So He Must Be Drunk?
I must come down on the side of David Gregory. He was undoubtedly NOT drunk, but why he persists in doing these shticks with Don Imus is beyond me. Gregory is quite a comic, but Imus always manages to make him look like an idiot.

Part of the usual shtick between Gregory and Imus is for Imus to indignantly asked “Are you drunk, David?” I cannot understand why this particular tête-à-tête has made the front pages, as it was quite mild compared to some I have heard. A number of times Imus has accused David Gregory of being the father of Lindy “Abu Ghraib” England’s unborn child. Then too - Gregory would always giggle.

hurricanes, military, United States 9:51 am

O.E.S. Project Web Log is posting about "Operation Enduring Service", a program that plans to retrofit mothballed combat stores ships and other obsolete but sea-worthy cargo ships to be able to provide complex emergency communications support that will be capable of replacing cell phone and radio towers lost in a hurricane. Crewed by the Coast Guard Auxiliary and supported by disaster-aid groups, these vessels could not only haul needed supplies to a coastal disaster area, but they could also transport first responders to a disaster zone while providing off shore housing to them.

Bob Owens (Confederate Yankee) is also posting about the plan here asking for support from the blogger world.
