Remembering 911

On Monday is the fifth Anniversary that our country was savagely attacked the united hearts of our nation cried out in pain.. Here are a few pix that I chose out of the more than 500 I have on file. Feel free to post your pix, your memories, where you were and what you were doing “that day” and perhaps how this has impacted your life.

The man was a life force. Extremely passionate about life; what he did, his family, his friends, and especially animals.

Yeah, the two that hit the WTC's left boston. The Pru is one of the two big ones in Boston.

I left around noon, the city seemed deserted. The ride out the mass pike was free (toll road) because the toll booths were abandoned, at least the one I went to.

At 3 in the afternoon, the liquor stores were running out of beer. They were about the only businesses open in my area.

Did not realize so much of the country just folded up.. I lived in Waltham many years ago.. it NEVER was slow or empty.. the wildest drivers I had ever experienced.

It must have been eerie to be on the highways that were empty

Yay!!

So guess what? Today, at work, when Kathy walked in, the VERY first thing she said was, "When does Philip get off?"

And I thought I was getting along with her better!

No, that was when she got there first thing, and I had already been working for several hours. The implication was clearly "I hope he gets off so I won't have to see him" attitude. She seemed like she was in a real bad mood today. I stayed away!

But then you said, "And I thought I was getting along with her better!"

Remember our talk about toxic personalities?

Tsk tsk tsk.

You have much to learn, my padawan learner....

Finished doing homework for the night.

One of my classes has me reading Orwell's 1984--and in a few weeks the Church Committee report has to be read...
