Man! What the fuck can I say? This fuckin' sucks.
Went out, after gettin' the Shebabe home - afraid of the dust cloud catchin' her in Midtown. Had to yell at her to leave work.
Went to a bar to have a beer a "watch" the news and the people. The people? The exodus was huge - no transportation - I met a guy "walking" to the Bronx. Met a guy "walking" to Yonkers. Shit!
Met two guys, caterer's, who were in building one - the first to go down - they escaped - covered in soot/dust.
My friend Roger was on the trading floor when the first "boom" hit - the guys from the first bombing in '93 went to the windows - the second boom hit and even with the floor not officially closed - everyone orderly left the building. Roger was only a block away when the first tower collapsed. He ran and walked all the way home to the Upper East Side. He was at our wedding.
About one in ten folks I saw on the street were crying.
A lot of very good, normal, working folks died today - fuck me.
This in my mind is much worse than Perarl Harbor - they hit none military targets, civilians - and they hit right on our sacred soil.
They all must die. Fuck'um.
But it was brilliant - hijack fuel ladden plains headed for the West Coast - bullshit the crew - right before finale approach on target - shoot the pilots and fly it yourself. Hit the building mid-way - the learned you can't hit them low in '93 - let the fire weeken the structure and collapse upon itself.
Simple carnage - fuckin' brilliant.
But - all of them must fucking die now.
That is all.
