This Letter Still Makes Me Choke Up.

How I remember it, when I lived in Manhattan.

Repost of the original 9/11 Letter from Don:

—-

My daughter’s birthday is today. Yesterday, like most every work day, I
woke up with the radio tuned to X96. I start the day with your 7:00am
news. About the time my radio clicked on, you guys were talking about a
plane hitting the World Trade Center. An accident. Almost immediately you
shared reports that a second plane had possibly hit. Ludicrous. Not
possible. But it was true.

Today is my daughter’s birthday. She’s in the first grade. Yesterday we
had planned a party for her and some of her friends. Yesterday was
surreal. I took a long lunch and drove to the store to meet my wife. We
were going to buy my daughter a bicycle. On the way I listened to the
news reports; planes hijacked and crashing, the Pentagon attack, the
towers collapsing, and people missing and dead by the thousands.

We bought the bicycle. It was a gift for her from us and from her
grandparents that live in Ohio. Earlier this week, she finally learned to
ride. It’s a beautiful bike.

Yesterday, we had that birthday party. It was at Some Dude’s Playground
in Clearfield. Something about half a dozen kids running around and
laughing and having fun. It was just what we needed.

Afterward, we went home, put the kids to bed and watched the news. This
morning I woke up again to X96 and listened to you guys take calls and
read e-mail. I listened to Gina reporting from the Red Cross and giving
blood. I’m grateful for what you are trying to do.

I sent my daughter off to school wearing her favorite purple dress. She
senses that something unusual has happened but really has no idea of the
enormity of yesterday’s events. Someday she will. She’ll someday look at
the headlines of a newspaper and see the date September 12, 2001, her
birthday and she’ll understand.

In that dress, going off to school, only seven-years-old, she’s
beautiful.

How Obama Is Indoctrinating Your Children

Our President.

The Obama Ocho (City Weekly, Sept. 10)

Bill Frost

Eight signs your child was brainwashed by Barack Obama’s school speech on Tuesday:

8. Instead of asking “Where’s his birth certificate?” he asks, “Where’s your high school diploma?”

 

7. She’s full of impossible ideas like a “career” and having fewer than eight babies.

 

6. He’s exhibiting Socialist tendencies, like sharing and playing with toy fire trucks.

 

5. She dares to ask over dinner, “What if Obama’s not the Antichrist? Can we turn the basement bunker into a play room?”

 

4. Instead of wanting to go to soccer practice Saturday morning, he asks “So, where’s the local farmers’ market?”

 

3. She switches the car radio from Radio Disney to NPR or, worse, jazz.

 

2. He’s demanding universal health care for his new ferret, which he’s named “Snarl Marx.”

 

1. She quotes Keith Olbermann and Rachael Maddow more than Jesus and Sean Hannity.

Thanks for being a great writer Bill Frost.

Thanks for listening,
Bill
