22. I hate that kind of stuff!

I used to live in Colorado Springs in between Ft Carson and Peterson Air Force Base. Sometimes there would be all this aircraft up in the sky for no apparent reason. I'm an Army brat and I'd wonder if my friends in the military were being sent out on yet another deployment to Iraq or Afghanistan. On a night like tonight that would really have me wondering. As a matter of fact, I have a friend who still lives in the Springs and he told me yesterday that there's been all kinds of aircraft traffic over his house for the last few days. Wouldn't surprise me in the least if the Traitor gets us into another war so he can CYA.
