Do You Know What Happened on September 11?
3,000 us citizens.
September 11, 2000: I can't remember. Can you?
Those terrorists took more than our fathers and sisters. More than our brave firemen and policemen. They took our history. They took away every september 11 that came before 2001. The births, the deaths, celebrations, and holidays. Events, important or not, now forgotten.
Well I'd like to take a little time now to bring back our history by remembering all those forgotten september 11 events.

Can you remember what you were doing
On the most famous Sept.11?
I was sitting at home with three of my kids. I walked into the living room and saw the tv. I didn't understand what I was seeing. When I realized what had happened I dropped to my knees and started crying.
Before this happened, I would hear people talk about the day Kennedy was shot. How they could remember exactly what they were doing, like it was yesterday. I never believed them. Now I do, of course.
