I sat at school and watched the second tower fall 
the moment it happened. I still hear Dan Rather 
saying "There are no words for this" and just 
silence as it fell. I had been in shock up until 
that moment, and I just started sobbing. My best 
friend had to keep herself from wretching. 

I remember watching as they switched coverage to 
LA. Family members, friends,and lovers were all 
arriving at the airport to pick up people on the 
flights that had been hijacked. Due to the time 
difference, it was early morning. None of them 
knew that everyone was dead.

And I remember hearing one thing that sent ice 
through my veins. At about 3:00 PM they were 
talking about public schools finally being let 
out in NYC, and saying that they would need to 
provide care for those children whose 
parents "would not be coming to pick them up". 
Dear god. I can't even imagine going to school, 
and then waiting for my parents who never come, 
and learning in that way. That's just horrible.

I don't know about you guys, but this is just 
messed up.

P.S. My mom always said "Baby, when you don't 
laugh, you cry." In light of that, here's an 
amusing comment to help lift the modd a bit on 
the subject of George W that my friend said. We 
all know it's true.

"He's shaking his 'World Disaster' Magic-8 ball 
and pissing himself as we speak."
