ArchivesRe: ...my positive energy to NY... :-( n/t
in reply to a message by Pavlos
Thanks, Pavlos & Tracie. I've got a cousin who works on Wall Street, and I don't know what's become of him. I'm at work right now, and we've all been listening to the radio. The lower end of Manhattan is completely engulfed in smoke.
I may be shutting down the library early today, because I've got so many staff members with friends and family who work in the city. Keep sending the positive energy. We need it.

My love and warm wishes to you and your family and friends in NY. I hope you get a rainbow at the end of this storm. I have an aunt that works in a Federal Bldg. in D.C., I'm not sure what's become of her either. :*(

I think the news said they were evacuating all Federal buildings in D.C. I'm sending positive energy for your aunt, SJ.
They're bringing New York survivors out to Long Island hospitals here. I've just notified my staff that anyone who wants to go to the nearest hospital to donate blood can go now.

Thanks, Nan . I just heard word from my grandma that my aunt and uncle are both at home safe. Here in St. Louis , they have shut down all the malls and suspended all after school activities, which started first with the school I graduated from I'm guessing because we are extremely close to St. Louis-Lambert Airport. My brother was due to come home from the Navy for the weekend, but he's not anymore because the military has declared a state of Delta. They came into our liar, Nan , now we have to destroy them.

Glad your aunt and uncle are safe; I just got word that my cousin is okay, too.
Yep, "If a guest in your lair annoys you, treat him cruelly and without mercy." Except the ones who did this were by no means guests, and they did a helluva lot worse than simply annoy.
As soon as the people responsible for this have been identified, they need to be hunted down and made to pay. The thing is, most terrorists don't care whether they live or die, anyway -- and the ones who did these heinous acts were on a suicide mission, anyway.
So what needs to be done is to destroy something that they *do* care about -- something that is close to their heart and that they love very, very dearly.
I'd have no inhibitions whatsoever about doing that, but I don't know if our government would do it, because the U.S. always wants to be perceived as being "the good guys".
Lucky for the terrorists that there aren't more Satanists running this country.

I know an Irish Satanist who's just as enraged as you are (her mother's family is from Northern Ireland and they are Catholic, so it gives you an idea about how well she understands the p.o.v.) She's adding a bit of her energies (from what I understand).
The ones that I'm worried about are the rank-and-file Muslims (especially those living in the U.S.) who DON'T condone this sort of crap. I fear that they will bear the injuries that the rest of the country want to give the ones who actually ordered/pulled off this attack.

I know what you mean...
It's nice to hear that you know other Satanists, Phyllis. :)
I know what you mean about how a lot of Muslims do NOT condone these crimes. I'm concerned for the people who own and operate my favorite Afghanistani restaurant on Long Island -- Kabul Restaurant in the town of Huntington. And then there's the Kabul Restaurant on West 54th St. in Manhattan. I've chatted with the young women employed there about the Taleban's religious fundamentalist control in Afghanistan, and they've told me how the Taleban is "crazy" over there in their treatment (enslavement, actually) of women.
I would no sooner confuse these good people with the cowardly scum who destroyed the WTC, than I would have others confuse philosophical Satanists with devil-worshippers.
Sorry if I'm dwelling too much on the whole thing. We're all still pretty numb here in New York, and talking helps I guess. Even though I'm on Long Island, we've been isolated because all the highways and bridges leading towards Manhattan (and off the island) were closed yesterday and early today. And the ferries were all booked up and on a strictly "first come, first served" basis. So Long Islanders have essentially been trapped on the island. It gives one a kind of claustrophobic feeling, knowing that there's no way off the island if there had been some kind of emergency. I wonder if the terrorists even realized how vulnerable the entire Long Island population has been these past couple of days?

As if the country didn't hate FL enough for not being able to vote!
...we find out that the terrorists may have trained here in Florida!!
Don't feel badly for dwelling on this matter. I couldn't imagine being trapped like that. They make being stranded on an island look so nice in the movies.
My boyfriend and I tried to give blood yesterday, but the people at Florida Blood Service told us to come back tomorrow (today). They had so many people, even in little ol' Plant City trying to donate, they couldn't accomadate all of them in one day. Also, my favorite country station is out at the Buccaneer's Stadium and the Tropicana Field with Florida Blood Service "Blood Mobile" taking donations. Yesterday there was a four hour wait! The radio stations even said that there is usually an outpour of people trying to help give blood when a tragedy first happens, but then people stop after it's not front page news, say two weeks from now, and that's when they need blood, too. I've got an appointment for this afternoon to donate.
God Bless All Who've Helped
***ALSO: If you have an American flag-show it. We don't have one at out house and the Wal-Mart is sold out we're using red, white, and blue ribbon on our mailbox. And my toenails are painted red,white, and blue, too, since I always wear sandals. It makes me feel better, and maybe it will lift a few others' spirits.

The country's gotta get over the Florida thing. You prove that there are cool people in Florida, 'Cole. :)

Thanks, SJ.
I watched the news an hour ago, and the Prime Minister of England was giving a press conference on the attack. After stating what precautions his country were taking, he made a very touching statement. He said that this act was not one on the United States, but one on the free, democratic world, and that they will stand shoudler to shoulder with us during this time. It's nice to know that though we can hold our own in the U.S ., that someone has our backs. And you're right, SJ- they came onto our terf. And to reword the words of our President, "This is a test of our strength, and we will not fail to pass it."

Thanks, Tracie. :) I can't do e-mail from work, but my lifemate is watching the news at home. Everyone here is just numb with shock. It's almost incomprehensible.
