There are probably a thousand and one blogs yammering about "Don't for get those who died".
There's a thread on the forum following the same line.
Too bad a lot of these things are so damned hypocritical. For example one member effectively stated that the people who died in the Oklahoma Bombing back in April 19,1995 are less important because he was only a year old and didn't witness it.
Do I mourn for those that died? No. Should I? No. Should anyone? That's your choice. It could be argued that I don't care because I'm Canadian but that's not true. The dead are dead and mourning them changes nothing. "show some respect for the dead." Well I am. I'm not out there pissing on Ground Zero, I'm not digging up the dead and defiling the bodies am I?
When it happened I was in shock, not only at the attack but at the loss of life. I mourned them on that day and I felt sorrow for the families that were unsure for days after if they lost loved ones and I felt angry that something like that could happen. What do I feel now? Caution. I will never forget 9/11 But why should the significance of that one act deserve more remembrance than April 19?
People need to remember all the incidents. Timothy McVeigh killed 168 people, 19 of them Children, yet I haven't ANY blogs or threads on the forum asking to remember them. I would think it would be a much more important thing to remember than 9/11 because it was a HOMEGROWN TERRORIST.
What about Beirut and the Embassy bombing on April 18, 1983?
Why do you insist on remembering ONLY one incident? Jesus Christ, you have people in the Middle East fighting the "War on Terror".
If you want to honor those that fell at the hands of terrorists honor ALL of them.

Sunday, September 09, 2007
So it's September 9, 2007. School has been in for four whole days! So far it's been a bit of an adjustment but it's been going well. I just don't know what to do while Logan is gone during the day.
We already have to go see the principal though. Not for something Logan did but what a kid in his class did. The little girl across the street has volunteered to walk Logan to and from school. Friday, on the way home, a kid in Logan's class (Connor) yelled from his bus window, "Logan you're a fucking retard!" This is the same kid from last year that was threatening to beat Logan up. Monday morning I'll be walking Logan to school so I can talk to Mr. Muncey.
A couple of weeks ago Carrie was in contact with Oddfellows about a wheelchair. They came through for her and we had a chair in excellent condition. Well, Thursday they called us again. They managed to get a power chair for her. Carrie's still learning to drive it with out killing those around her but she's getting better.
Labor Day weekend Carmen and Steve came to Kingston to visit his parents and picked Logan up to go fishing.
As you can see he was allowed to drive the boat.
After that they took him to Chuck E. Cheese's for supper.
Unfortunately they brought Logan home... LOL!
So what else is going on? Well, Karen, our third floor neighbor, just found out she's preggers. Next Friday her twin boys are having a birthday party at McDonlad's and Logan is excited to go.
Tuesday Carrie has an appointment to see about going back to school. She only needs 3 or 4 more credits to get her grade 12. On the 19th we go to the optometrist for a contact lens thing. Carrie wants to get them. I wouldn't mind but I'm concerned about allergies and I don't think ODSP will cover them for me unless there's a medical reason that I need them. If they give free samples then cool.
On the paintball forum there's a thread asking "Is Puzuma going weak?" I was listening to music and it displayed the song on MSN. Nelly Furtado was in the playlist and a member noticed this. A few posts later I'm now in a rock band and I wrote our first song. The post is more like the start of a concert:
I have no life. LOL
