20 October 2011 is the Death Day of Libya's Terrorist Dictator Muammar Gaddafi.
After ruling for 42 years with an iron fist, his citizens has revolted.  Living a lifetime of power and luxury, and quirky behaviour like having 40 female virgin bodyguards, his last moments were spent hiding in this concrete drain.   Hopefully Libya will have a new good democratic government, not a corrupt one.

World Trade Tower Bombings

Year 2001 - Sept 11 : A horrifying day the world will never forget.
Attack on the innocent in America by evil deviant muslim terrorists: Al-Qaeda, led by Osama Bin Laden.
Our world in great need of love and peace.




The 2 laser lights indicate the site where the twin towers used to be.




Many firemen,paramedics, volunteers, survivors,passers-by died from health complications from inhalation of the toxic gas, smoke and dust. There were about 10,000 volunteers and many were cancer-stricken, lung problems etc. later on in their life.

After seeing this gloomy video, needs to uplift my mood a bit. So I listen to my all time favourite singer Michael Jackson :-

Kennedy & Lincoln trivia

HISTORY MYSTERY - of 2 American Presidents. Really weird, deja-vu ?after a 100 year gap?
Have a history teacher explain this, if they can.

Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846.
John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946.

Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860.
John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960.

Both were particularly concerned with civil rights.
Both wives lost their children while living in the White House.

Both Presidents were shot on a Friday.
Both Presidents were shot in the head.

Now it gets really weird.

Lincoln 's secretary was named Kennedy.
Kennedy's Secretary was named Lincoln .

Both were assassinated by Southerners.
Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson.

Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln , was born in 1808.
Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908.

John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln , was born in 1839.
Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939.

Both assassins were known by their three names.
Both names are composed of fifteen letters.

Now hang on to your seat.

Lincoln was shot at the theatre named 'Ford'.
Kennedy was shot in a car called ' Lincoln ' made by 'Ford'.

Lincoln was shot in a theatre and his assassin ran and hid in a warehouse. Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and his assassin ran and hid in a theatre.

Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials.

And here's the kicker...
A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe , Maryland
A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe.

...........~............~wow, so freaky!
