The Boys in Blue Are Back in Town

Woo hoo! That annual Spring rite of passage ~ the return of the Navy Blue Angels ~ to NAS Pensacola, FL has been completed and their spiffy ‘lawn darts’ (F/A-18 Hornets, for fighter types) are parked safely on the tarmac at Sherman Field. That means, come next Tuesday (and every Tues/Weds morning thereafter ’til fall, rock ON!), they will be roaring over the house and shaking the plates off the wall. Man oh MAN, it’s shit HOT (Sierra Hotel in polite company) to live here.
My favorite Blues Photo for those who haven’t seen it yet. Makes me cry everytime. (And the UAW can kiss my ever lovin’, lily white…well, you get it.)
**There’s also a special on the Discovery Channel tonight at 10 p.m. EST (check your local listings {8^P) called A Year in the Life:The Blue Angels ~ Becoming Blue I have no idea if it’s a treacley mess or bitchin’ documentary, but might well be worth takin’ a peek at.
***UPDATE: I lied ~ They’re over the house RIGHT NOW!!! Woooo Hooooooo!!!!!
