Dammit!

Today I wasn't going ot mention the links below. I didn't want to make this political.

But just now I turned on the radio and they used brief excerpts of news reports from 9-11-01 as a lead-in to the local talk show. Those sounds still chill me, make my stomach turn and my hair stand on end... they still make me cry. Because I'm the kind of girl who cries when anger becomes overwhelming, and those sounds are still a sudden blast of fuel to that pilot light of righteous anger in my soul.

I keep thinking the heat of memory will be a little cooler each year, but no, it isn't.

Apparently others don't have the same reaction. But then again, to them it was just a "tragedy..." almost an accident... a crime.
