Plan to go to the farmers market on Sat with a friend, then have breakfast and probably see the movie Twisters.

I remember going to the Twister ride at Disney, it scared the crap out of my young son, something I will always remember. It was kind of cool.

Good point, I sat a similar test (many) years ago after a big night on the town, three hours' sleep, and a 400 mile hungover drive down the island, and I aced it.

I managed through my Citi Bank Costco Visa card to get tickets to Billy Joel's last concert at Madison Square Garden on Thursday night. Then on Friday morning Lauren and I will visit the 9-11 Memorial and Museum in NYC. I should turn out to be an emotional experience for me. As fate would have it I was on the firth plane on the morning of 9-11. I was on a United Airlines flight from Dulles Airport in Washington (IAD in a Boeing 767 that never got off the ground due to a problem with the rudder. As you may know from my previous communications I was on the fifth plane on
9-11 that never got off the ground from Dulles Airport on a United Airlines Boeing
767 from IAD to Denver as I was headed to Fort Huachuca In AZ. Becuase their
was a problem with the rudder. The technicians made several trips up to the
cockpit and went back in forth.
In May of 2009 at a S-2000 Car Club meet friends of mind told me that I was on
the fifth airplane that never got off of the ground. As a friend of hers was a flight
attendant on that flight that when the FBI went over the passenger manifest
confirmed that there were hi-jackers on my plane.
Tonight at the American Legion Post 10 in Manassas VA I bumped into a friend
of my mine and a friend of hers that both have Top Secret/ SCI clearances
(including the Life Style clearance interview)
The friend of my fiend is married to the retired Sheriff of Alexandria VA where
Moussaoui was jailed and he was the only person that Moussaoui would talk
too. He confirmed that he was on the fifth plane that never got of of the ground.

We will start our weekend today. Meeting up with my SC sister and brother in law at local brewery, then likely grabbing a bite to eat. No other concrete plans as of yet.
