I was in college that day, and was woken by my roommate calling me in a panic that I had to turn on the tv. I hung up on him and went back to sleep, but he kept calling. I picked up the phone and will never forget the 4 words he spoke to me..."WE ARE UNDER ATTACK!" I remember turning on the tv right before the 2nd plane hit. I went out into the hallway of my dorm and all I could hear were tv's at full volume, all doors open. I went to Westfield State, which wasn't far from the Air Force Base, and the sight of fighter jets of all sorts doing flyby's and scrambling into formations is something I won't ever forget. I still, 11 years later look up if I think a plane sounds too loud. God Bless and keep all those lost from that day forward.

Calling fishing a hobby is like calling brain surgery a job. ~Paul Schullery

There he stands, draped in more equipment than a telephone lineman, trying to outwit an organism with a brain no bigger than a breadcrumb, and getting licked in the process. ~Paul O'Neil, 1965
