American Flight 11, United Flight 175, the Pentagon, American Flight 77, United Flight 93, and the World Trade Center
I will remember one of the 2996.
Michael Uliano probably would have preferred to be somewhere other than at the 105th Floor of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. An options broker for Cantor Fitzgerald, Michael enjoyed his work but would rather have been an actor. Surpassing his love of the stage was his love for fishing. To his fishing lure customers on the net he was known as Artie Fishhills, a play on the word artificial because of his knack for tying fishing flies. So if he could have Mike might have been fishing and clamming off Cape Cod in his old ’73 Jeep with the Shark’s mouth grill instead of one of millions of New Yorkers reporting to duty at thousands of desks across the world’s financial nerve center.

Michael acted off Broadway and was working on a screenplay. He so loved acting that he endured the amusement of his fellow Ithaca College football players and took ballet lessons. Many of those expressing fond memories of Michael at Legacy.com remember him on the stage or the football field. As quarterback of Canton high school Mike’s Number 10 was retired. He is survived by his wife Linda Buffa, his mother Gail, and eight brothers and sisters.

LOL jows, I hadn't put it all together like that but you’re exactly right.
Swing over to Pen of Jen's to see the winners of the caption contest!!
It's one thing to think about how many died, it's quite another to put a name and face to those precious people. Thank you.
I have two blogs. One is called, "Anna's Place". I started it for those who have been touched by grief. I have experienced it in my own life. Never an easy walk, but with God, all things are possible.
P.S. Loved your caption at Pen of Jen... funny stuff! It feels good to laugh :)
