I'm not sure how true it is, but there seems to be a lot of middle class women who are into the WTC shrine thing. It could be just where I live, but my wife is into quilting and I was surprised how much 9-11 stuff was in the magazines she gets.
That's a bit creepy. But then whatever eases there pain.
And we must remember - there are a lot of people who have shrines to Elvis.
Yeah, but I think music is one thing. A woman in Decatur IL can have been truely effected by Elvis' music. I'm a Star Wars superfreak. But 9/11? A woman in Decatur IL has no reason to own a quilt with a 9/11 theme.
The government has decided, for all of us, that it's a day that changed everything. And they're right. It changed everything that doesn't mean anything. But the really important stuff, we have done not one damned thing about...except make quilts, commemorative coins, television documentaries that drone on and on, etc.
So, to tie it into the thread topic: I'm for which ever candidate that gets the media and every twisted-panty, middle age woman who thinks the world changed that day, to shut the hell up.
