    I agree with everything said except the scared of flying part, I love being on airplanes!

    Well, after watching a movie with people panicking, flight attendants being killed with blades, and just sheer chaos, its kind of scary. For me, anyway.

    I have school on that day, so I plan to get an education? I have Political & Legal first thing - so we'll probably have a class discussion or something. Also, one minutes silence. It was a tragic day and it should be remembered.

    In all seriousness, I think the best way to honor the victims of 9/11 is to stop acting so ridiculous about the whole thing. All of these ceremonies, all of these stupid things we do to 'remember' the event doesn't really mean anything to anybody. I'll go as far as to say that it's actually disrespectful to treat 9/11 in this manner. But what else can we expect from Americans, anyway? Everything we do is disrespectful.

    In short: Stop it with the nationalism. Stop it with the "God Bless America", and most definetly keep your smurfing pop culture the hell away from 9/11. Then and only then can we begin to treat 9/11 with respect.

    I don't mind all the ceremonies, but I do mind how conveniently the current administration uses the events of September 11th to justify everything. It's sickening how they hold the tragedy over Americans' heads, especially during an election year.

    In politics nothing is sacred.

    I won't be doing anything particularily special. It's definitely a day that I remember, but it's not like I feel any obligation to acknowledge it every year. It's been five years. I don't see the need to dwell on it in such a manner, it's counterproductive.

    Thank you for that. Mom found out from the news....dosen't that suck?

    It's not something I'm going to think on though. I've been on a plane since. :P

    There's a documentary on TV that day. I'll probably watch that.
