I Grieve Septmber 11th - 21/09/01 03:33 PM

After the events of September 11th weighing heavy on my soul with all the emotions I have seen at my job covering the L.A. effects of the story and seeing too much raw video....with the conflicts going on among AMERICANS here on XOC....I decide to do something therapeutic. I made a 8 minute Quicktime movie to let out my emotions.

The movie can be found on my website. The file is large at 26MB eek but I think it will be worth your time to download. Hit download then go get a cup of coffee wink

I have also edited a smaller version for people with dial-ups. It is only 11MB eek
I know that is still large but it is the smallest I could make and still be viewable. Hit download then go out to eat wink

UNITED WE STAND. DIVIDED WE FALL

Yes it is.

The song was deep in my subconscious along with a song by Jane Siberry. They both popped into my conscious Thurday morning at 2 AM. Both songs expressed how I felt. Peter Gabriel's song just nailed it for me because every word could be visual complimented. Jane's song was almost a match.

Most of my computer problems are between the keyboard and the chair.

LAXterra- Thanks for spending the time to put that together. It was very moving. I hope you don't mind me keeping a copy of it for myself to reflect on it from time to time. If you have a larger version that you'd be willing to burn onto a CD, I'd be willing to pay for it.
