They are just AWESOME. When I was a kid (barf!!!) I remember my family having a conversation about JFK's assasination - I think I was studying it at the time - and everyone went around the table and told the story of what they were doing, who they were with and where they were. I remember thinking I pity'd them for how little information and imagination they had. I was curled in my sisters lounge room,on holiday, and everyone else was in bed coz they had to work the next day. We had all watched All Saints (big Aussie drama) and I started flicking after the house settle and I kissed my baby girl good night. 'It' was playing live. I thought I was watching another action flick. SLOWLY it sunk in that it was real. While I was sitting carefree and safe, the sky was falling. My (asshole) brother in law came out and asked what crap I was watching and I told him it was live - he scratched his ass and went back to bed. I started crying and went and got my 3yr old out of bed and cuddled her all night long while I watched. I am VERY wwell informed, and lack everything but imagination. I won't ever forget. Don't blame America for what the world and humankind are responable for. It's every where - you were just first. Having said that - don't go to europe, come visit the land of sand and surf!!! |
