The world would not be the same place it is now if 9/11/01 was a normal day. The world would be a whole lot less paranoid, security would be much looser, and war would not have been fought. Things would be happy-go-lucky in a sense. But they are not.
I am part of Generation Y, the 9/11 influenced children. I remember I was in 7th grade those 6 years ago in my Language Arts class. Things were confusing back then, I had no idea what happened till I got home. Kids were being picked up by their parents, one by one. The last group of us that remained till the end went home to witness what had happened. There was chaos and confusion everywhere I looked. The smoke was billowing through the skies of Jersey City. I also recall the TV was down, and everything was full of static. Couldn't really watch the news correctly.
I remember during that time, their was a huge sense of American nationalism. I am no longer a fan of nationalism of any kind now, but I saw American flag cutouts or flags themselves on car windows. I guess vulnerability has the power to compel people to be nationalist.
But anyways, 9/11/01 is a day I certainly will never forget. It had such a powerful impact on the world, one that will never revert.

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. (If he will be possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll I thankful, bye friend).
I don't really understand Spanish too well and what you are saying is not translating on the translator websites. I think you are talking about putting ads on my site. I will be willing if I get revenue, however I am not 18 yet, so I cannot do so. Ask again in 2 months, I will be 18 then.
