9/11 2007

This will be the third year I'll make a 9/11 post. And it will be a blissfully uneventful day.

September 11th, 2002 we knew SOMETHING would happen. The 2004 political conventions it was pretty obvious SOMETHING would happen. Certainly the elections SOMETHING would happen.

This year's conventions went by with a yawn regarding security. Flying has become a modern day nuisance. Nobody has tried to blow up their shoes in years.

Thank you Mr. President and all of the men and women who have made that possible for the last seven years. That day the idea that this wouldn't happen again (and soon) was almost unthinkable. But we've done it so far. God willing, we will manage another seven.
