      I was in high school. I remember a kid coming up to me and saying a plane hit the Empire State Building. My response, and I'll never forget was "that's dumb."

            It's ok. I was just out of high school when it happened. I'm more than happy to share my adult diapers with you if you ever run out.

        We were all joking about how it would be so much cooler if it were, like, 100 Cessnas. Then the teachers got mad and shouted at us that the draft would come back.

          I was out of college and knew that it was big but didn't realize how huge it would become. The OKC bombing was just 6 years earlier, when I was in high school, and we weren't sent home early or offered any counseling or anything. It was just another news story. When 9/11 came around, I didn't realize just how much milk the people in charge saw in it.

      "Oh shit the pilot passed out. Don't worry, I took some flying lessons, even though I stopped before learning how to land"
