So Jim’s just back from two years in Turkey, while Marshall’s hanging out in London, Brussels, and Paris.

Well screw you two, because I’m going to ST. LOUIS(!) in a month for the NRA Annual Meetings.

And actually, I’m not really kidding. If you’ve never been to an Annual Meeting of the NRA, it’s truly an awesome and awe-inspiring time.

So enjoy your Big Ben and your Eiffel Tower, Marshall. In just a few weeks I’ll be taking in the sights and sounds at the new Busch Stadium and wandering the aisles of the convention center. So there.

Marshall: In the final anaylsis, I would take a Sunday afternoon game at Busch stadium over a day at the Louvre anytime.

Jim: Why choose? It’s a big world. If any Democratic presidential candidates address the NRA convention, maybe I can head out there as a business trip…
