast but there was no wind to speak of. So I went seeking. The picture of flags were taken after the Ford Presidential funeral. Same thing though. I would imagine if you were in the same spot today you would have seen the flags just like that.

Thank you TC. I think part of what helped me come back out of my depression I was in back there were friends. Even though we did not know each other back than, you sure have brightened my day on occasion. You are Super Top Cat, friend to all.

Hey Jake, good to see you visit and thanks. I wanted to say so much but I figured it was best to just say how I felt. It was certainly a tough time. I can not even imagine being the rescue personal.

Empath, why no. But when I was young I swear I could see in the near future. Some would call it deja vue but I grew out of it. Thank you though.
