I was awoken around 10AM by numerous phone calls telling me to turn on the TV right away. Shortly after that i got in my car heading on the belt pkway towards the city to get a view of the WTC. It was about 10 mins into my ride when the second tower came down. I like many other new yorkers sat on the belt pkway pulled over watching this horrible event happen.

All you saw was a mushroom cloud ingulf lower mahatten.

Im still sick to my stomach watching it on CNN and reading about it in the paper every day.

I did not know anyone killed thanks god, the sadest thing that brings tears to my eyes are the funerals for all the 300 + FDNY hero's. Were i live a few of these great hero's lived and were stationed, sadly there are still every few weeks a random funeral or memorial for the local hero's around here.

I would not call the killing of 3,000+ people on live tv "entertainment". If that was your wife or father i dont think you would be saying that.
