9/11 Documentary

On September 11, 2001, filmmakers Jules and Gedeon Naudet (and James Hanlon) were filming a documentary on a rookie New York City firefighter when they noticed a plane overhead. That plane would hit the World Trade Center. The firefighter and the Naudets rushed immediately to the scene. The Naudets filmed throughout Sept. 11 and the days afterward from the firemen’s perspective, as it became clear to them that this was the only known footage from inside the Twin Towers that day.

One of them was INSIDE WTC1 minutes after the first plane hit, and later WHILE WTC2 collapsed! I saw this film years ago and I’ve never forgotten about it. The footage is amazing, the editing is superb, the emotion is intense. It’s a must-see film, so if CBS pulls it before you get a chance to watch it, go buy it on Amazon or wherever you want. The Amazon link above is not an affiliate link, so I’m not pushing it to earn any cash… I believe this film is fantastic and I sincerely wish people to see it and to never forget what extremists will do to get their own way.

I could write a monumental tome trying to piece together everything surrounding 9/11, but it’s such a quagmire I don’t think it would help. The blame-game is virtually pointless, so it comes down to what you, personally, stand for.

I heard somewhere recently (I think in the movie “The Libertine”): “It’s easy to be against something, but sometime you have to grow up and be FOR something.” It’s very true.

I think the meddling of the United States in foreign affairs brought emnity with it, but how can we not meddle in foreign affairs when we’re all part of a global society, a global market. The United States is probably the most powerful country on the planet, but we haven’t always acted responsibly with our power. More terrorism on U.S. soil was inevitable, and it was spectacular in it’s horror and fury.

The mouse may scare the elephant away, the elephant may crush the mouse, but while both exist in the same moment, terror and hope radiates outward to infinite horizons.

Hope is better. Let’s not forget the terror and work towards a better future.

Remember my trials with Two Pimps and A Dream – Waffle House

I’ve enjoyed the Foamy The Squirrel cartoons by Jonathan Ian Mathers, so I set up all I could find on my own site. It’s usually a rant cartoon, but it has some decent commentary and an odd stroke-induced genius to it. Foamy is the main character, but Germaine, the supposed owner, is Foamy’s perfect straight-(wo)man foil. Other characters come and go, but those two are the mainstays.

The first one I saw was the maple syrup one (Episode 78, Pancake Madness), and then I just had to see the rest. Some suck, some are laugh-out-loud funny, but all are appreciated.
