I WAS DRIVING IN MY CAR GOING TO WORK,I TURNED ON THE RADIO AN LISTENED TO HOWARD STERNS SHOW, THINKING HE WAS JUST KIDDING( YOU KNOW HOWARD) I THOUGHT THIS CANNOT BE REAL UNTIL I SPOKE TO MY UNCLE IN NY THAT DAY.
SEE MY UNCLE NICKY WAS THE MANAGER FOR THE WORLD TRADE FROM THE BEGINING WHEN THEY WERE BUILT. WHEN HE RETIRED HIS SON TOOK OVER. TILL I HEARD A 80 YR OLD MAN CRY AN WEEP LIKE HE DID THAT WAS WHEN I KNEW IT WAS REAL. I GREW UP IN NY AN NEVER THOUGHT THIS COULD HAPPEN EVER. I JUST HOPE THE AMERICANS BORN HERE REALIZE WHAT WE HAVE AN TO NEVER EVER LET OUR FREEDOM BE TAKEN LIKE THAT EVER BY PEOPLE THAT SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN ALLOWED IN THIS COUNTRY IN THE FIRST PLACE.
