I can't wait for the first 9/11 zero-interest-for-four-full-years-plus-we-pay-your-sales-tax!!!! furniture (or mattress) sale. That's when 9/11 hits the big time. Until then, it will never be a true American day of remembrance.

Ha! Perfect. "You thought the WTC went down fast? Well wait to you see our prices!"

"It's almost an attack on capitalism! Come on down!"

Day off the buildings collapse I was waiting tables at an italian restaurant. We served a cannoli that was not tubular but rather ricotta fililng between stacked wafers. It was a "cannoli tower" so to speak. I served one to an idiot at one of my tables and he took his fork, knocked the cannoli tower down and said "look, the World Trade Center" and laughed. It had only been hours. -Bad taste knows no bounds.

Ouch, that's way too soon. Gallows humor is one thing, but that sounds like something else.
