This is a really good tribute the old Kevin and Bean show did years ago:

I was in New Jersey on 911 for my sister's funeral. That's the reason the date is extra saddening for me.

I was watching the morning news when the first plane hit. It looked like a pilot error. About fifteen minutes later a reporter on the scene said OMG here comes another one. That's when I knew something was wrong.

Around a half hour later I hear jets overhead. I thought to myself they're going to be diving into the neighborhoods. I went across the the street to the church lot so I would be able to see where the planes would be crashing.

The planes I heard were fighter jets headed to NY.

I went up to Orange Mountains. From there you can see NY. I could see the smoke from the towers. It was a huge plumb of smoke rising.

911 is a day I'll never forget.
