Wish I had a digital camera -- came home this Saturday morning to the site
of an Army Jeep and Uniformed camo garb delivering Christmas gifts to my
neighbors across the street, Mom taking pics of her 2 little boys with the
troops in front of the jeep.

This comes just two days after the other night's South Austin "bomb blast"
followed five minutes later by repeated flyovers of what I presume to be the
Austin Police Department's flying gunship, er um, surveillance copter, uh
er, rescue helicopter. My girlfriend asked about the "gunshot" and I said,
"that was a small explosion, possibly an M80 firecracker." After she went to
sleep, I heard and saw a large unmarked "utility vehicle" idling curbside of
my house and the neighbors. I overhead comments like, "you just missed it,
there was a small explosion. The neighbors heard it also."

Just a normal week in the hood. Happy HoliDaze.
