Boy VS Donkey

 After going on vacation, this is the only photo your parents took of you. Please tell me what happened and how you felt.

Wish You Were Here

Today is the 11th anniversary of September 11, 2001, which is considered to have been the worst attack on the United States in history.. On that fateful day, 19 members of a terrorist group called al-Qaeda (al-KYE-da) hijacked four U.S. airplanes and used them to strike various targets on the East Coast, including the Pentagon and the World Trade Center. It is said that "people who remember 9/11 will never forget."

Why do you think September 11 is such a big deal when there have been many other wars and events that have cost far more lives? What does the above picture say to you?
