[QUOTE]Originally posted by Siegfried: [QB] I'm choosing to spend today not looking at the politics of what's going on. And that's hard considering Dick Cheney is supposed to be on Rush Limbaugh's radio program today, and George Bush will probably be outlining our need to go to war with Iraq again in his speech from the Statue of Liberty. There'll be time to think about the politic aspects tomorrow; today is for the people. I started today at a memorial service on-campus. I just felt the need to be there in spite of the fact that I am not religious and only know one person who was directly affected by the terrorist attacks. I guess I'm just hoping that whatever little bit of love I can show today might help ease was hate did a year ago. Since the memorial service and moment of silence, I've been at work, but I've been spending more time thinking back a year ago than sifting through r�sum�s and cleaning up the database. I remember that I woke up just as the first plane hit, and I was showering as the second plane hit. It wasn't until I got to my first class that I learned what was happening. The rest of that was spent in front of the television in the cafeteria or in my dorm room. And I still remember how eery it was to not hear any airplanes flying overheard that night. For the past couple weeks, I've been watching the September 11th documentaries on The Learning/Discovery/History Channels. Construction histories of the Pentagon and World Trade Center and their destruction. It never fails to stir up the emotions I experienced last year as I think about the thousands who died.
