I was sitting in English class when we started watching it. Freakin horrible day it was. I got home from work around 8:30 earlier tonite and sat in front of the tv and watched something on the History channel about that dreadful day. I couldn't peel myself away from the tv tonite. I feel so bad for those people and still to this day, 7 years later I still get emotional over seeing it. I HATE those freakin' towelheaded hadji's and I pray all of them burn in hell one for what they've done to this awesome country.

i was in my 7th grade science class when it happened. the next few days we did nothing, we just sat there all day talkin and watching the t.v.

i remember that they only person crying in my class that day when it happened was a Bosnian girl. everyone else was just sitting there watching. i was just like WOW! even now when i look back.

Anyway i will not forget, and i hope the boys on the ground over there got to take it out on some towelhead to releave their emotional distress and frustration.

Can't believe it has been seven years. And I didn't realize that today was the 11th until I went to one of my commercial accounts and asked him the date. But that day 7 years ago I was in 11th grade and had just walked into my physics classroom. I was so confused the whole day cause I guess it didn't quite click with me what was happening and that it was all real plus I had never heard of the "twin towers". But needless to say I will never forget. And I honor those firemen and police men who were heros that day and all the men and women (including my father) serving/served in the armed forces. THANK YOU!!! May those who died rest in peace.

i dont remember what i was doing but my roommates got me and showed me and felt a hole in my chest. was the last thing i expected to see. its crazy how some countries dont like our ways, yet theirs seem very messed up. THE U.S.A IS THE ONLY COUNTRY I WANT TO LIVE IN!

I was on my way to the first of 3 sales presentations I had that day. I was listening to Mike and Mike on the radio sitting at the corner of Wilson and 3 mile Rd traveling South when they first mentioned it on the radio. I had never listened to Howard Stern before that but did that day because I know he was in NYC. By the time I got to my first stop they had it on the TV. I watched with them for awhile then just went home to my wife that was home for her birthday. What a strange day that is for us now. It's her birthday but also a very sad day in our history. I will never forget that day and I will never forget what the brave men and women who are oversees are fighting for overthere. Let me send out a great big thank you to everyone on this forum who ever served our country, and there families, either in the millitary or in civil service.

For anyone who lost someone that day my thoughts will always be with you.

John
