Cool thread! 
I was around ten years old, and i used to watch "Twilight zone" Sometimes. I thought all of that is awesome stuff. Except if i watched it at my grandparents summer cottage and they were already sleeping, and i had to go outside to turn off the generator after watching TV.
Later it was X-files, i loved it.
But those are TV shows, i knew the difference between reality and fiction (These days i always don't but then i did). Then... i woke up in a hangover on September 11, 2001. Went to a nearby bar (i used to go to bars and night clubs when i was younger, but not anymore) I had a couple of beers, i think a Bloody Mary too and some shots. Friend texts me (brother of my girlfriend back then) and asks me if i want to come over, have a few beers, maybe watch a movie or BBQ or something) I replied "Sure, give me a moment to finish my beer and another minute to walk there"
He opens the door, a little bit pale faced, and said "I think that world war three has just started" And he is NOT the type of person to fool around with these kind of things. I look at him like
and he says "come to the living room, check the TV. Now." So i see other of the twin towers had been hit by a plane. "Look dude, this has to be an accident" i said, opened a beer, took a sip and saw live TV how the other tower got hit also... So there we sat, in the living room, both totally silent, two young dudes who were about to spend some nice time. Goodbye with the "nice" then...
Something did not add up there, and still doesn't. The whole 9/11 thing... I go by emotion, not by rationality, so i don't make any claims, i do not investigate, i leave that to the ones who use their brains also, not only their heart. But i googled a lot of course, found my way to abovetopsecret and there is no return to being "normal" ever again.
Thanks for letting me share, have a pleasant day everyone.
