Wow
This is such an interesting and important story from the day of September 11, 2001. I can’t imagine how much this man has gone through.
I have vague memories of what flying, airports, and check-in were like pre-9/11, but I do remember that there was so much less security. Fewer checks, fewer rules, and much more “looseness” in everything. That day was something that pre-9/11 travelers probably never even conceived of; there was no reason for this man to be suspicious of anything he saw that day.
It’s so wild what that day must have done to him just because he was doing his job. I hope he is doing better now.
Remembering
This is a really, really well-done film about September 11th.
I can’t believe this was 23 years ago.
A Few Days Late But…
This is really interesting.
I know it’s been 20+ years, but I can still very distinctly remember how that morning unfolded and how all we did during that whole week in school was watch the news.
Wow
You can see what various channels were broadcasting the morning of 9/11 – before, during, and after the attacks. It’s so wild how this all unfolded and how everyone reacted.
How quickly and drastically things changed that day.
20 Years
Can you believe it’s been 20 years since September 11, 2001? I can’t decide if it seems like it’s been longer than that or shorter than that, but COVID has warped all sense of time to me, so who even knows.
I was in 8th grade when that happened. We spent that whole day (whole week, actually) not doing anything in school except watching the news. It was wild.
Anyway. Just putting the passage of time into perspective.
