Just heard 'em.

Is it because of memories of Iceman that makes me "happy" whenever I hear the Angels roar past?

Let's all sing that horrid song "And I'm proud to be an American where I know at least I'm free" .

And remember to goose step!

Oh good grief. Again?

They are loud and go fast and look neat. Some folks think that's pretty cool.

I've had a crappy week so far. To quote the Calvin and Hobbes strip where their rained-out camping trip is saved by a last-day jetski ride (or something similar): "Sometimes noise and speed make things all better."

Maybe it was the one where the babysitter broke his heart. Regardless, thats how I feel right about now.

Ah yes. One can tell it's summer time in Seattle when everyone crawls out of the woodwork to bitch about a little noise. They just roared over my house. I loved it.

Don't even care about your patriotism here, I'm in it for the machinery.

I need them to fly over downtown a couple more times and I'll be just great.

@3 I initially thought that was an X-Men reference and then I realized it was a Top Gun reference. Show what I spent the 80s doing.

Yeah, hate that they are giant bazillion dollar death machines but, FUCKING AWESOME! I love watching them and love the noise. Bring it on.

Good thing it's sunny tomorrow.

I was born at a US Air Force Base, as was my dad.

Fly high!

Was I the only person who thought this was a Doctor Who reference? http://www.themarysue.com/weeping-angel-…
