Who knew it would give TV producers and movie execs an excuse to make every fictional attack the work of neo-nazi domestic terrorists?
I was here in Switzerland. I remember most; all the talk and discussion about the other bombs found. Interviews with people talking about the bombs. Etc.
Then from one moment to the next it was a war crazed John Rambo type, his side kick Pancho, and of course the third suspect.
try 1966.....now that predates penicillin doesn't it? well maybe not.
I was sitting in my apartment on 144th and Penn in Oklahoma City. I was trying to finish a long lab report which was due for Industrial Microbiology class.
I distinctly remember the blast as it rattled my apartment. I origininally thought it was a sonic boom from Tinker AFB. However, something told me to turn on my scanner. I just sat there in shock as I heard what was happening. I even heard the BOLO go out for the middle eastern males.
Wow. Time passes, but the memories still remain.
lets throw in that middle eastern connection while where at it. I do believe in that coverup.
Just damn.
If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...
I'd not gone into work that morning, as I had something like an 8:30 or 9 am (west coast) appointment for my annual physical...therefore, I had the TV on and was able to catch much of the "breaking news" business.
I was at work talking on the phone with my wife, when she told me it felt like something just crashed into our house. After flipping on a radio and hearing of an explosion downtown, I decided to call my mom to see if she knew what was happening. When she didn't answer, I turned on the TV and saw that it was her building and knew immediately in my spirit that she was gone.
It's hard to believe she has been gone for 11 years now. The hardest part has always been my kids growing up without their "Grammy" and the change it caused in my dad. Unfortunately, he looked to "stuff" (riches, houses, travel, etc...) to fill the hole left in his heart, instead of God and his family.
My brother had just died the month before and I was in my car, coming home from my sister-in-law's after having visited her and the kids in Rochester, N.Y. for a few days. I was listening to the radio when I first heard the reports.
Diito that exactly.
We had just moved into an apartment in Oklahoma City, and were unpacking our stuff, with no radio or television hooked up. We found out there had been a bombing when our relatives started calling to found out whether we'd been blown up. We were about 6 miles from the bomb site.
I was at work in a small company in the Philly suburbs. There was a TV upstairs. Both I and one of the owners had lived in OKC. When we heard the news, we both sat numbly watching the TV for two hours, saying very little.
I've NEVER... seen a convicted murderer executed so quickly either.
PRayers for you and your family.
God bless you!
Yes. It CAN be done. ;)
I was busy getting pulled over by a special weapons team at Oak Ridge National Lab. When you're driving your mail truck towards the Robotics Research Facility, and suddenly find armored vehicles in front of you and behind you, along with heavily armed and nervous men - you realize something bad has happened.
Pearl Harbor, HI on excercises (RIMPAC, I think)
I was working on a roof in the city of Buffalo..
Bill Clinton......."we will not tolerate"............yeah right bottom feeder.
