I sat and cried over several documentaries yesterday afternoon. One was that story of the firemen who survived the collapse of the second tower in a stairwell, after dropping several floors. One of the first radio transmissions they heard was rescuers saying they couldn't even tell where the tower was supposed to be, so they didn't know where to start looking for them yet. Can't believe it has been six years. SIX YEARS.

I won't. It was a crazy day. A crazy day. I still remember everything about it. In fact, I remember some really crazy details, like where I parked that day. Weird.

If you have yet to do so, you should watch the "9/11" documentary. Not that good from a filmmaking standpoint, but incredible nonetheless.
