My memory may not be what it once was, but I didn’t forget the anniversary of 9/11/2001. What I did was fail to honor the memory of that day in proper fashion. At a minimum, it warrants a stand-alone post.
I was reminded of this when today someone commented on my post from 2009 recognizing the sacrifice of firefighter James Raymond Coyle who gave his life trying to save others in the World Trade Center towers.
I was honor to walk for James during 9/11 Stair climb in Charlotte, NC 2022

Thank you and we will Never Forget!
That’s the way you properly honor a memory. Thanks, Ania and Mya!
I also recognized another firefighter back in 2005–Samuel Oitice. Your sacrifice will not be forgotten.
The world changed that day, and so did I. My political outlook was broadened, and I discovered the wealth of information on the internet that the MSM couldn’t be bothered to report. That’s when I started reading Instapundit, for example. Ultimately, I felt driven to do something more meaningful with my life than being a nobody with the U.S. Department of Education. I applied for Defense Department jobs all over the world, and I was offered and accepted a position with the Army in Korea. Nothing has been the same since.
Reading Instapundit is enough to make one wonder who the worst enemies are—the ones outside of US borders or the ones within.
Hard to say, but it sure does open your eyes to a world the MSM doesn’t want us to see.
