TAH goes on the road
Yesterday, our buddy, Pete Hegseth of Concerned Veterans for America invited us to live blog the Republican National Convention in Tampa next week, at their expense. So I jumped at it and then invited myself to the Democrat National Convention the following week in Charlotte, NC, ya know cuz I’m into the whole nonpartisan thing these days.
I’m actually nonpartisan only because both of the national parties piss me off. That doesn’t mean I’m any less conservative than I ever was – I just don’t attach myself to any party because they both suck canal water. But, if you don’t hear from me occasionally, that’s why. By the way, I noticed that we get a lot of traffic from Tampa (I wonder who is in Tampa that would be interested in what we have to say) – but I’ve got several hours off on Wednesday next week if anyone wants to meet up, let me know.
Then sometime in the next several weeks, TSO is taking an exciting embed with the Marines in Senegal to report back to us what is going on in Africa. I think I’d rather spend time with the Marines in Africa than with politicians just about anywhere, but that’s just how this one shakes out.
So we’ve got some interesting stuff planned for TAH, better buckle up.

I have an aunt living in Saint Pete and a mother-in-law living in nearby Hillsborough County. Maybe they’ve been upping your numbers, Jonn.
I hope you drew a kevlar vest, helmet and extra ammo.
Safe journey.
“I noticed that we get a lot of traffic from Tampa (I wonder who is in Tampa that would be interested in what we have to say)”
Oooh, oooh, I know!! Say hi for me, also, if you meet up.
John, I’m in Tampa. I’ll shoot you an email. I’d like to buy you a beer or 6.
Are you planning on marching with Kokesh and the Paulbot Brigade?
&$%#@! That should say Jonn not John. Stupid decaf!
If TSO can get an embed with jarheads, can he swing me an embed with the Swedish Air Force Female Bikini Squadron?
Keep your heads down…both of ya…
You guys are the shit!!!
Jonn..if you feel like a three hour ride across Florida, I manage the Marina (and Tiki Bar) at Patrick AFB, be happy to buy you a cold beverage of your choice.
Jonn, did you lose the coin toss? Or is it TSO’s legion connection? Good Luck and to a safe return. Joe
I want to go to Senegal. Can I go to Senegal? Could someone look after my cats for me?
PH2, air mail them to me in Phoenix. I have a closet they’d fit in, nicely!?
Yat Yas, you are too funny!!
Ex-PH2, only for you!;)
I’m pretty sure my German Shepherd would love to cat sit Ex-Ph2.
Grunt, my Mikey likes dogs. I had a Shepherd long ago, when the Mikester was a mere kitten. Used to hang onto her nose.
Joe Biden has announced today that he’s going to crash the GOP campaign in Tampa. Maybe Jonn can catch his sleeve and get something out of him, like a beer maybe?
Also, Tropical Storm Isaac is heading in that general direction, so could we get some storm photos?
Safe trip, TSO.
And so Lilyea? IF you get laid over here in the ATL, I expect to see your uglier mug than mine on my front door step.
Jonn,
I doubt its anything you can’t handle but we’re going to be having a hurricane here next week, well Tropical Storm, but they’re projecting it to be damn close and they’re unpredictable as you undoubtedly know.
Navy has something pretty useful though to keep an eye on it. Its http://www.nrlmry.navy.mil/TC.html
They update about twice a day and its about the only place you’re going to find polar orbiting sat imagery from DoD and NOAA.
