I was in Lisbon for business. The first word came in while we were out for a coffee break, in a twisted way, claiming that it was the war planes that hit Manhattan and that Empire State Building was down.
I felt this tantalizing wave going down my spine, almost as if I was electrocuted.
I left everything in the meeting room and rushed out the street to hail a cab back to my hotel. On the way, the cab driver switched his radio to a station with an English broadcast, and finally I was able to get an idea of what was happening.
The following 2 hours were a nightmare as I desperately tried to get a hold of my kids on the phone to make sure they were home and safe. Thank god the call finally went through and they were o.k. I spent the rest of the day sitting at the lobby with other folks from the States, glued to CNN Europe, watching all those gruesome events in graphic details, sobbing and crying.......
well, if the love "stops" you send him 20 photos and tell him: here honey, pick out your own pic and send rest back to me, as I can't remember what you look like
