Remember, Remember, the 11th of September.

It’s been five years since everyone’s lives were changed, either directly or indirectly, thanks to four terrorists hijacking separate planes and crashing into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and a field in Pennsylvania. It was done for no apparent reason aside from inflicting us with fear, and to a certain extent, it worked. Now 5 years later most people have recovered from the shock, but the people who lost members of their family or friends will probably never fully heal. Let’s take a moment to pray for them…

Now on to a bit happier note: the Freedom Tower. In case you haven’t seen the design for the building, it’s going to be a 1776 (in a tribute to the year we got our independence) foot tall structure, with a slanted glass roof, and it looks absolutely awesome. Alongside the FT will be a memorial for the 9-11 victims, a museum, and four other towers. Construction will be started at the end of 2006 and is supposed to be finished in 2012… Sort of doubt that though, with how amazing that thing looks. Basically just have a look at that picture to see what it’ll look like. Find out more about it near the bottom of this Wiki article.
