Here's as good a spot as any to put in my tribute to David Prium, who worked in the investment industry and perished in the World Trade Center.

I knew him as a college student who lived on my wing in the dorm, and we sat together in Poli Sci class. He was a big farm kid and football player, not the kid you'd expect to move out to New York City. He was quiet and gentle, always ready to help. The kid you'd want to marry your daughter.

He's only one of many, but it helps me to remember by focusing on the one that I knew personally.

Sad ... sorry for your loss. The thousands of stories about people lost that day ... it's monumental.

PRAYERS UP.

God Bless your friend, cook!
