I will tell my story about how I found out that morning.

The night before, I had gone to the library and checked out Tom Clancy's book, Executive Orders, the one where Jack Ryan takes over the White House after the Capital, etc., are hit by an airplane at the end of the LAST book, Debt of Honor.

So the books opens with him looking at the burning Capital....blah blah blah.......

I go to sleep reading it........and I am dreaming about a woman talking about an explosion and a plane and hitting a building.

Only I'm not dreaming; it's Norah O'Donnell from MSNBC talking about the first plane hitting the north tower on the tv in the next room.

I got up and walked into the bonus room just in time to see what was going on and see the second plane hit.

Oh man, I had finished reading Executive Orders only weeks before 9/11. I know _exactly_ what you mean!

The Fox feed's clock is quickly approaching the impact of Flight 11 (8:46:30 a.m. local time).
