I was woke up that morining by one of my employees, he called and told my wife to wake me.

So I'm sitting on the bowl and I hear on the news that the FAA had shut down all flights over the US. I remember thinking.... wtf would cause them to close down all flights. I then walked into my office and sat down and saw the towers fall on the replays over, and over.

The Long Island Expressway was shut down straight into NYC, the emergency vehicles were flying back and forth all day.

I think the saddest part was watching people walking around looking for their loved ones.

I was lucky not to be in the city that day, and didn't know anyone personally that was murdered that day. But, I lost a big part of me when they fell. I used to play at the Trade Center when I was a kid. Then delivered to them when I was in my late 20's. I must have been in them thousands of times.
