I was 5 and have no real memory of it, but it was a big deal.
We didn’t know how bad it was until one or two days after the initial hit. I remember the very early news reports of a “near miss” and “sighs of relief”. I remember the NBC News Special Report during Saturday Night Live, the worst time for an actual news bulletin. I did not know anything was going on until I got home.
I saw the 2nd plane hit live during the Today show. Where were you when the news broke? I was born in 1980. Would you relent and do this after they rejected your offer the first time? I don’t give second chances to people as a general rule. Yes, I suppose it’s petty, but I think as the ones who own the house, they’re used to having all the power and they don’t like it when the tables are turned. They say they’re in a bind but if that’s the case then they shouldn’t have turned their noses up when I first offered. You only get one bite at the apple with me and if you say no, then I move on. They initially said no, but later changed their minds and asked to take me up on my offer.īut I’m not interested in doing it now. I offered to find a couple of other roommates and act as a sort of property manager in exchange for reduced rent. They’re moving and had initially planned to sell, but are having trouble getting acceptable offers and are considering renting it out. I currently rent a room in a house owned by my two housemates.
