I thought my day couldn't get any worse because I got a D on a precalculus quiz. We heard about one of the planes, then we turned on CNN and the Pentagon was bombed, and two seconds later, the fire alarm went off (due to a poorly-timed smoke incedent in a chemistry room). People were saying that World War III was going to start and the world was going to end. My history teacher said, "You are going to remember this for the rest of your life. Your GRANDKIDS will ask you where you were and what you were doing when this happened. This truley is history--nothing will be the same." I am feeling that now. All my love to the victims--we are all victims, because our security has been shattered and we feel this pain together. Stepping off the soapbox, Jorie

P.S--To relate this to the Simpsons. . . .I don't think they'll be showing "Homer vs. the City of New York" again.

You could be right. I thought about that today.

What and put more targets up? I think they will make a memorial on the foundations. "Emetib67334" wrote in message news:[email]...

Me too, for some reason. Nobody saw those implosions coming, no sir. No dynamite, too!

May God bless the souls of the deceased and the families of the deceased, and last of all, God bless America the world.

This post on 11 Sep 2001 23:44:04 GMT would probably sound more commanding if Emetib67334 wasn't wearing the Yummy Sushi Pajamas:

It'll be awhile before they show the BoyBand episode.

(Meanwhile, hundreds of Simpsons fans join the navy....)

At least there will be no episodes where the Simpsons visit the Middle East.

I can say without hyperbole that this tragedy is the worst thing to happen to
the U.S.A.

That thought occured to me also today (for some odd reason).

I picked up a large bottle of wine on the way home to help brace me for the terrible sights that I would have to see tonight. I have cried and prayed. I will have nightmares tonight.

Oddly enough, I had all my nightmares about this years ago. I dreamt I was in the top of a really tall building, and the building was burning, or there were explosions happening, then the building collapsed or the top just fell off. It was a recurring nightmare (but not that bad, somehow) that was slightly different each time. Then I stopped having that dream. I'm sure there was no actual connection, but I hadn't thought of those nightmares for years-- until I saw them on TV today.

I didn't want to fall asleep watching the news, so I watched PBS.  It was some
show on global connectivity.  Thankfully, no nightmares.

I was thinking the exact same thing as I lay down to sleep yesterday evening, watching the chaos in Manhattan.

But maybe it's natural for an old Simpsons fan to relate to the Simpsons when pondering about the consequences of this...

To the victims of this massacre, and to their families and friends I would like to let you know: You are in my prayers.
