A deep dive into digital marketing

I was in NYC with my wife and two business associates/friends for an award show. And a lucky award show it was, as had we not been nominated I would have been at the Pentagon at a meeting, which is a whole other story. So while strange to say, I count myself lucky to be in Mid-Town on 9/11.

It’s always a strange day for me as I’m sure it is for many and it was a very strange couple of days before we could get a rental car to drive back to Chicago. The attached picture is from Sept 12, 2001 at about 9:15 in the morning in Times Square, practically deserted.

So for me today, despite it’s outwardly normal appearace, is a day to stop and reflect a bit. To wish safe passage and God Speed to my cousin headed to Iraq in a few days. And to remember: the friends lost at the Pentagon, the people walking uptown covered in dust, the emptiness of Time Square during rush hour and most of all to never forget.
