# Sorry for quality, old digital camera

Got nostalgic for New York, dug up some of my old photos.
Shame it was such a misty day... Always a cheerful city though before 11-9...

# the filter thing is just a temporary thing
to remind people to play nice with newbies. Personally I don't give a rats arse if your every other words is cunt and fuck. Just as long as everyone gets along and plays nicely.

# I love the fact
you got nostalgic, so you got a photo and shopped the Quo into it.
It eases the pain...

# Or... the nostalgia was an excuse for shopping the Quo
into the WTC... :D

# I didn't know what the Twin Towers were
until they were gone. Say what you like about Al Qaeda. They put the Twin Towers on the map. Er.. and took them off again.

# they were actually quite cool
While the empire states building looked better, the view was only 180' at one time.
The WTC tower allowed you to see 360' around, but only downwards at an angle of 45', so it was trippy, just divorced from the crowd below. Helicopters flew below, and the city was silent.
Only worth it in afternoon, so sunset over hudson, then city lit up. Or these days at anytime really for ghoulish enjoyment or breathing asbestos.

The funny thing is I'm surprised there weren't more college students at the end of their j1 (irish student work visa) there.
Good old al quaeda, did it in the mornign, so all the irish srtudents were still bollocksed drunk in their - or someone elses - beds...

# Mrs. Evil & I
went up both WTC towers on the Friday before it happened.
We had cocktails in the Window of the World bar, some people had just got married and were having a reception.
Flew home on Saturday night and all my postcards arrived on Tuesday (11/9) and were waiting on all our friends' doormats.

# yeah - my g/f told me similar stuff
she's got these photos of her and her mates hugging at the top. Odd to think there's just thin air there now.

# Didn't get
my photos developed.
Still too upset.
I remember the elevators were a bit shaky and being reassured that the building security - bag searches etc. - was pretty good.

# That's the point.
You don't expect a huge great airliner to smack into the side!
"Sorry, you can't come in, you're not on the list" ain't good enough under those circumstances!
