I just saw pictures on the TV. First reports were the courtyard. They just showed new pictures on CNN; it was a helicopter pad out back near the intersection of two freeways. Commuter type plane.

How in the world did all these planes get hi-jacked? Is it that easy to sneak weapons on planes?

The plane hit the helicopter pad which cause some of the pentagon to catch on fire.

Good mornings America..NOT! This really hurts.

Just saw the footage of the WTC collapsing. Its the worst thing I've ever had to see. The footage, which the networks are now shosing show a second plane flying into the second tower and bursting into flames. The first building is in the way of the actual impact, but GAWD>

I hope those buildings were evacuated. NYC has got to be a mess. We are now under seige. this country will never be the same again as many of us will no longer feel safe. This really sicks.

My hopes and prayers go out to those of you with friends and family that may be involved in this tragedy. And I hope there are less victims than I expect there would be from a daytime attack like this.

Cell phones are not working here in the DC area. We have employees at the pentagaon...no word yet.
This is scary. Rumors say there's a hijacked plane from Dulles in the air.
But, I did just overhear that the car bomb reports from the state department are false.

Theres a lot of other activities going around the DC area as well, the Mall in DC is on fire.. gas station explosion in Crystal City, FAA building bombed, State building in DC bombed.. another plane crash at Camp David... theres another hijacked plane from St. Louis heading towards NY, another plane heading towards DC, 2 planes crash into the WTC, making BOTH collapse, plane crash in the Pentagon, making part of the building collapse.... supposedly theres another plane circling above Dulles airport and the White House or something... this is getting crazy.....
All communications to DC are impossible.. as well as to NY...
