Glad to hear that your mom's OK. are you holding up good, too? I'll let everyone know if I hear from Nave. Left message on machine, e-mail, and messages on the board.
Thanks. I'm still kind of in a state of shock. Just went to fill up my SUV. Gas prices across the street are $3.50 a gal. Geez! No more 87 octane at the station I just came from. Luckily it's still $1.34. I'm scared to go to sleep. Both kids are in the bed with me. I'm just praying....hopefully I'll pray myself to sleep.
Here in Cleveland, we've been in a state of emergency since 11:30 this morning. The mayor had everyone downtown evacuated and all government buildings and public schools closed. It is reported that the Coast Guard will be on high alert tonight, patroling Lake Erie as well as around all major cities on the Great Lakes, Buffalo, Detroit, Chicago, etc. My prayers go out to everyone and hope that all sleep tight. God bless!
Good Evening Everyone, Just checking in, from Pittsburgh PA here, not far from Shakerville in Sommerset County PA. I would like to express my heart felt prayers to all of you that may have been affected by this tragic event, and for the thousands of people I don't know. I think the angels were very busy today escorting those taken to the arms of the father. Who is waiting to cradle them in his arms of love.
yup - I remember the earthquake - and I clearly remember the footage of the card driving across the bridge at record speed and then dropping down to the other bottom level. of course I remember and still get nausaus when thinking about the Cypress. I worked in San Ramon a while - wonder if we were cube mates?> LOL cya dogman
Roni - Prayers Be with you... I am very sorry - lets me know when everyone is accounted for. Glad you are OK. best - dog
let us know mom I cannot imagine this - but now I am to the anger stage - someone really hurt us - our country - our heart and soul. A piece of our heart was ripped out today - all americans are in mourning. Mourning is fine - but Bush obviously - with COLIN POWELL'S HELP - is ready to kick ass. AND WE SHOULD! Jeez , this should not have happened. This should not have happened... on guard in SF - dogman
glad you're OK MP. Mayor Brown said that basically, they figure that downtown San Francisco or the Golden Gate Bridge would be very likely targets. Imagine no one on Fishermans Wharf. I am still stunned. That is the best word that represents how I feel. c YA dogman
First, let me say how relieved I am to hear from those of you who have heard from loved ones. I am praying for all of those who have family and friends there as I am for all involved. Momof3-my heart is with you, my friend! Waiting to hear from our friends online is hard. I just got hooked up and I couldnt' wait to check in...hope we hear from everyone soon! As a teacher, I spent the day listening to 8th graders fears of the end of the world...poor kids! Love to all!
Quiet But Very Eeery....River Hi bud> Hey I am sitting at my desk overlooking the City skyline, got a fire going - hoping nothing bad happens again to anyone - but also know LA and SF are both locked down - not a CURFEW - but HIGHLY RECOMMENDED people have their butts home and safe. I do not want to be out! I wish I were having an affair and my wife would be out here with me - you know. Be careful - somethings up in this country - something EVIL. Stay safe skyler - you talked to your family? glad youre OK. c ya dogman
WAY BACK IN THE 1960'S...we had "DUCK AND COVER" drills...maybe they will come back... DECEMBER 7, 1941 SEPTEMBER 11, 2001
I did those George - glad you are ok in Ft Collins. Can't believe these gas prices are going up - just wait a day to buy gas and the panic will be less. c ya be safe - dogman
NanaC That's another dimesion of horror altogether - at what point do you let your child watch footage of something as repulsive as these events? take care - dogman
I am watching ABC. Just heard the phone call from the mother of one of the victims in the plane that crashed in PA. How she had the strength to call and talk about the call her son made from the plane. Also, saw the story about the two girls and their mother looking for their father and their dog. Their father ran a restaurant in the WTC. The desperately were looking all over for him. They finally found him. How heartwrenching is that?! It breaks my heart!
Mom2 You are really blessed Now both of your lives and priorities will change forever. Who cares about a stupid credit card? You all for some reason, survived and were spared. Hey - he spared me from dying of AIDS - he spared your family from nearly certain death. My very best to you - dogman
