Glenn Beck is replaying 9/11 coverage. Apparently MSNBC is rerunning footage this morning (Keith Olberman is deeply saddened).

It’s chilling to hear some of these sounds again. But we need to.

And of course, I first learned about it all here on FR.

Me too. I didn’t even know what the World Trade Center was.

That was a hard day and it’s even harder thinking that anyone more than four years younger than me probably doesn’t have the same gut-wrenching memories. I was 18 and can remember so many details so clearly.

>>The local weather-guy’s latest best-guess track has it
going east of us, smack over Bryan-College Station.

Hmmm....

This morning the predictions have it going even further east, over Galveston and Houston. Here in Austin we may not get anything out of it, or at least not very much.

I grew up right in that area.

Well, I’m on standby and might actually head down there with disaster relief after the storm. The boys could stay with my folks, if they fare ok (in College Station).

Mrs. just emailed me and said the hawk that lives in our nayberhood spent a good deal of time on thedeck railing this morning. It was drivin’ Sam nuts but he didn’t bark until it flew away.

Here’s hopin’ we’re down a chipmunk or two...

Before the rain started, I took Jackson back to his office, but he didn’t want to stay, and spent the morning on our porch. Right now, he’s sacked out on top of the computer desk, while Annie is sequestered in the bedroom.

I was going to put him out when I went to the grocery store, but he’s so sound asleep I’ll just leave him here. Hope I can get him back to the office before they leave this afternoon, otherwise, he’ll have to spend the night in the basement. I’m not having him out in these torrential rainstorms....

We watched all the MSNBC replay.

And been fighting the good fight (or trying to) against the liberals and conspiracy theorists over on the horse forum.

It’s amazing how many people still have a 9/10 attitude in a 9/12 world.

If so, it's the second day in a row. He was waiting on the sidewalk for OB when he came home from work last night. We had him in for a couple of hours during the rainstorm, but then he wanted to go out and ~cat around~. He was on the porch waiting for breakfast this morning, though.

He probably thinks he’s your cat now.

We noticed a pickup truck on our street last night with both a “9/11 was an inside job” and an “NRA Lifetime Member” sticker. Thought it was a little weird to have them on the same vehicle.
