Please stay tuned for the upcoming "Cry Fest" starring Oprah, and certain guests I'm sure, which will appear well in advance of the Dec. date of her magazine release so as to ensure increased sales.
A little late to see the show wasn't she? With her oozing sympathies always so readily apparent it seems like she would have been one of the first to hustle on down there. Being on such good terms with so many of the movers and shakers in society and all.

Oprah cries at the drop of a hat. Her emotions are all for show.

We don't want her to shake too much. There still are some buildings standing in New York.

Well at least Oprah mirrored every one else who has seen the site in person. Everyone it profoundly emotionally moved and most say they are at a loss for words to describe the scene. Everyone, that is, except for chillery.

though you may have a point re 'celebrity tours',
your last comment, when viewed alongside your nick,
makes one even more curious when seeing this:

what you say is sooooo true.
here's a repost of mine from 1 october.


while my wife and her girlfriend went to a yankees game,
i took my digicam for a walk in lower manhattan.

part of me truly became a new yorker that day.

Paying Respects in NYC -- 30 September '01

these photos can only hint at the devastation....

Now that she's seen Islam in action, is she still going go on preaching about "peaceful Muslims?"

Amen,
Tell it like it is Piquaboy. Her an her psychic-demonic friends cry whenever a camera is nearby, just like Bubba.

You chose the wrong screen name. It should be AllSnarles.

Fortunately, you disruptor types tend not to stay around long.
