Shes only a baby

The only thing I can be happy about is she is NOT in England right now. She is on the Sea Princess enjoying that.

Since there is nothing I can do I am going to Tale Ellie out for a spin!

she will be ok. As after 9/11 basically the safest tiem to fly was right afterwards with security beeign so tight. It will be the same way over there.

Its weird how the mayor of NYC at the time of 9-11 was in London at the same exact time of these bombings..

But anyways.. It might not even be terrorists from the middle east.. Japan had lots of terrorists going into their subways and leaving poisen gases or bombs in their.. And if that is the fact then i see a draft coming on..

But anyways.. i didnt here that 45 pple have died.. Their were 4 subway trains that were bombed, 3 of them accounted for 33 deaths and the last train that was bombed was unknown yet.

Sad, and totally uncalled for. I never understand the taking of lives like that. What does it prove? What does it solve? If they want to fight, fight those who are gonna fight back. They never had the chance.

I'm sorry to hear James. When I woke up and turned the tube on, I saw the disaster. The first thing that ran through my mind was you James, and hoping that you and yours were safe. I'm glad to hear that you and your family and friends are.

Innocent people are being killed all over the world because of politics, religion and greed. The answer may be education, but it will take generations. In the mean time ,these criminals must be chased down and removed as a threat by whatever means necessary.Such barbarism cannot be allowed to go on.For these people to do such things , then claim responsibilty and praise a merciful God is unbelievable.This is an act of pure evil.

Sorry for the soap-box speech,but 9/11 was very close to home.If I had worked one day later,my throat would have been slashed in the cockpit.

My prayers go to the victims and the families.

Glad to hear Ivy is ok. This whole thing is a mess. I never understood why for the sake of their God they kill in his name. My God, the father, creator of heaven and Earth teaches Love, kindness, and wisdom. I can not even comprehend why they do what they do. Evil pure evil!!

Thats pretty sweet. I have been on a Polaris 300, they are DOGs. The 500 was sick, so i figure the 400 aka yours would be like the mustang Bullit of 4 wheelers.

This stunned me when I first read about it this morning before going to work. My heart immediately went out to the families and loved ones who suffered a tragic loss and then to my friends on this forum.

These terrorist attacks, while tragic, only bring our global communtity closer together and stiffen our resolve to fight these reprehensible creatures. Until we finally find them, and every law enforcement agency in the free world is working round the clock to do just that, we must stay together as a family in unity in unity and pray. We can't put all of out plans on hold, whether they're for travel or business expansion, because if we do that, they will have won.

Let's give up the thread hijacking for a moment, please. Right now I don't think this is an appropriate place to discuss any activities that aren't related to this topic. I don't want to cast a somber pall over this place but let's give it a little time before we go there, or open a more lighthearted thread.


Yes, I am an American, but I think of myself more as a citizen of the world, especially in these times. Be strong, my brothers and sisters. Never give up hope and faith. We will prevail.
