I share an exact birthdate with Ludacris! I'm so gettin crunk tonite! Splash waterfalls beeyotch!
I'll admit to not looking closely enough at the little dots, but when I saw the first 10 comments in this thread I was proud of Monkeyfilter for somberly acknowledging the anniversary of a horrific event without devolving into cynical commentary of what may have come after. Now I feel kinda stupid for thinking that.
Wow, I'm glad I wasn't born on 8/06 or 8/09, r88, sheesh.
That was fantastic, Pallas
I would agree with you, rocket88, if it were not for the passion with which I hate those damn dots.
From the FPP, right thru and including rocket88's comments - it's the most succint summary of 9/11 in all of its tragic, ironic, stupid, dramatic ...human dimensions. Thank you monkeys.
I covered stupid.
I always do.
Well, there is really nothing more dangerous that stupid being left uncovered. Someone could get hurt.
Cheers, Abs! Thought it was a good way to mark the day.

What SB said. Laughter and tears are like salt and pepper. They mix well, and the combination makes the dish more flavorful than one or the other.
I think I was just plain too busy yesterday to reflect... it suddenly hit me last night as I was out for a stroll with the kids and saw the two beams of light going upwards as far as I could see...
Ya know folks, we don't quite realize how much we, as individuals, impact others that we come into contact with... The indiduals I knew that went down with those buildings that day - - their spirits continue to "live" on through others...
A dot just doesn't suit me for the feelings I still fight with inside
