11th September 2001
Remembering those who lost their lives on that tragic day...
It happened 9 years ago today but that horrific day will remain with me forever.
I was in the middle of making my granddaughter's 1st birthday cake when the news broke, from then on the cake was forgotten and I was glued to the TV in shock. The cake was never finished, I had lost interest in it.
My heart goes out to all the families who have lost loved ones in the wake of destruction that day and all of the days since.

We were watching the TV when the second plane struck the twin towers, it was like watching a film and didn't seem particularly real. It was a sad time, but life goes on.The madman of a pastor who is threatening to burn the Qu'ran certainly isn't helping matters. I think a Mosque at Ground Zero is a good idea. I think all religions should be represented there.

I was on a flight to Madrid, and on getting there got lots of phone msgs telling me about it and asking if I was ok - I said I'm miles away in Europe
Apparently the person who wants to open that mosque is meant to be a very moderate muslim - if we are gonna have muslims (or any religious people for that matter lol) I would prefer moderate ones to extremest ones!

The true 'madmen' of this tale are the idiots that burned innocent men, women and children alive with aircraft fuel. Calling a spade a spade is not the problem.
I find it odd that the muslims have burned the pastor in effigy and no one finds that hypocritical.
This is just another case of political correctness lunacy. A simple book burning is mild. These kinds of animals should be hunted down, one by one, wherever in the world they attempt to hide.

I think its a shame that on this day of remembrance a moronic pastor has made it into a political argument.
Even the far right like Palin and Beck have condemned this man.

The next day I went into work and I remember we were all just stunned.. I looked at my work mate and just burst into tears..all those innocent people .......
