Here I sit...
« on: September 13, 2001, 07:32:00 PM »
Here I sit safe and sound with my wife watch my little daughter ga-ga and goo-goo on the floor.  Watching the event coverage on TV and feeling totally hopeless and well......useless!

I know it is not in my place to run there and try to help, for someone like me would just get in the way.  I know I can give blood and give to the United Way to help the victims, but I've always been someone for physical action and seeing the footage of the rescue workers crawling around wreckage looking for survivors make me feel like no matter what I do, here safe and secure, cannot be enough.

Once again, I know it is not in my place, but I guess I wish I could just do more.

My thoughts and best wishes are with the victims families and rescuers on a continuous basis and I truely believe everyone of those rescue people deserve this counties utmost thanks and appriciation.

So here I sit..... :(

Powell: Really Rock, well I'd like to meet him.
Rock:  No ya wouldn't.

Your family is important. Be with them. Reassure them. Love them.

I wish I were home. I miss my family.
