Re: I Will Never Forget

I was living in Texas at the time, managing a Swimming Pool service business. My Wife had just returned from Manhattan after a seminar a mere three days before September 11th.

I was in a meeting that morning. The meeting wasn't going well and some arguing was starting to occur among the employees. I went into the main foyer of the office to get some paperwork. The TAODAY show was on. I caught a glimpse of the fire and building and the whole scene. Quickly gathered what was going on and shuffled back to the meeting. I immediate told the people I work with what was going on and that we should stop the meeting. The main owner was NOT going to stop the meeting. He continued.

After a few minutes, he got up to get some paperwork in the main room. He came back in white as a ghost. "They've hit the freaking Pentagon...it's a terrorist attack."

We all went home to be with our families...
