Description

You thought it was gone, But the fire goes on. And i thought you knew me... I told you before, 'til i settle the score, That i'll never run free... I have enough pain and anger in my brain, To last many lifetimes. Yet still it grows, and the more that it shows, I won't have peace of mind... The fire, the fire still burns... -Dee Snider, 1985 I agonized long and hard over what to write to go with this post. Lacking words of my own I settled on this old Twisted Sister song, which perfectly describes how I felt then and still feel. It annoys me to no end that those who masterminded this horrendous evil sit cozy and comfy in a cave in Pakistan while our troops pay the ultimate price thousands of miles away and "Big Oil" gets bigger, fatter and more glutinous... ...Some need to be reminded, others can never forget... This image is dedicated to everybody who lost a loved one on September 11th 2001...

I couldn't agree more. Both the song and your own words, they say it so much better than I ever could. Magnificent tribute.

I saw some images today at church about that horrible day four years ago. Those pictures brought tears to my eye. But the Lord will watch over us in our best of times and our worst of times. Those evil people who did that to our nation have already been judged. And we will go on because "We are one nation under God with liberty and 'justice' for all"

It is a day we all will never forget. Every country has his victimes, you have all this inicent people who died on the 9/11 and we in Europe all this inocent woman and children who died in the first and second WW, we should also not forget them. Everybody is talking about the man who died in the war, but what is with this woman and children, never ever someone said a word about them!! We should things like that never forget!!!!! Excellent work!!!
