just to touch bases...

i've been so busy lately. please don't kill me if i don't post again for while; school and college aps are eating me alive.

oh, and my site is closed for today. don't get me wrong, i'm not pretending to be america's greatest patriot, and i don't want to go kill any muslims, but lives were lost senselessly. they deserve some respect on the one year anniversary.

that's about it.

How does showing respect for the dead makes you look like you want to kill Muslims? *Confused*

Anyways, I think today is a very difficult day to get through. I wanted to do some gesture, but I was afraid I would do it just for the sake of doing something on 9/11, and not for the selfless reasons I should . So I settled on an icon that shows both the American and Canadian flags.
I think closing your site for this day is a beautiful gesture.

thanks. i just had to put up a disclaimer of sorts, as i know many people who think 9/11 is above all else a reason to exact revenge on innocents who just happen to look like the monsters responsible. i don't want to take any sort of physical action; i just want to mourn the needless loss of lives.

once again, thanks. i felt as though it was the least i could do.
