Silly you, this behavior of the deficient is easily predictable.
My reaction was mostly to go into strategic and tactical modes. As soon as the 2nd plane hit I thought " weel, its war". My second thought "Boy, all the whatevers that are involved with this have screwed the hell out of themselves, the USA will be fighting them as a top priority for a generation".
Make no mistake, Europe or others, the war on terroism will, more than any other factor, define USA policy and interest for a long forseeable future; adapt to that reality.

A positive anniversary on 9/11

Taken from last week's Sunday Times:

--------------------------------------

On Thursday, Northern Ireland will mark its own 9/11 anniversary. It will mark the first year, since records began in 1981, in which the police have not fired a plastic bullet. The last baton rounds were fired during rioting in north Belfast on September 11th, 2002. You have to go back 14 years - August 1989 - since the last person was killed by a plastic bullet: Seamus Duffy, 15, was shot in the chest by the RUC in disputed circumstances. Since then 36,000 baton rounds have been fired without serious mishap and they are likely to be retained for the forseeable future.

-------------------------------------

Good news. It gives you an idea about how quiet it's been in Northern Ireland this past year. Hopefully, we can say the same thing again next year.

The events of Sept. 11, 2001 made me angry, and made me feel vulnerable. It's a day I'll never forget.
But in 2003 and ultimately, it's just a date on the calendar.

This may sound crass, but life goes on.
I won't lie -- I'll be on a golf course.

Does anyone know who these people are: Nirit Ben-Ari, an Israeli peace activist; Omar Badar, a Palestinian peace activist? There is going to be a panel discussion here on the topic "Two Years Later: What Has Changed" featuring these two and I was curious if it would be worth my time going.

That's what driving me fvcking crazy -- according to the properties of my graphic I want, it's 8,000 bytes -- I saw the size requirements on the Editting Panel and yet, this is not working??

It's in JPEG format too.

But the French didn't, and ~11,000 people died at least partially attributable to the heat. Thus, .

I remember 9/11 as if it was yesterday. About half-way in my Biology class the pricipal raced in and told us to turn on the TV. I was horrified when the first tower collapsed just 5 minustes after turning on the TV. In my class horror was turning to anger, the conservatives were screaming "NUKE MECCA!"

2 years on, It seems that us liberals are full of anger for the lies of Bush and how he used 9/11 to violate the constitution and as an excuse for his pet war in Iraq he wanted from day 1 of his presidency.

before we had air conditioning we did not have old people living here.
