I made the mistake of trying to leave the city. Penn was locked up. I came back and was walking down 44th st towards Grand C when hundreds of people started running towards me. Apparently there was a bomb scare there. I was never so happy to be…

Dear Uncle Harry and Aunt Ann,

I hope this finds everyone safe and well. This is a very sad and tragic day in our beautiful country. I have tried to call you all, and I keep getting a recording, so I thought I would try and contact you via a-mail, I…

Ciao, Jennifer,
Thank you for writing, it was very thoughtful of you. Fortunately, my friends and family are all ok. We are among the lucky ones.

Nora,

I got your email and responded to it, but I figured you might have left work since then. I'm ok. I got there just as the second plane hit. You can't believe what I saw. I am now at Sergej's office. I'll try to wrote more later. I hope you and…

Yeah, just totally shell shocked. You would not
believe what this has done to the city. Have been
glued to the tv for 2 days, unable to do anything.

The rest of the world pisses me off. Check out the following article. For Christ sake, we might as well APOLOGIZE to the terrorists for making them mad in the first place. One of the lines from the article is from South Africa stating that "We…

I know. I almost cried because I am so scared for all my family in my friend over there. And to hear you say that was really horrible. I cant even believe this is happening- dont worry you will be in my prayers...xxx

Anybody over on Big Week hear any further news about the
rest of our gang? I know Lemming is down in the area
there somewhere and I know Wolverine worked in the Trade
Center as I ran into him several times grabbing a smoke
outside the lobby.

I never thought I would experience the shock of Dec. 7, 1941 again. In the ensuing months after 9/11 when the nation is high on patriotism and most vulnerable in the name of it, our elected and appointed officials are abridging many of our…

Dear friends and family,

I am safe and well, and I hope you are too. After a few days of having trouble getting online and making calls, I thought I'd reconnect en masse by way of writing something of a mood piece from the walk I took today from my…

I spoke to you a couple of weeks ago regarding an EDS project taking place at JFK International airport.
Unfortunately, things are moving much slower than anticipated and I don't have any further information for you regarding the…

Tried to call, but I'm getting a busy signal. Just
wanted to let you know, in case they decide to take
out the entire Northeast, that I love you and am glad
we had at least five months together! Yes, I'm being
a little silly, but you never…

Howdy. Back at work this morning, although it was
just announced that we have a mass meeting in the
conference room in five minutes. Being 60 miles from
NYC, and being a publisher (when all of our comrades
work in NYC), we feel especially affected…
