Still raw. I don't dwell on it, and I don't like to. I turned on the radio and it was a musical tribute, with audio of 911 calls from that day, and I had to shut it off pretty quick.

Also, earlier today Mark Steyn gave a most excellent rant about how pathetic it is that 10 years later we still don't have a building built on the site. At one point he mentioned Todd Beemer and "let's roll", and for some reason, when he said "let's roll" was the only good news of the day, I started getting raw emotionally.

So yeah. I'm glad I don't have tv. I don't want to relive it. I still remember. I haven't forgotten. But I don't need to go through that ringer again.

I was listening to a local talk-radio show on WLS-AM in Chicago during my train ride home from work. As the "Roe and Roeper" show closed they played a tribute to 9-11 and I listened.

Thankfully it came on as my stop approached, I couldn't stop the tears as I was stepping off the train in a crowd of people. It took me a few minutes to compose myself before driving home from the train station.
