The first station I played after 911 was in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. The dust from downtown was heavy in the air conditioning systems of the trains, and was deposited in the stations whenever they opened the doors. You could see it billowing out from the vents.

Poor Brooklyn. They were directly downwind.

I live in Staten Island, and earlier that year there was a fire at a chemical plant in Jersey that made the whole island smell like bug spray. But no one here will ever forget the smell of the towers.

I will never forget that smell. Re Guiliani, was there not some controversy about the command center…where was it again?

Ah, just wondering :-) IAFF 2068 here

WASHINGTON (Map, News) – Attorney General Alberto Gonzales confirmed Thursday that former Arizona U.S. Attorney Paul Charlton was fired after policy clashes that the Justice Department considered “poor judgment.”

Democrats in Arizona have suggested Charlton was fired on Dec. 7 because his office had opened investigations before the 2006 election into a land deal by Rep. Rick Renzi, R-Ariz., and a camping trip retired Rep. Jim

Breaking, from Roll Call:

FBI Raids Renzi Family Business; Congressman Leaves Intelligence Panel

Thursday, April 19; 10:04 pm

In a second blow to House Republicans this week, the FBI raided a business tied to the family of Rep. Rick Renzi (R-Ariz.) Thursday afternoon as part of an ongoing investigation into the three-term lawmaker.

These Republicans must be setting some sort of record in keeping the FBI busy. Wasn’t Doolittle ’s office jumped the other day?

Hmmm…

If the Dems nominate Hillary the uber-breeder, I’m voting for one of my cats.

It takes a village, my ass.

I just don’t get it. If some 40% to 50% of the left half of the political spectrum can’t stand Hillary, how in the hell does she figure she can get 51% or the vote?

The Repugs are stone silent on her, just hoping for the Dems to lead with their easiest victim.

The New York Times is shooting us all in the foot because they obviously give her all the faux credibility she is ever going to muster. The rest of the United States is not going to “hold their nose” and vote for her, over Guliani.. or McCain or Romney. She is completely delusional.

What is an uber-breeder? Does it mean she has lots of kids?

Hell, I don’t know. It must be something that gave Bill the Wander-lust, though. I’m not sure I really want to have a look-see and learn.

You?
