AS I SAID, I LOST A FRIEND IN THE COLLAPSE OF TOWER 2 THIS MORNING. I HAVE RESPECT AND I UNDERSTAND THE SERIOUSNESS OF THE MOMENT. BUT I DO THINK IT IS COOL THAT WE ARE EXPERIENCING HISTORY. I MEAN, TAKE A STEP BACK FROM THE MOMENT AND THINK ABOUT WHAT WILL BE GOING THROUGH YOUR HEAD YEARS FROM NOW. ITS SAD TIMES, TRUE. BUT ITS INTERESTING TIMES. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WILL BE GOING DOWN IN THE HISTORY BOOKS. THIS WILL BE TALKED ABOUT FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS EASILY AND WE ARE LIVING IT. I DONT FIND THAT COOL IN A "RIGHT ON, PEOPLE ARE DYING ALL AROUND AND IM LIVING TO TELL THE TALE" WAY. I THINK ITS COOL IN A "THINGS ARE GOING ON THAT ARE GOING TO AFFECT THE FUTURE FOR YEARS TO COME AND IM WATCHING IT HAPPEN" KINDA COOL. ONCE AGAIN, I DONT THINK THE DEATH, MURDER, AND PAIN IS COOL. IM SAD THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED, BUT I DO THINK ITS INTERESTING TO THINK THAT WE ARE A PART OF HISTORY.
