Yesterday afternoon we went to a wedding at a winery in Livermore (beautiful place with an interesting history).

As the officiant went through the vows with the bride and groom a couple of fighters roared over, drowning him out. He has to pause for a minute or so until they went away.

Twenty years ago I was in a garden in Thalwil, Switzerland, helping a friend with his weeding. A military jet was orbiting in the clear afternoon sky.

"The Army...has too much money," he muttered.
