I've re-posted my entries last year as they happened. Almost all the original links are still active (and all links on this page are functional).

Horror.

I ran across this quote...
"NONVIOLENCE IS THE GREATEST FORCE AT THE DISPOSAL OF MANKIND. IT IS MIGHTIER THAN THE MIGHTIEST WEAPON OF DESTRUCTION DEVISED BY THE INGENUITY OF MAN."
- GANDHI

I hope the U.S leaders can remember this...

What can be said this morning.

At around 8 o'clock last night I just switched off. I couldn't take it anymore. I felt empty, cold and frightened. I, like most young people, had never experienced feeling unsafe in your own home. I wanted it to end, I wanted to snap my fingers and go back to the day before. Of course my thoughts are with the victims in the towers, and Pentagon as well as the brave police, firefighters, and rescue workers who risked and lost their lives.

One postive thing that helped countless people, including myself, during this tragedy was the Internet. Moments after witnessing the carnage I received emails from friends in the NYC area, during a time when phones were tied up and I feared the worst. I was able to read first hand accounts from NYC and DC residents whose weblogs I follow on a daily basis. Websites like Kottke and Surfstation have amazing link lists to photos, weblogs and help centers.

At some point I hope to start writing about movies, music, design and skateboarding again. I feel it's important not to let this horrible act change our lives. Strength comes though progress and remembrance.

We can't let them win.

Thanks to John C. Glass for the opening image...
(note: You MUST view these images. Still the most moving I've ever seen)

I am speechless...

My good friend Chad, who sent me this link said it best," Don't forget about this".

Send this human garbage some hate mail.

Throughout all the terrible events this week it was nice to go to the dog park everyday and talk to people from all walks of life. In fact, Kato (the dog) has made much of this week bearable.
