9/11?

I will spend the early morning hours in quiet contemplation of what transpired 9 years ago, while drinking my coffee on the front porch and being thankful to be capable of doing so.

At the appropriate hour I will spend 5 minutes in silence to honor all of those who died that day, and each day following it to this day.

From my home I fly the American flag almost every day, 24 hours a day, and it is lit at night.

I am adding 6 more flags to the customary one for tomorrow only, as a special token of the appreciation I hold for the sacrifices the men and women who have died have made; civilian and military.

At some point during the day I will view the video footage that will be played by the media throughout the day. . .

Half mast crosses my mind every damned year!  :yes:

I did so when my neighbor's grandson was KIA'd in Afghanistan last month; from the day I fist heard it to the day after his burial. I'm sure my neighbors wondered why. . .

I'll do it if you will! :yes:

It's my goddaughter's birthday, so we'll be celebrating life in that respect. I know that the events of 9/11 will be on everyone's mind and I wonder if the kid can truly have a happy birthday. She turns 18 today.

We also have a soccer game today. Again, celebrating life and normalcy...we weren't defeated.

My daughter was small when this happened and although she vaguely remembers, I want to spend some time watching some of the coverage with her. We do this every year and it always leads to awesome conversations.

  I not going to do nothing special.  Other than think all of those poor people who hadn't did a damn thing to anyone would be killed by some crazy raghead Muslims killers and corporate greed.

  You say corporate greed Troll, your out out your mind.  Well it was corporate greed.  For years and years the FAA and other people tried to get the airlines to put armor doors on cabins of the planes.  They refused and never did the right thing and put those doors on, because it would cost to much money for each plane.

  Just think all of those people were killed by some crazy Muslims with BOX KNIFES, just opening the cabin doors and walking in and taking the plane over.  In one plane just walking in and cutting the pilot throat.

  Plus it pisses me off way we kiss everybody's ass, afraid we'll hurt some poor Muslim's feelings. :mad: :angry:
