[QUOTE="iruhnman630, post: 1023285, member: 14046"] I was commuting 45 minutes each way between school and sleeping at my parents/working preload at the time...it was a morning with no classes scheduled so I was waiting in the building to try and pick up some air work when the rumors started flying, and center manager's went looking for any tv they could tune in...one of our nat'l guard guys showed a nervous excitement about going to war... ....I went home, told my dad to get up because 'I think world war 3 just started.'.. ...almost throwing up when the tower came down... Strange thing was, I didn't want to be home. Despite classes cancelling, and the uncertainty of even being able to make the drive back home, or social chaos breaking out, I went down to school anyway to get some work done. The campus was surreal, especially when at least one of the networks began mentioning our aviation school on the bottom line... The next day, some idiot decided to pull a fire alarm, sending fear and panic through the lecture hall. [/QUOTE]
