1. Is it one of those militarism holidays? If not,
  2. Is something horrific happening in the news? (Checks news headlines) If not,
  3. Is it the weekend? Maybe there’s a sports game. Somehow sports games are considered a good use of military jets.
  4. I hope I never start expecting bombs when I hear them.
  5. Maybe whatever horrific event is happening has had time to reach the news now. (Checks the headlines again.)

The only reason I’d know a military jet is it usually is a militarism holiday when you hear fwooosh and some jet is going fast and low. Or there will be more than one.

If there is a different community I should have posted this in that still has a fair number of subscribers, let me know.

Living near an airport that the National Guard uses makes a not unusual event. Air shows too.
