...this image brings to mind the people who dined and laughed, those who drank their coffee, left a dime for a tip, a good tip in the 60s for just a cup of coffee, and then headed off to work, their only reason for stopping, a few words of American greetings to get their day off to the right start...

...this photo reminds me of an era I enjoyed in America, an era that is too difficult to describe unless one was alive in this magical time when the laws were loose and the rules were based on common sense, a time when one could chase dreams without a lot of red tape, etc. It was, in a nutshell, a very happy time for a young lad. It was a time when almost everyone who wanted work could get a job.

It is a crying shame that no memorial has been erected. Let me guess, the cross is gone, right? And now, it appears, there will be a mosque built within shouting distance of this site. Yes, it is too bad that Mayor Rudy did not continue. I believe the memorial would have been built had New York had the type of leadership needed to erect a memorial.
Do you believe that the WTC will ever be rebuilt?
ROBERT HUFFSTUTTER says:
Yes, these two streams of life are a temporary memorial, but it has been 9 years and what kind of solid memorial is there on this site?
What is being planned to commemorate the victims? When I look at the flak in the light, I am reminded of those who jumped. Nine years have passed and there is no substantial memorial. I just don't understand what happened to the plans. I do not understand why the towers were not rebuilt. Now, the site is one of heated controversy. Who, who in their wildest imagination would have imagined the scene that is happening now, the news about the projected building site?
Who would have believed there would be no monument nine years following this very sad tragedy and attack on our nation?

TEXAS IS AMONG MY FAVORITE STATES...I have never met a woman from Texas who wasn't pleasant and friendly. The people of Texas are special. I worked in Texas for about a year and loved the people I met.
I just noticed the photo was taken in LA, but am assuming Miss Molly is from Texas according to tags. LA folks are also great people.
Nothing here yet.
