September 11

Sorry, not Apple related, But...

The second anniversary of the day that truly changed the world is here.

I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say that our American buddies, the people who died, the ones who survived and the relatives who lost loved ones will be in our thoughts today.

Thanks, Jason.

I don't know what else to say.. It feels like it was just a nightmare, but it all happened.. ::Sigh::

Let's not forget that the attack also triggered much worse things for all the world. Yes, let's have a moment for the fallen ones of Sep. 11, 2001. But let's also have a moment for the fallen ones in the two wars that the USA have started since. It doesn't look like he's done yet, so we might as well include the future victims in our prayers. The world didn't have a good start into the new century. Let's pray for peace.

To all those who fell victam to those attacks on 9/11/01, and those who died serving in fighting for peace, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your families.

Also, a thank you to the U.S.men and women who are still fighting and to our overseas friends who are sticking by our side. THANK YOU!

I believe it was Bill Mahr who coined this phrase in his book "When you ride alone, you ride with Bin Laden":

"The world didn't change. We just joined it."

Also remember that September 11 thirty years ago meant the end of the democratic republic of Chile and the start of the killing and torturing of thousands of Chileans.
All this senseless killing: we are just 90 years max on this world. You can do better with your life.
When will we learn that we harvest what we did sow..? The Bible warns us...

And of course... I feel deeply sorry for all victims and their families.

I must be getting older and mellowing out, because 6 months ago I would have taken the above apart point by point and started a massively long thread with each side pitted against each other throwing out insults and other related barbs...

Now I just sit back and say to myself (in my best Ronald Reagan -esque voice), "Ah fryke... there you go again...
