Walter Reed Bacardi Freep 151, 7 March 2008

Posted on 03/08/2008 1:22:05 PM PST by BufordP
It was a dark and stormy rainy drizzly night. It must've been raining Bacardi because Tom the Red Hunter seemed a little inebriated. He babbled something about favoring high mileage standards for cars, the dictatorship of the SUV, the exploitation of the subcompact, and the class struggle for parking spaces. I was appalled. We argued heatedly about CAFE standards, the Caribou, ethanol, and the like. But there's no arguing with someone who's had too much rain to drink. I quickly alerted everyone, "Do NOT drink the rain!" At least not in large quantities and certainly not without the proper mixer. 151 rain will mess you up and make you forget supply-side economics and market forces. It'll make you talk up government regulation, energy conservation, increasing gas taxes. And give you a bloody awful hangover to boot. How ya feeling today, Tom? Hair of the dog. Then sober up and get back to reading Thomas Sowell. HEHEHEHE! I know Tom is going to get even with me big time when he writes his next AAR. I just want you all to know in advance, whatever he writes - all lies! HEHEHEHEHE!
Nothing much else to add. Though all the photos show us all bundled up and getting wet from the rain [..er..] Bacardi, it wasn't too cold. Bus arrived around 9:15pm and we called it a night. One hundred and fifty one to be exact. Honor roll: trooprally, BufordP, Cindy-True-Supporter, Tom the RedHunter, PleaDeal, USNRetired, Lureker Bill, Satin Patriot, RonGKirby, Fraxinus, kburi, and Nellie.

Nope, not yet. I'm sure he is planning his next AAR already, and
it'l be a hit piece on you, I mean the subject will be you
in concrete shoes, I mean you'll be the subject of his piece. And it will be written in stone.

We’ll be in Washington DC on vacation Friday March 21. Can a member of this chapter freepmail me on how to meet up with you? My wife, daughter, and I would really enjoy being a part of the action instead of just viewing it online.
