Nice tribute G! Would you believe I met a survivor from the WTC...
Mine is up~
Excellent, excellent reminder.
Fantastic 55. Mine is not nearly as cool, but it is what it is.
That's really sad. Good one, G.
I'm up.
-smarmoofus
who could ever forget that fateful day...and the days that have ensued afterwards ...eventually leading to recession and depression...
Mine is up...
I thought you would never ask.
It's up!!!

A chilling tale in 55 words, and a great tribute to those horrible events that none of us will ever forget.
I'll post mine later but wanted to say thank you for not forgetting.
Wow! What a day that was. I will never forget. Great 55. Mine's up. jeNN
Touching tribute. My 55 is up as well. Find me HERE.
Now, please, PLEASE come visit my blog and my special 55 today. I have a gift to share with others if you do.

May you never know want.
Very touching Mr.G. It tells the whole story of all the hopes and dreams that were ended on that day we will never forget.
I remembered without a reminder this week...amazing...and I learned the linky thing...click here
wow, very chilling!! love it and mine is posted too!!
Third try; can't remember how this link thing works. If this doesn't work, I give up.

I know I'll never forget that day and I'm now where near New York City. I've never even been there. Great 55 G-Man.
I'll have one up soon and this week I'll try really really really hard to comment on other 55's this week. Oh, and answer the questions from my last week's 55. :P
Great tribute!!
Mine's HERE
I can't believe, for a minute, I did forget.
I'm still on a musical kick here.
Very moving 55, really touched me and caught me off guard at the end. Yes, let us never forget.
Mine is up.
This is absolutely stunning! Well done, Mr. Knowitall! One can NEVER forget, never.
Mine is here:

A terrible iconic day. It won't be forgotten.
You'll find mine here.
Oh that reminder is so sad. But yes... never will come this day and forget as dragons say...
Mine is UP
Thank you G-Man
Excellent. We can NEVER forget. Mine is up HERE. Aloha :)
None of us will forget 9/11. It was one of those days when it would have been wonderful if Superman could have flown around the globe and turned back time like he did in the movie.
On a lighter note, my Flash 55 for this week is a new twist on the age-old question Why Did the Chicken Cross the Road?.
I'll forget it when it ends. the business begun on that day is not yet over.
Such a sad 55. But 9/11 is too recent for us to forget.
What time do you people get up? It's 5:00 and 34 have commented before me.
Mine is posted
HERE.
And it's a groaner.
Glad to have found your blog. Sometimes I read about your "Friday Flash 55" however my English isnt good enough to particpate. Nevertheless there is NO German who doesnt remember 9/11. Regards across the pond
Whoa....this was a very disturbing piece this week. I don't know whether to cry or commend you...it's still such a very vivid, emotional memory for me.
Mine's posted too. As always, scroll down beyond my show n tell for Friday!
Have a great weekend Mr. G ---oh and I love the 'have a kick ass weekend' message you left me last Friday!! Love it.
very fitting 55, g-man.
have a great weekend sweet one!
Life is a mixture of A-Ha! and Oh no! moments. You captured both well.
Mine's up. Have a great weekend!
Wow - didn't see that coming.
Wouldn't the world be a happier place if we all just had a pillow fight? WTH????
Great post G-man and yes, mine is up!
smiles & YOU have a kick ass weekend as well!
Never forgotten.
Happy friday G-man!!
((hugs!!))

It is good to remmeber and in this way - you made it real.
Spank me for not coming by sooner - :P
Have an excellent weekend!
Oh and my link to you was broken! SO that is fixed now as well.
Have an excellent weekend!

I love it that you came by and read YESTERDAYS 1000 word blog ;oD
and I have one planned...so before you call it a day, well come see.
thanks to "proartz" I can (try) to post a direct link to my 55!
HERE.
No-one can forget that day G-man, but it's right that you remind us. x
Damn terr'ists.
Hey, I started a website called the Corrigendopedia. It's designed so that even you can understand what I'm talking about.
I'd keep updating it, but I'm in a swamp right now.
I picked the same topic. I was out in AZ back then and we woke up to the news. A sad day.
I wrote a tribute this year, and last, and will continue to do so. I will never forget, nor will I permit my children to forget.
Well, this is my first attempt for the Friday 55 although it's not fiction.

How do you do the link thing GMAN?
Very nice, G-Man!

They build a new one , one tower so far, so that could apply to today too.
I wore my 09-11-01 t-shirt from that day today.

Hey there G,
I may be late but its up. I love your 55 and We will never forget 9/11. I hope you have a great weekend.
galen, for how long will you continue to flash your 55ve?
Don't hate me, Mr. Knowitall! I actually did write a Friday 55, but didn't post it cos I wasn't happy with it. Sorry!!!!
Post something about State losing to the Chips, Ohio State caving in to USC, and our beloved Wolverines beating those peckerheads from Notre Dame!!!
I can now die a happy man... you can have my collectables, as I know they will be in good hands...
