It is amazing. On the 11th terrorists attacted New York and Washington in an attempt to scare us. Well, guess what. We ain't having that! I heard on the tv just now people chanting,"USA!USA!USA!" It warmed me. But it's not just that! Outside I saw cars with American flags on them. People are wearing red,white and blue. The radio stations are playing patriotic songs. There is a tribute of some kind on almost every tv station for the people who died.
The terrorists may have scared us. But they also angered us. American pride is in full gear! You probably knew that already,though. Ok I'll go now.
I just had to say that.

Love ya, see ya here on the feud!
JOHNNY: You know, it must be expensive to have a baby nowadays.
ROY: It's expensive to have a hotdog nowadays.
NEWKIRK: No problem with that, sir. You just let me have one of our guns, and I'll put a nice little hole in between his eyes. It may not stop him, but it'll slow him down a bit.
CARTER: Piece of pie!
NEWKIRK: Cake, Andrew, cake.
LUCY: Oh, well, I thought you would want to play up the domestic angle. You know, how happily married Ricky is.
PHOTOGRAPHER: Well, we would ordinarily, you see, but Don Juan is all about love. It's got nothing to do with marriage.
LUCY: Yeah, he's pushing twenty-three, all right. In fact, he's pushed it all the way to thirty-five.
DAVY: Peter, as my devoted houseboy, what will be your main function?
PETER: I am born to serve my master and live only to perform his bidding!
DAVY: Right. Now get me my comb.
PETER: Get it yourself!
OSCAR: You want brown juice or green juice?
FELIX: What's the difference?
OSCAR: Three weeks.

I haven't heard it. But at school during luch there was silence and they played that song. I cried. So did all my friends. Then there was a silent 1minute. And we prayed.

Teddy: Hey, I'm making you an offer you can't refuse.
Jinny: Look, you know who I am, OK? You know who my family is. Why do you even wanna be with me at all?
Teddy: Because, I love you.

Jinny: Basically, people are who people are. Your born, you die pretty much the same person. All the rest is just window dressing.

Yes everytime I turn on the radio there is always some kind of patriotic song. We also had a moment of silence in school, and we also talked about it a lot. I saw Bush on TV today talking through a bullhorn to the people of New York. Like someone said, they were chanting "USA USA USA". These people thought that they were hurting us, but they were uniting us. Just thought I would put my 2 cents in.

I haven't heard it on the radio, but I've heard it about 55255445 times on TV. My English teacher made the class write a paper on how we felt about the whole thing...

On April 24, 2008, Dana and I are going to meet in LA and handcuff ourselves to Nancy McKeon and Jay Harrington, and you're not. And by the way...this is our own original idea and we do not appreciate people copying us. So don't.
Jinny: Oh, come on, folks, please, don't be shy. Apparently anyone is welcome to crap all over me tonight, so please, step right on up!
Freddy: Now your gonna need a nut doctor!
Darrell: Listen, I don't know what kind of greasy, rubber nigga your sleepin' with...

I was riding in my car down the street, and that song was playing from someone's house. And I've heard it on TV a lot. Too bad it took 5,000 American lives to unite the American people...

Well, this here's my *300th* post. To show my American pride (esp. since I was *born* in Washington, D.C.!), I dedicate it to the U.S.A. in general.
God Bless America, my home sweet home.
How's that? http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/wink.gif

I was driving down the highway earlier today and I saw these three kids standing on top of a hill. They looked like they were around 13 or 14. Two of the kids were holding signs. The other kid had an american flag in one hand and two fingers up in the other hand as in a peace sign or a victory sign. It made me proud.

Fine.
My dad said there are too many volunteers at the World Trade Center. That is cool.
But did you notice the Democrats and Republcans are actually working together? I didn't think that was possible!
