We're all so very proud of you.

I'll be doing whatever I feel is appropriate in light of the anniversary, and I won't be judging others for doing what they feel is appropriate.

Sometimes it takes pain to harden our resolve. Just hoping we use intelligence and wisdom in our actions to get all the bastards responsible including those that would harbor them as the President once said.

I'll watch the Towers fall again, as many times as it takes to help me realize why we're throwing our weight around in the Middle East.

Looks like whatever you plan to do, at least you won't be bothered by telemarketers.  


Telemarketing industry falling silent on Sept. 11

(09-09) 21:25 PDT OMAHA, Neb. (AP) --

Recognizing that many Americans won't be in the mood for getting sales calls, many of the nation's telemarketers plan to take the day off Wednesday.

I'll be sitting in the same office, at the same desk..probably working on the same set of financial statements  ...that I was on 9/11.

I will say a few silent prayers and send my thoughts out to those who suffered and lost that day.

Strong endorsement for "We Were Soldiers" here.  I watched it with my wife and we both got choked up.  It'll really get you thinking about a lot of things, particularly in the context of modern political events.  I plan to buy it the next time my wife places her bulk order with Columbia House.

I've had a flag flying every day since 9/11/01.  First it was my colonial flag with the 13 stripes (the only one I had on hand and I couldn't find a modern one until months later), then a modern flag, and now a flag and a door decoration with a star on it.  I'm the only one on my block still flying an American flag.

Tomorrow morning I'm going to go for a morning jog, wearing my USA running suit, and cheer the Bayshore Patriots as they assemble for a peaceful display of American unity.

Then its back to work, trying to restore the American economy.

Later that day, I'll be donating my blood, just like I did a year ago.

Go with the local anesthetic.  Don't get gassed.  You'll recover quicker from the Novacaine, though it'll be a bit distressing to see your tooth coming out of your mouth.  I've had 4 wisdom teeth pulled, all at the same time.  Think of it as a test of your manhood.  The gas actually is more uncomfortable long-term because of the lingering effects, plus you'll have the same amount of blood and pain afterwards.

Me...restock our emergency food, water and medicine (30 days supply of each) as I've done each year for the last 12 years.  I'm using 9/11 as a reminder date.  

Good idea.  Its hurricane season, ya know!

Yep! Natural diasasters.  I live 25 miles from a Volcano, and 12 miles from a fault line about the size of the San Andreas fault line...you can never be too prepared!

I also keep my Ford Truck with duel tanks filled up, about every 2 months I drive it and burn the fuel up, then re-fill it.  This would give me about 30 days of Generator fuel in case of an emergency, enough to run 6 hours of electricity a day.
