Just thought I would say something about 911. In my lifetime, it remains the most horrible thing to happen to America. Yet there as such unity afterwards. I still remember it well. I was at the house in Texas, unemployed at the time, and woke up just in time to see the announcement of the first  plane hit the towers. At the time they thought it was an accident, then the second plane hit. Tee came home early as they feared attacks in other cities.I remember the terrible sinking feeling that day. I remember the eeriness of no planes in the sky in the days that followed. I remember the rites our kindred did after the attacks, and the moving prayer David Morehead gave. I think we should all pour some mead in honor of the lost and fallen that day.

Yes ...I was watching the t.v. in my company's break room looking at the damage of the first impact and hearing commentary when the second plane flew in as we were watching in real time ... it was so f'ed up. My boss gave us a credit card to fill up all our gas tanks in case we had to evacuate to somewere safe. I was very pissed off that night locked and loaded and ready for all out war.I will never forget the ride home from work..it was pouring down rain and I saw a car going  with a guy with no shirt on sitting in the passenger window holding up an American flag .....hail the fallen .
