Wow....this sure brings back alot of memories....

Well....My wife woke up around 5 or 6 and said she saw smoke on the tv...(half asleep mind ya) and said it looked like a mountian blew up...probably Mt. Rainer......

Then the reality hit when we both got up at 8......what she witnessed was not the mountian....but the smoke from the WTC....we quickly got out of bed and into the living room........just watching in horror at this....I was still planning on going out to get a Dream Theater cd LSFNY(Live Scenes From New York) but the store never got them in yet......so i came on the computer to www.dreamtheater.net and also www.mikeportnoy.com/forum ...and thats where i stayed all day....I was getting information faster on my 2 favorite message boards then on tv...

It was hard to explain to my kids what happened....they still dont really comprehend it all....

Yes it has...it makes me more aware of how lucky we are to have freedom and men and women who fight for our freedom.

Its going to be hard to remember anything but the horror....but one thing i would like everyone to remember is the unity that this nation had...a unity "Under GOD"

Yes we did....Yes my feelings have changed...im proud to wave a flag and salute it....and to honor our veterans
