Friday is "Color Day". We're supposed to fly flags and wear red white and blue. I know people who are going to fly their flags upside down. This is standard international code for a ship in distress. I'm going to do my best to scrounge up red, white and blue tommorow. I want a flag pin or patch for my coat.
We used to have people called "sky marshals" on planes before we installed metal detectors and such in airports. They were armed US Marshals who rode on airplanes to make things safer and to make people feel secure.
I've heard rumors of them thinking to re-institute them.
Okay... I hadn't cried yet. That was strange for me. I saw this... Well... You can go look.
"Flashman died on Tuesday. He lived two blocks away from the WTC towers, and after the first plane hit, he ran in to help. Ironically, his 20th birthday was on Monday. His best friend is keeping his LJ open in memory of him. Please take a moment, if you may, and post a comment. I'm sure his family will appreciate it."
