We lived 12 miles away from the towers on the other side of the Hudson. We were driving in to work when we heard on the radio that a plane had hit the WTC. I remember saying something to my wife like "these idiots in their Cessnas shouldn't be allowed to fly around downtown". We only found out a little later it wasn't a Cessna and it certainly wasn't an accident. It was a very odd feeling. The 6 of us at work hanging around in the office watching everything unfold on our little TV. I remember we were all speechless while we watched the first tower fall.

My Brother in law was a trader on the floor of the NYSE. I remeber my wife crying uncontrollably trying call him to see if he was still alive. This was in the early days of cell phones and the service was spotty on a good day. He turned out to be fine but spent the night in the exchange.

I could go on for days with this, but it really brings back a lot of sadness. A lot of friends and friends of friends and friends of family were needlessly murdered that day. I lost a cousin who was a PA cop last year who died of cancer they attributed to inhaling all the crap that was in the air while he was doing search and rescue. He was 58 yo.

Ok, that's enough! Happy thoughts!!!

Just got home from working 11pm to 7am. Sister called and said to put the tv on. I sat on the edge of my lazyboy watching everything happened. Was to be working on-site in Brooklyn the Sunday before for 3 weeks, but the job was cancelled at the last minute.
