Beautiful writing! I had breast cancer and compared the towers to my breasts and one editor said: never do that!

Sure would be nice if our government would stop kissing Saudi Arabia's ass. It's peak America that we invade Afghanstan and destroy Iraq because of what Saudis did to us.

The 9/11 families don't want Biden around after sucking up to the brutal, American journalist murdering regime when Biden said he'd make the pariahs.

I don't blame them.

I remember WW1 veterans marching in a 4th parade, Great Depression Hobos, and all the wars since. I remember news of the death of FDR. As a kid I assumed he was president for life.

Yes, my father remembered the end of WW2 and the death of FDR. Some of his earliest memories.

I'm sorry I'm not yet 43. I'm working on it, though.
