Rolling Down The River

On the AM 1280 The Patriot boat cruise with Hugh Hewitt, Michael Medved, and Mike Gallagher. Here's a shot of downtown Minneapolis:



Hugh with the delightfully feisty Tordas ("Jay Larson get to work!"):




And finally Hugh with the Atomizer, JB Doubtless, and the Elder:




It was a beautiful day for a cruise on the mighty Mississippi and the bar had plenty of Bombay Sapphire on hand. We had a great time conversing with many people including the lovely and engaging MN State Senator Michele Bachmann, Daniel Mathais (running for Congress in the 5th District), the affable Generalissimo Duane, James Lileks and a couple of his chums (I believe it was the Giant Uzbek and the Crazy Finn), and of course the three national radio hosts.

Our only disappointment was that we did not get a ride in a J-goo-R as Hugh had promised in a radio ad. Apparently the Patriot's Jay Larson was unable to come through with the luxury car. Instead Hugh and Duane were chauffeured about town in this slick ride.

But on a happier note (at least for us) Hugh did agree to cut us in for a 10% taste on all future ads where he uses the term Northern Alliance. Let the royalty checks start rolling in.
