Why is there a Blackhawk copter circling around my Houston officebuilding?

Any Houstonions around? It's in the Greenway area. It's been this way for the past 30 minutes. I didn't know it was a black hawk. I told a co-worker it was all black and no writings...he said it was a blackhawk.

1. Possibly someone important in the area

They kinda hang around to make sure nothing bad happens and if it does they are right there.

2. Maybe Dimbo Discovered

One of his Pioneers was contributing to the Democrats and declared him to be a terrorist?

4. No troops to show off for Veteran's Day

5. It's DHS and they're looking for YOU, you evil DUer...

:D

I'm in a building near the Galleria and I havn't seen any unidentified helicopters today, although we usually have pretty brisk traffic at the Williams Tower heliport. Are there any administration mucky mucks here today?

8. I could see the guns sticking out on the sides.

I need to keep my binoculars up here more often.

7. It is the Police Patrols, snooping on people in their apartments.

Pay them no attention; they do not matter. Only the Thought Police matter.

Saw three today. They seemed to be headed into town. Then they came back.
