Was at the office in downtown Birmingham. Heard about the first plane hitting and was watching a tv with other people at the VP's assistant desk when the 2nd plane hit. I traveled a lot and had recently watched a show about the first WTC attack in a hotel room not long before. After getting over the shock of the second hit, I just said "Osama bin Laden" . I don't think anyone knew who I was talking about at that moment.

I thought that day and I still believe it today. We should have nuked Afghanistan off the face of the earth after 9/11. Teach them we don't phuck around when we are attacked and if you give comfort to terrorists you will join them in death. Instead, we ended up in a political quaqmire with thousands more soldiers lives sacrificed and nothing gained.
