I have to say something on the 10 year anniversary of that horrific tragedy. Look at this news article I got in my "Google News by email" feed. (I'd share the link to sign up, but I can't figure out how to, see this discussion if you're interested in getting the top news stories daily in your email) Back to 9/11, oh yeah. This video absolutely astounded me. It's not about the towers, it's shows President Bush's non-reaction when he hears the news that America is under attack. Whether you're a Bush fan or absolutely not, here's the leader of the free world learning that his country is in a surprise war... and because he's in front of a class of elementary students, HAS NO VISIBLE REACTION. That's astounding! My respect for W. just shot though the roof! To be able to so calmly handle himself after receiving the news that America is under attack is just breathtaking. I mean, face it, most of us would immediately let out a scream, run around in circles, and yell "FORGET THE WOMEN AND CHILDREN, HELP ME!" while putting a kitchen pot over our heads. ;-) But no, look at this:

Well done, W. Those schoolchildren were able to calmly continue their day because you were able to control yourself in the crucial moment-- WELL DONE INDEED!

My pirate name is:
Captain Jack Kidd
