Her early appointment said, "Have you heard the news?" It all went downhill from there. I was almost finished with my private pilot training and about to schedule my check ride with an FAA approved examiner. But that had to wait. I am still angry about the loss of life. The horrible loss of life. To this day, I just don't get how little babies can be born of a woman, only to grow up and take the lives of their fellow human beings. I don't get that. At all.<BR/><BR/>I remember exactly where I was.<BR/><BR/>And I know exactly where I am on that.Jacobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13649218320462858549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31214380.post-47694780635795719592007-09-11T22:15:00.000-04:002007-09-11T22:15:00.000-04:00I too remember exactly where I was.

My friend had the same kind of airport experience, though - no one knew what was going on. Lots of confusion, especially since no one told them why their plane had landed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31214380.post-20251808975505252012007-09-11T20:51:00.000-04:002007-09-11T20:51:00.000-04:00I got off the bus downtown and walked by the Feder...I got off the bus downtown and walked by the Federal Building ... which was surrounded by security guards and police. I got to work, and Scott called me and told me what had happened (we're three hours behind NYC). The rest of the day everyone spent in shock, watching the television the company had set up in the common areas. I remember going home and how silent it was without planes landing over our house.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08564827704670105620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31214380.post-86781473885835288882007-09-11T20:11:00.000-04:002007-09-11T20:11:00.000-04:00It's hard to believe it was six years ago.

You couldn't get on any news website for most of the day after it happened.
