Perhaps they were trying to strafe Barbara Boxer's Porsche Boxster.

You must have done something to piss them off! Were you smoking by chance?

Almost surely someone saying hello or goodbye to someone on the ground.

KRON-TV (channel 4) says they were Navy F-18s that were apparently just horsing around; and that the pilots may have some 'splainin' to do.

I also live in East Petaluma. I saw two F-18s flying at about 5000ft. One was doing tight turns with full afterburner. It was so cool! Loud, too. I'll be curious to see what it was all about.

That roar is the sound of freedom.
As for your tagline (Welcome to California. Now go home.),
we say something similar to Californians when they come to Washington State! : )

Though I was born and raised in California, my entire family hails from Bellingham, WA. Many still live there. We still love to visit our cabin on Lummi Island.

BTW...My tagline was a very popular bumpersticker in the late 70's.

I remember seeing your tagline during the '84 Olympics on bumper-stickers.

Ahww, C'mon!...Think of all the Democratic lawyers/blizzards/vultures drawn to the carcass, you'll see democratic lawyers in their natural habitat (chasing ambulances) after the carcass blows, from midday heat. ...a real Education for the chil'ren of America.

note to lawyers on FR, you are fine upstanding citizens...its' the very few lawyers, who tarnish your profession.
