May we never forget those who gave their lives trying to save others, Alder.
By the way, I'm watching a documentary called "The Firefighters' Story" about
the FDNY's involvement and reaction to 9/11 tonight.

It was a Tuesday when it happened, too.

Country: | no kidding guys, I remember getting up after a breif radio clip, rushed to the tV and watched in slo mo the second jet hit the second tower. I was on the phone within minutes to friend in NY watching the whole thing run it's terrible course from his second story apt window. he was literally crying and his wife and her friends were screaming, with much verbal noise around them, they had just seen the first jet smack into the first tower and soon lost some friends within. EVen with all the knowledge of how to consol others there is just NO words at a time like this except to listen.
gusy I would appreciate your prayers today as I dropped off my bride of 33 years with a friend on a long hall east-ward by plane to Tennessee. though this might be the safest day on the planet to fly.......still........... I have never seen the small airport she flew out of so busy in my life, security units were going absolutely nutz and it seemed to rushed in my opinion which creeped me out. So during the day if you would send a few prayers up to the Father on her behalf and her friend traveling with her it would be most appreciated.
we remember - thanks Chris, and thanks for serving
