Yesterday the world was changed, probably forever, by one of the worst events to ever happen to this country. The World Trade Centers were attacked and destroyed. Nobody knows how many people were killed. Nobody knows what it will do to the economy, the national psyche or anything else. It was completely unexpected and devastating. I don’t have any words for it and don’t have any clue what to say. Normally, on a day like today, I would be writing about my life, about some little thing going on in it, about my money or health. I might be writing about the computer I am using and the fact that I took the screen and keyboard from a different PB170 and put them on mine to fix it when the screen went black. I might be writing about the embarassment of falling asleep next to a pretty girl on the bus or about any of a number of trivial things, but thousands, possibly tens of thousands, of people lost their lives yesterday and I can think of nothing else today. What am I going to tell Sydney tonight?
