"I’ve got two daughters who will have to make their way in this skinny-obsessed world, and it worries me, because I don’t want them to be empty-headed, self-obsessed, emaciated clones; I’d rather they were independent, interesting, idealistic, kind, opinionated, original, funny - a thousand things, before ‘thin’. And frankly, I’d rather they didn’t give a gust of stinking chihuahua flatulence whether the woman standing next to them has fleshier knees than they do. Let my girls be Hermiones, rather than Pansy Parkinsons. Let them never be Stupid Girls."
~ J.K. Rowling
I think its awesome that you made a point to remember this event. I think after 9/11, the OKC bombing has gone on to be forgotten by the general population.
ReplyDeleteIt makes so sad to see the 19 little chairs at the memorial. I was fairly young, and we lived in another country, but I still remember that sad day.
ReplyDeleteI remember being home sick from school that day. Strangely enough, I was home sick from work the day they executed Timothy McVeigh. I'm just glad he didnt live long enough to see the events of 9/11--that man was a monster! I thought they found John Doe#2, but he got a life sentence?? I could be wrong...
ReplyDeleteI will never forget that day, thank you for posting this!
