I wonder what that day was like for Frank. I was out on comp awaiting surgery and had to run, LOL, I mean hobble down to a Dr in Ft Lauderdale for a surgical consult. My wife and our newborn daughter (now 8) were home with me. My wife woke me up when the first plane hit. It's still surreal to this day.
I think this is a good idea for a thread. Now that we're approaching 10 years after. How about it, anyone want to start a where were you thread? | |

I think your idea of a "where were you" thread is a good one. We did just pass the 8 year mark and we don't have to wait for 10 years..
When it has been 10 years it will actually be 9/11/11, double trouble I hope not! Spooky if you ask me...Happy Halloween!
