I was in Calgary in bed just waking when i was told about the tower by the time i was dressed to go to work the second tower was hit. The trading markets shut down. I phoned into work to tell them i not going in to work today due to the building i was working in. To my amazement i could not believing what i was watching and seeing when the towers collapse it was unreal and very eery and extremely sad knowing people were caught in the tower. Words would never adequately describe the emptiness that i felt and the hopelessness.
May God Bless the families that suffered their loss that day, and all the days that were to come. May God's Grace be put upon them each and everyday of their lives.

I was in NJ ... my daughter was at school ... I was on the phone with the library... trying to get them to donate some of their old stands with wheels they use taking books back and forth from the shelves and returns ...for the schools library for the children... did not have the tv on ... but got another call from a friend telling me to turn on the tv... and told the library I would call again ... they understood ... well op like u had fighter jets come over the house... ask my friend was she going to go pick up her kids from school. thinking I was going to being all those jets where flying around ... called school asked how every one was ... I lived near a lot of bases + their where a lot of the young kids going to that school also that lived on base ... but they said it was being handled ... I said ok I would call back soon ... me thinking soon the school might go to lock down and I either wanted my daughter or wanted to be their with the kids... well I called back said I would like to pick up my daughter and I new the office ladies... I was always volunteer when I could in between work and all ... and the lady in the office whispered to me... they did not have the security procedures in place yet... being the kids just got back to school... so I said will be right down lol to pick my daughter up and asked if they wanted me to stay and help ... they said know ... I was only minuets from the school got there is a flash ... so I met my daughters teacher in the hall bringing my daughter up to the office ... and she kinda yelled at me . nxt time if i could give a bit of notice would be nice ... realizing her teacher did not know what was happening ... so I said I would do that and thanked her ... thinking was not my job to tell her what was going on ... they never told the teachers ... and a lot of those kids had parents and loved ones in most of these places on 911...well as I was leaving so many thought it best to pick their children up ... so many where rushing in ... felt bad for those kids going home to the bases ... they had MPs on their buses going home...must have scared ...these young children ... I got home my daughter ran off to play as I watch the rest of the chaos that was happening ... had friends in NY... friends of friends at the capital ... heard later they died ... I believe it was a gut renshing day for all Americans... Will Never Forget ...

Yelling at the TV News Anchor man for trying to emulate the War of the Worlds skit. I thought nobody is going to believe this crap. Although the images looked very real. I changed the channel so I could watch some real news before work. But there it was again. I turned channel after channel and just stood there starring at the TV in shock and awe.

Biology class watching the tv

I'm not a hero. I followed orders and did my job to the best of my abilities.

Then the second plane hit...

Seems to be some close games that shouldn't have been close. Fun to watch though.

Was happy to see the Razorbacks pull off that win! Blocking that game winning field goal to push OT! Makes the game fun to watch!!!
