Two years and about a month ago I was in Baton Rouge dealing with life in the aftermath. It felt like a war zone most of the time because of the helicopters flying back and forth from New Orleans to Baton Rouge. I was riding down Florida Blvd one afternoon and we found ourselves under Marine One helicopter and the two copters riding with it as Bush made one of his legendary tours of no good through the barren wastelands.

Tonight as I was coming out of school from classes and studying, I heard a helicopter, looked up and saw it again. This time it few over me 4 times. I think they were looking at the different parts of the canals. Bush is the only man I know of that can look away from a horrible accident with no remorse. Everyone else, while the horrifying news may pass and daily life resumes so you're not thinking of it every moment, you still have to look anytime you pass a bad accident on the road, a train wreck, a building on fire as a plane crashes into the one next to it.....the worst storm damage in a hundred years. You have to look. You can't not look. You feel empathy, sympathy, hurt...pain. Yet you look.

Can you buy a filter that would allow you to be able to not see it? Not care? Or do those only come with certain politicians and their agendas? It must be part of that packaged deal.

*shrugs*

OT: Seeing everything in a new light and with new clarity can be incredibly distracting when you're driving 75mph on the interstate....
