Mygetaway | Wednesday, September 11, 2002 - 12:29 pm     Something I saw today on Oxygen, worth watching if you get a chance.. The Women of Rockaway, and Smile Gone, but ? Only a ½ hr show, but both made me cry without feeling terribly sad afterward, does that make sense? |

Marysafan | Wednesday, September 11, 2002 - 02:34 pm     OMIGOSH! Danzol, I am in the processes of crosstitching a piece called "Tribute to a Fireman" which is the same as the picture you posted only instead there are two angels, one on either side with their heads resting on the fireman's knees. I am stitiching it for a dear friend who is a retired fireman in New Jersey. He volunteered to go into ground zero to help with the cleanup effort. It was going to be for his 50th birthday...but I told him that it is a good thing he is going to be 50 all year because I have been working on it for about four months and am not quite half finished. I have stitched one angel and most of the fireman...I am currently stitching his helmet this morning as I stitched and watched TV, my tears dropped onto the material. When he finally gets this. He will also get my blood, set and tears! |
Danzdol | Wednesday, September 11, 2002 - 02:40 pm     That's nice of you!!!!!! The hair on my arms stood up when I opened this one and I usually delete all pic emails but for some reason I opened this one! |
Marysafan | Wednesday, September 11, 2002 - 02:47 pm     I know exactly how you felt! The moment I laid eyes on it...I knew I just HAD to stitch it. |

Oregonfire | Wednesday, September 11, 2002 - 02:51 pm     It's a wonderful picture, and I just e-mailed it to my sister. I think it communicates perfectly what it means to be in a state of grace. |
Allietex | Wednesday, September 11, 2002 - 09:27 pm     Two shows tonight really caught my attention. One was 60 minutes, an interview with President Bush concerning the events of 9-11. It revealed things we had never been told about the events of that day and why certain decisions were made. I found it facinating and it gave me a real insight into a different side of Bush. The other was a program called simply 9-11. Remember the French film crew (2 brothers) who took the only picture of the plane hitting the first tower? He and his brother followed a probationary fireman through his first few months on the job. Because of this they were on the scene and took the shot of the first plane hitting the first tower. Separated during the hours following the attack, one followed firemen right into the tower lobby and barely escaped with his life. The other wandered for awhile on the street. The scenes they filmed were absolutly unbelievable. Many of the scenes you have seen during the last year was shot by them. I guess I liked these programs because while they did show some of the same old things, they also showed some things that I had not seen. And the shots of the firemen in their house doing the normal things firemen do, like training and cooking on the days before the tragedy were very touching. |
