Today is Saturday, Sept. 11, the 254th day of 2021.
There are 111 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History:

On Sept. 11, 2001, nearly 3,000 people were killed as 19 al-Qaida hijackers seized control of four jetliners, sending two of the planes into New York’s World Trade Center, one into the Pentagon and the fourth into a field in western Pennsylvania.

On this date:

In 1789, Alexander Hamilton was appointed the first U.S. Secretary of the Treasury.

In 1814, an American fleet scored a decisive victory over the British in the Battle of Lake Champlain in the War of 1812.

In 1936, Boulder Dam (now Hoover Dam) began operation as President Franklin D. Roosevelt pressed a key in Washington to signal the startup of the dam’s first hydroelectric generator.

In 1941, groundbreaking took place for the Pentagon. In a speech that drew accusations of anti-Semitism, Charles A. Lindbergh told an America First rally in Des Moines, Iowa, that “the British, the Jewish and the Roosevelt administration” were pushing the United States toward war.

In 1967, the comedy-variety program “The Carol Burnett Show” premiered on CBS.

In 1973, Chilean President Salvador Allende (ah-YEN’-day) died during a violent military coup.

In 1985, Pete Rose of the Cincinnati Reds cracked career hit number 4,192 off Eric Show (rhymes with “how”) of the San Diego Padres, eclipsing the record held by Ty Cobb. (The Reds won the game, 2-0).

In 2003, actor John Ritter died six days before his 55th birthday at Providence St. Joseph Medical Center in Burbank, California — the same hospital where he was born in 1948.

In 2006, in a prime-time address, President George W. Bush invoked the memory of the victims of the 9/11 attacks as he staunchly defended the war in Iraq, though he acknowledged that Saddam Hussein was not responsible for the attacks.

In 2008, presidential candidates John McCain and Barack Obama put aside politics as they visited ground zero together on the anniversary of 9/11 to honor its victims.

In 2012, a mob armed with guns and grenades launched a fiery nightlong attack on a U.S. diplomatic outpost and a CIA annex in Benghazi, Libya, killing U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans.

In 2015, a crane collapsed onto the Grand Mosque in Mecca, killing 111 people ahead of the annual hajj pilgrimage. Roberta Vinci stunned Serena Williams to end her Grand Slam bid in one of the greatest upsets in tennis history; the 43rd-ranked Italian won 2-6, 6-4, 6-4 in the U.S. Open semifinals.

Ten years ago: The nation and the world marked the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. In New York, a tree-covered memorial plaza at ground zero opened to the families of the victims for the first time. President Barack Obama, after visiting the sites where terrorists struck, declared: “It will be said of us that we kept that faith; that we took a painful blow, and emerged stronger.”

Five years ago: The U.S. marked the 15th anniversary of 9/11 with the solemn roll call of the dead at ground zero. Hillary Clinton abruptly left after feeling “overheated,” according to her campaign, and hours later her doctor disclosed that the Democratic presidential nominee had pneumonia. Stan Wawrinka wore Novak Djokovic (NOH’-vak JOH’-kuh-vich) down and beat the defending champion 6-7 (1), 6-4, 7-5, 6-3 for his first U.S. Open title and third Grand Slam trophy overall.

One year ago: President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden observed the 19th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks as commemorations were altered or scaled back by the coronavirus; Biden approached those who’d lost loved ones at ground zero and shared the pain of his own losses, while Trump vowed that “America will always rise up, stand tall and fight back.” Bahrain agreed to normalize relations with Israel, becoming the latest Arab nation to do so as part of a broader diplomatic push by the Trump administration to ease the Jewish state’s relative isolation in the Middle East. Smoke pollution from wildfires raging in California and across the Pacific Northwest worsened in San Francisco, Seattle and Portland, Oregon, giving those cities and others in the region some of the world’s worst air quality. Toots Hibbert, one of reggae’s founders and most beloved stars, died in Jamaica at 77.

My dog is going to be okay. He broke out from being shaved from his ultrasound yesterday. He is on meds for some existing conditions. His blood work came back as well as you could ask for. He does have to get through this razor burn though. I swear sometimes you just want to scream (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210911/c041832cf6619527475cb166826c3ce1.jpg)

Sorry to hear that. I'm sure everyone will be ok. The symptoms shouldn't be too bad because of the vaccines.

By the way, twinsies on a kid staying home Friday with a sore throat. Had her tested for COVID-19 and strep and tests came back negative for both. Doctor said that's there are a lot viruses going around. Sure enough she was feeling much better today.

So now the wife, who's been feeling more rundown than usual, and my oldest, who stayed home from school Friday with a sore throat, are getting tested tomorrow. Sheesh.

Sorry to hear that. I'm sure everyone will be ok. The symptoms shouldn't be too bad because of the vaccines.

By the way, twinsies on a kid staying home Friday with a sore throat. Had her tested for COVID-19 and strep and tests came back negative for both. Doctor said that's there are a lot viruses going around. Sure enough she was feeling much better today.
Probably lots going around, and I'm sure their immune systems are lax because of not being tested for 17 months. Susceptible to lots of stuff at this point.
