Red face Ironic things about Sep 11th

In numerology the number 11 is generally considered to beone of the "master numbers". So it's very strange that they found the following info....

The tragedy occurred on the date 9/11 9+1+1 = 11

Sep 11th was the 254th day of the year 2+5+4 = 11

The airplane that hit the north tower was flight 11

That flight had 92 people on board 9+2 =11

The airplane that hit the south tower had 65 passengers 6+5 =11

The twin towers resembled the number 11

In English the Expression "New Youk City" has 11 letters



That is just so weird. I can;t believe someone could plan something like that it blows my mind. Can you believe it's almost been 2 years.

It was a terrible day for America. I get a sad feeling when I see the Twin Towers shown in movies. I never noticed it prior to 9/11, but they are used as a focal point in so many movies.

Speaking for myself, the 9/11 tragedy affected me so profoundly, and if I live to be 100, I'll always have a deep sense of sadness about it. It takes anything to make me cry about it. This thread, writing this, a quick story on TV, an article--puts a lump in my throat. I'll never get over it.

Same here. I had just turned 16 when Sept 11th occurred...I will remember it for the rest of my life. It is, indeed, a day in history that should NEVER be forgotten. I agree with everything you said, Janice. Well done.

It is a very sad day in history. A lot of innocent people lost their lives. My father-in-law was in the Bronx at the time and was on his way to check out the Twin Towers that day. Then he saw the smoke and realized what happened. Then realized he was this close to his own death.

My Cousin was also in Brooklyn that day and was all mixed up in it but he escaped alive. Thank the lord I was lucky I didn't lose any one in my family. But my heart goes out to the families who lost their loved ones.

I was at school that day. During homeroom we got word that the twin towers had been hit. The rest of the day was spent watching TV in some classes. Then I got home and found out my grandfather had died in his sleep that morning. He was always watching CNN and after my aunt heard about the news she tried to call him because she knew he would be upset about another war, but he never answered. The day before he had had the best day, it was one of the few that he actually felt good.

My heart goes out to all who have lost a loved one on Sept. 11 whether in was in the attacks or not.

I had two connections to people lost on 9/11. I worked with someone who lost a brother. He worked for Cantor Fitzgerald, the company where everyone died.

My uncle's wife...her nephew was in the WTC for an interview and was killed.

Although, I didn't know anyone personally, I did still find myself sending two sympathy cards--one to my former co-worker, and another to my aunt.

My then girlfriend was on the phone to a friend of hers at the moment when the first plane hit the tower. Her friend is a doctor who was at a medical convention in NYC. They were talking on the phone when suddenly, she heard a terrible commotion on his end of the line. He said, "I've got to go," and she didn't get the whole story for several days, but his convention was accross the street from the towers. He spent the next few days pulling bodies and pieces of bodies from the rubble. He says that the period is just a vague blur in his mind now.

You're right, MonarC... it is really weird.

And like someone else said, I'll never get over it. Never. I read an article on it the other day (I forgot which magazine) and I just started crying. So sad that a nation could be shattered by an act so... devistating. I'll never forget that day.

I've often thought of those who are young, and I feel bad that 9/11 happened so young in their lives. My niece was 17. My husband's grandchildren all under 10.
I was 43 when it happened. There were some horrible things that happened in my lifetime. From the ages of 6 to 16, I saw the adults in my life devasted by the nightly news covering the Vietnam War.
This is somehow different to me....that one single horrific event occurred, and the young folks have to carry it around in their hearts for the rest of their lives.
I would have hated 9/11 to have happened when I was, say 16. People aren't fully mature in their teens, and it must make it more difficult to cope with the tragedy.
I'm having a hard time explaining what I mean, but I hope this makes sense.
