Today is the anniversary of one of the most horrible occurrences known to modern man - the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Somehow it didn't feel right running our regular weekend programming features so in lieu of our caption contest results I've collected some images that for all intents and purposes have been ingrained in our collective conscience since then. We'll run the caption results tomorrow and split the post with the Sunday Funnies.
The event 9 years ago left a lasting impression on the United States. And it shocked it's neighbours to the south, indeed, it's allies around the world. This weekend is a time to remember those who perished in the attacks on the World Trade Centre, the Pentagon and who crashed into a field in rural Pennsylvania, the result apparently of heroic passengers who overcame the terrorist-commandeered plane. It's also a time to recall the role played by NYPD and fire department responders. They were heros, all.
