New York's Sept 11 museum to display hijacker perspective

        

 

I was in DC in May of 02 (I've talked about the two babbling teens I took with me before). We went to the Smithsonian Museum (where, even with the major security, I was able to go in with a jackknife in my purse, us country girls always carry a Swiss Army knife)
and they had a 9-11 display. It was this huge piece of steel from one of the towers, and it was surrounded by things that had been found at the site. Melted cell phones, burned shoes and briefcases...lots of paper. I remember thinking then "For some of those people, this is all that remains of their lives." At that time, we all were pretty sure they'd never be able to ID all the victims. Oh, and there was the huge flag they had hung on the Pentagon as a backdrop. It was a very crowded room, but the only sound you could hear was people crying.

And now they want to build a memorial in Shanksville that is not only crescent shaped, but it points east, towards Mecca. It's a Muslim thing, and in this case, I think it's highly inappropriate. And that's my rag for today!

Tevye, I wished I would have seen that exhibition when I was in DC, but Dear Leader's face was plastered all over the city. The worst part of my trip is when I wanted to punch a kid in the face when we went to Arlington Cemetary. She said "look at all the murderers buried here". It took all I had to keep from going over the seat in that bus and knocking her lights out. 

The Pentagon tour my sister and I took was great. We were with a group of home schoolers and their parents. The kids were so smart about history and when we went into the memorial for the victims at the Pentagon, it was so small, but somber. Every one, including the children wept. I had to walk out I didn't want the hot Marine giving the tour to see me bawl like a baby.

And yes, I forgot to mention that it points towards Mecca

Man I wish I was in DC today.

I wish I was too!

I'll tell you if I had the money and wasn't still sick I would've gone in a NY minute.

[joesamas mama]

BRB Monkeys. I am not skating today, but I am going to run up to the drug store and buy some Nyquil or something to make me feel better. Even the magical cough syrup isn't doing its job today.

Plus it is raining and Josef seems to like to walk in the rain when there is no thunder. 

[Fanny Mae]

Man I wish I was in DC today.

I wish I was too!

I wish I were anywhere but here 

I wonder why FoxNews is not covering this more. 


On the bright side, I guess Susan Rosegen won't be there this time.

Be careful with Nyquil  Zoe does also, walks around doesn't even think that we are in the rain for her to go to the bathroom, she thinks we are sightseeing    She just left with my husband to go get groomed, we couldn't get her in the car, the garbage men were emptying cans and she is scared. Only scared in the house, if we are out walking she is not afraid of them. If someone could explain this dog to me I would be thrilled  Now I will empty the bookcase, and replant a big plant into a giant container

I went to the National Park service's page for this memorial. Interestingly enough, they have removed the "overall" plan/pic, and replaced it with pics of each area. I'm sure this was meant to make us watch their right hand while their left hand flips us the bird. They're not fooling anyone!

I saw my sweetie Tucker Carlson this morning. I must like him I sat through one episode of Dancing With The Stars when he was on. Thankfully he was eliminated right away, another episode I would have been nuts.

I think Fox has some stupid business show that they have to run, I'm sure this afternoon they will be live with it. Prolly have Sean Hannity commentating....watch for FreeRepublic signs! Those people rock, and were a major part of setting this up.

You are right, they will show more this afternoon. Thanks for the link to the cams. I hate to watch CNN!!! I don't want to give them my ratings.

[Tevye]

Also, if you go to CNN.com, they have a ticker across the top where you can watch the whole program live. Man, I love the internet!

Wonder if this will work? Also, when you click on the tea party tag, it will ask if you want to install a flash add-on, just say no. It means that your computer and others are being used to "seed" the program, and we don't want to help CNN!

Well, I'm just a little riled up. Cnn.com is better if you want to watch and hear the speakers, Fox.com is better for crowd shots. Fox TV will have live coverage from 1-3 with Glen Beck hosting....Hoo Rah!!!

I found this recipe the other day while I was looking for the one Bud's Girl asked about.  I ahve to say Yum!  I added some hot pepper flakes to mine but I am sure it is good without them

Bacon Cornbread

6 Slices bacon roughly chopped
2c yellow cornmeal
1 c flour
3 TBSP sugar
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp salt
4 eggs
2 c milk
1c cheese (cheddar or Monterey jack)

In a cast iron skillet fry bacon chunks.  fry until crisp, remove from pan.  Reserve remaining bacon grease.  In a bowl mix all dry ingredients.  In another bowl mix milk and eggs.  Pour wet into dry bowl and mix with a wooden spoon.  Add bacon into batter (this is where I also added pepper flakes and chives)  Brush the cast iron pan with bacon grease.  Pour in batter and bake for 25 min at 375.  Remove from oven, sprinkle cheese on top, put under broiler until cheese is melted.  Serve.

It is pouring No Rose and he wants to keep walking. Poor Zoe, being scared. I wish someone could explain her and Josef too!

Why is that they keep walking in the rain, sniffing  And then when I get to the garage I have to dry her all off with a towel and look out if I touch her feet the wrong way  I can't believe I have all my fingers left.  Northern Rose that recipe for bacon cornbread looks great
