My apartment was just buzzed by a US fighter plane. This is the fourth time this has happened.
I don't like it.
Part of my problem is that I have an irrational fear of what would happen if the plane, say, crashed into my building. As solid as these brick walls are, I might have some straigtening up to after such an accident.
Another problem I have with the flyovers is that they aren't announced (at least, I never see anything about them). So from out of the blue, I hear a very loud and doplered sound approaching my apartment. Am I too neutrotic? I don't know. It's not the physics of flying that I have a problem with. I have little faith in the people that operate and maintain these machines. People fail more often than physics.
Then perhaps you should find an apartment that has been pre-disastered.Part of my problem is that I have an irrational fear of what would happen if the plane, say, crashed into my building.
Then perhaps you should move someplace where the Air Force pre-announces their flight plans (just in case anyone has a spare stinger missle they want to test out, or wants to leave home and avoid the noise).Another problem I have with the flyovers is that they aren't announced (at least, I never see anything about them).

Steven Tyler singing the national anthem
Was that what that was? I thought Satanists had taken over the park and had begun sacrificing cats and lambs to their Dark Overlord.
