earlier today david and i were going to get coffee and both of us remarked at how amazingly quiet the sky was ... we live next to a local airport that is quite busy ... and in the vacinity of 4 major airports so you can always hear the planes ... and for 3 days we hadn't heard a one ... then tonight when we were getting coffee which is right across from the airport the sound of the one solitary jet taking off was heart stopping ... it was loud ... you could feel the vibration ... it was fast ... unlike a regular plane taking off ... and it made me so pissed off that someone can take the calmness of safety away from me ... from millions ... the sound of that jet shook both david and i up ...
