Fifteen years ago today...

was the first World Trade Center bombing.

I was out of the stock and bond business by then but had a friend who was at a meeting at the restaurant, Windows of the World. She was 8 months pregnant and heavily so. She had to walk all the way down from the 107th floor in the cold and dark, breathing thick black smoke. She made it, but was hospitalized for a few days with respiratory problems. The baby was fine.

I still curse you bin Laden.
