I was putting on my shoes and getting ready for work. At the time, only the first plane had hit. I was actually sitting there laughing, and telling my GF at the time "Look at this idiot that flew into the building. How fucking stupid do you have to be?" I looked back at the TV at the exact moment the second plane flew into the shot and slammed into the building. I stopped laughing. At the time I was living on Long Island. I could see the smoke trails from my apartment. I was scared shitless.
As a funny side note: I worked for a jew. Everyone in the office DID come in, but left shortly after the PA plane went down. He docked every single workers pay for the day.
