I'll never forget. I was at work at the satellite factory that morning. By some strange coincidence I was on the phone with my good buddy Zeke who lives out in Missouri. I think we'd figured out a way to call each other on the company's dime and were talking, just catching up.
I remember noticing there was a commotion over at the conference room that was catty corner from my cubical across the room. I prairie dogged up to see what was going on. I could see into the conference room as the door was open and I could see they had the TV on. I told Zeke something was up in NYC and that he should turn on his TV if he had one available. Just then I saw the second plane fly into the tower, and yet the talking head on the TV just seemed to totally ignore it, like they weren't even watching what they were broadcasting. Then they did take notice and all heck began to break out.
I don't remember getting much work done the rest of the day. We may have been told to go home for all I remember. All I do know is that life would never be quite the same again.
