Yes, we get it. You Googled some combination of "9/11" and "Jenga" and you really, really want to share the results with us.

They say that everyone remembers where they were when the towers were hit, I don't and I am not sure what to think of it. Surely others here don't remember either?

I don't remember shit, possibly because we never had t.v. that worked during those times so I didn't hear about it until a few days after it had actually happened.

I can tell you exactly what I was doing at that time: I was sleeping.

Ah I remember that day not being much of a big deal really, everyone was freaking out in English class and I was sad that I couldn't go home like everyone else who's parents freaked out and picked them up, likely because I think they evacuated NASA nearby and people were concerns they would hit the ship channel or such. It was a well founded terror at the time.

I'm sorry, I tend to have random outbursts at times. Sugar effects my mind very badly.
As for the day the towers were hit, I can't remember if I was sleeping during that time, I was around age 5. I overheard my parents crying, but I never bothered to ask.
I do remember them buying a documentry about it, but nobody explained to me what had happened.

my copy of the book that i ordered for my friend came in.
Osama on the left, and a "terrorist" on the right imagining his "reward" for the deeds.
Let's Roll!
there are a few activities and bits about our history of freedom, what it means and all that. so it isnt just, ZOMG TERRORIZERS!
overall a really awkward way to tell children in my view. i do find it really hard to explain to my 5(6??) year old nephew what happened. i'm not sure i'm ever going to find a way to tell him that doesn't give him a bad view of people in the world, or make him really upset.

Calling you on your bullshit.
At least 12 double blind randomised controlled trials have examined how children react to diets containing different levels of sugar. None of these studies, not even studies looking specifically at children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, could detect any differences in behaviour between the children who had sugar and those who did not. This includes sugar from sweets, chocolate, and natural sources. Even in studies of those who were considered “sensitive” to sugar, children did not behave differently after eating sugar full or sugar-free diets.
Scientists have even studied how parents react to their kids on sugar. When parents are told their child has been given a drink containing sugar, but it is actually sugar-free, they rate the behaviour as more hyperactive than those not given the drink. In fact, the differences in behavior between the two groups were all in the parents’ minds.

And knowing is half the battle!
Anyways, I felt like this thing is a really bad joke. But yeah, I wouldn't feel like it would be so bad if they actually made an effort to portray regular Islamic people at all. And if the word Muslim wasn't always accompanied by the word extremist or terrorist.

Sugar consumption is associated with cavities though! This has been documented!

On topic:
You can't just find this at any little store, can you?
You might want to try a thing called, their website. http://www.bigcoloringbook.com/
For just about $10* you can have it shipped to your home.
*estimated estimate based on what i paid
New owner of said coloring book was hysterical at the ludicrous idea of the coloring book. And set away to coloring in nyan-eleven right away.

I was living in San Diego when it happened. I had just finished breakfast and was getting ready to leave when my Mom came across it on the television. I was floored, angry, confused. I was 14 at the time God that was forever ago. Its hard to grasp something like that especially when my step father was active duty spec war at the time. When you're told every day that the US is the greatest country in the world and could never be attacked.

And to think, people our age were growing up with the idea that "America is invincible, we're so fucking great all the time, no need to worry". Generations before us had the Cold War looming over their heads, and the generations ahead will live in fear of terrorism.

NOW WITH TRADING CARDS!
They made a second volume, oh dear.
Time to get far far away from their mailing list. I do detest how they mispelt and used the 'TMZ Society' spelling for UBL.

I believe that history should be remembered, it's part of everyone's history now and we can't change it.

That may be so, but how we bring forth history to others is also an issue. All those jokes about Hitler do not exactly pay much respect to the situation, I fear this book series is just like them.

well if they made a 9/11 coloring book it just brings to reason that they might make a coloring book on the my lai Massacre (Vietnam war March 16th 1968)
