"I took my seat in the helicopter and strapped in, exhausted. Dino tapped me on the shoulder (can’t hear in a blackhawk) and pointed out the window. I looked out and saw that the entire population fo the camp was standing in a big clump and waving big waves. They weren’t smiling. Just waving. We waved back and they waved bigger. The blackhawks took off, kicking up the dust and we watched out the windows as they covered their faces. As we shot up into the air, we saw them turn their backs and wander back into the tiny space of their bizzarre life. I closed my eyes and felt a wave of raw emotion rip my whole body open as we crossed back over the brown paper bag."
Louis CK, writing about his USO tour.
On top of being my favorite comedian, Louis is also a photography enthusiast (and a damn good photographer) and happens to write in a very frank, conversational and honest style — not unlike his stand-up. His series of blogs about his USO tour distracted me from work today.. his ability to recall events and details makes for an awesome read. I crave good blogs like his.
