Star Struck!

Holy Crap Bat Man!

I accepted Andi’s invitation to be one of five to “live blog” the 2006 Milblog Conference in D.C. on April 22nd (and I was very honored to have been asked!) but now I’m not sure I’ll be able to even function, let alone concentrate on what’s being said and done. Look at the firepower that’s going to be there!!!!!!

Pre-registration for military ends tomorrow (2/15) and then it’s open for everyone. Head on over to the site and register if you’re interested in meeting the big dogs and some wee pups.

I may have to drink heavily before the show. I know JP has offered to buy the first 20 rounds.

Xposted at the other site, too.

My Vacation

Filed under: Other Crap — GunnNutt @ 10:42 pm

I’m back! Woohoo ‘n stuff…

Thanks for all the comments you guys left on the previous posts! I’m really glad you followed the link from the blogger site. I’m still trying to figure out how to update the template here and use the editor, and go through a whole lot more emails than I expected. I’ll catch up sometime.

I went on a cruise last week and had a great time. I took a gazzillion pics but most of them are boring. Here are a few that aren’t too bad.

What's a dushi?

I don’t know what a “dushi” is, but this sign in an alley in Aruba makes me think that I don’t want to sing karaoke there.

Public pusher

I think this sign was on a street in Curacao. Would foreign drugs make a good gift?

St Marten Cuisine

Check out the last “special” dish. Eeeewwwwww!

Good advice

There’s always a stick-in-the-mud.
Club advertising

A little advertising for the Woodbridge Kart Club. This portal was close to the gangway and provided an irresistible opportunity for one of the traveling gang.

My New Blog Home

I’m really tired of Blogger being up and down and losing posts!

Osama on a Stick

Filed under: WRAMC — GunnNutt @ 12:46 am

Yes, this is the crappiest post ever. I just created this blog because Blogger crapped out and took 5 hours of posting with it.

What started out as a beautiful day, turned into an equally wonderful night! We again occupied ALL FOUR CORNERS in front of Walter Reed.

First arrivals. Some flags always go up.

Occupying the corner formerly held by commies.

I don’t know why I can’t get the next picture to move down. No matter how many CR or breaks I enter, they just disappear and the pic moves back up.

Spirited cheerleader

A spirited cheerleader. We have a group of very lovely young ladies who scream “hooray!” and such every time a horn honks or someone waves or shouts. They’re such a trip!

I apologize for the terrible formatting and lack of content. I’ll figure how to use this editor at some point.
By the time you read this I will be snockered with a few dozen friends somewhere in the Caribbean.
I’ll be back on Feb. 13.
