Rich Brown - Living My Life Out Loud!
Hello I'm Rich Brown and this is my personal website and blog. I'm just your simple, average, down to earth, professional, out gay man and aspiring circuit boy, living in Phoenix, Arizona with a few things to say while trying to find my place among all the scary, conservative, religious nuts in this sick and twisted world.

Tuesday, September 11, 2001
Today we have been witness to events that I think most of us could never have imagined. 4 planes were hijacked by terrorists. 1 plane was flown into the World Trade Center #1, the second plane was flown into the World Trade Center #2, the third plane was flown into the Pentagon, and the fourth plane was en route to the white house but for some reason crashed into a field in Somerset, Pennsylvania. In the end both World Trade Center towers imploded into themselves killing an undetermined number of people, and several other building in the area also fell. I think this will be one of the defining moments in all of our lives ... my god help us all.
Regarding the Attack on America:
I think the comment from EU External Relations Commissioner Chris Patten sums up the overwhelming serious of emotions everyone has felt today ... "This is one of those few days in life that one can actually say will change everything."
I cannot believe what has been going on in this country. I never thought in my lifetime I would really see something like this happen on American soil.
Such a terrible tragedy has occurred and my heart goes out to all of the innocent people that had to suffer as well as all my fellow Americans and their families. I hope that we, the citizens of the United States, can now get over our petty differences and come together as a country - as Americans - and work to not letting anyone cause this type of terror among us again. I hope that this is the end but somehow I think this may only be the beginning. Now is the time we all really have to come together and be Americans once again.
My sympathy goes out to everyone who has friends and family that were affected by this attack on our freedom. Be safe and remember -- always live life with no regrets and as if each day may be your last -- for you never truly know when it will be your last.
