  i was at work -- a manager in a hospital that is the regional treatment center for one medical specialty...region includes nyc.

  someone came & grabbed me hard by the arm and pulled me into a room, where i saw every single mgr.

  sitting silently watching tv.

  It was a Tuesday and I woke up to get ready for school (Senior year) and my Tv was on NBC which is weird because I always watch VH1 in the mornings ( I don't like watching the news first thing in the morning) the Today show is on and behind I see smoke coming from a building and I'm thinking this is weird why would the Today show be covering a fire? Isin't that what the local tv stations are for?

  At this point I begin to feel that something BIG is happening but I can't really understand it yet so I sit down on my bed and just watch what is happening. My mom comes in my room and tells me to hurry up I had to go to school ( I had an extra class in the morning) so I got up and turned off the tv and went to my class.I wore my green pjs to school.

  As soon as it was over I went to my journalism class and turned on the TV, and then it hit me like a ton of bricks, on this sunny normal day people had lost their lives.

  I went to my other classes and then we realized that this was not an accident as more reports came in we realized that this was an attack. We had televisions in all the classrooms but teachers had been told not to let us watch any news coverage, but we still got our journalism teacher to let us watch the news. We sat in that room with the lights off and watched the destruction.

  I will never forget that day as long a I live.

  Thank you guys for all your kind words.

  I think if they come by my job I'll have my boss "speak" with them and that should make them stay away. My boss is not a small guy( he plays Rugby) and he is pretty loud so that should deter the brothers from coming by.

  I looked up Rays book on e-bay and I think thats where I will get it, I'm just thankful that I have no family in I can't imagine the pain some of you have had to endure because you still have loved ones in.

  Well this is what I do, but be careful as this could backfire on you.

  Walk into his/her office and smile sweetly and then when they least expect it, I kick them.

  I'm not saying this will work for you, but it works for me.

  This is the main reason I became a witness, I wanted God to do something and make things better. I wanted him to cure the sick and make sure every child had food before going to bed at night. I wanted him to step in and fix things.

  But it seems that he like Bush is also on vacation.

  for years i have wanted--no, yearned and longed for-- your approval.

  just a small pat on the back, a quiet smile, or some tiny gesture from you that i'd "done good.

  " but i wonder if i'm not wasting my years in frustration and in endless hoping for what probably is never going to be.

  Talesin,

  My favorite is Bill and I love Bobby so funny. Did you see the epi when Khan Jr. got her period and Hank was taking care of her? That was classic.

  Prophecor,

  Sometimes in the mornings when I'm by myself I too think "What if it is the truth?". And then I remember this board and all of the things that I have read here. I think of everyone that has been so hurt by the society, and then the sadness just wahes over me because I know, I know that this couldn't possibly be the truth. But I always second guess myself and then I'm back at square one.
