So where were you on 911?

[Dead Parrot]

I was at work in downtown OKC. After the first plane hit, a bunch of us were watching the TV in a break room. We saw the 2nd one hit and knew it wasn't an accident. We got sent home shortly after that. OKC was skittish about such things after the Murrah bombing a few years earlier. There was worry we could be a repeat target. On the way home, I passed a USPS delivery person calmly going about his work. The contrast between that bit of normal and what I had seen on the TV and knew to be happening elsewhere was stark.
