The Across America Tour, Day Four: Off to Chicago!
By Jeff Burton
We’re on our way into day 4 and destination Chicago! For a southern boy from Georgia I can say this is proving to be an interesting experience. The weather is cold, but the warmth of the people we’ve met has been great. Our first few days we worked through some techie issues and thanks to a good crew, and a little patience with our ElectionLink Vehicle(ELV), we seem to be in a groove. Its wonderfully versatile-though sometimes finicky- piece of gear. On board we have 2 MacBook Pros for editing FCP and streaming. With our on-board wireless camera system we are capable of LIVE tv from anywhere we please. But like with any electronic gadgetry sometimes its cross your fingers and say “Please Work”! Off to Chicago for a slice of pie at Ginos! Happy Valentines Day Nancy!
I mean no offense - Phil Keating is quite cute but please get a proper haircut!!!
MY LIFE AS A BLOG, SO FAR. SO GOOD?
REALITY CHECK ANYONE? OH ITS IN THE MAIL, GEE THANKS UNCLE SAM,
SURE COULD USED IT WHEN THIS ALL STARTED. BUT KNOWING THE RED TAPE,
AND BLACKBOARD JUNGLE..ETC.
OR IS THAT WHITE BOARD NOWADAYS? ANYWAY, WHATEVER, DEPENDS…
GET OFF THE RIGHT AND LEFT, GET CENTERED AROUND WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE,
TO FIX THIS MESS. OR IT’S ALL OVER BUT THE CRYING, I GUESS.
BROKERED OR NOT, IT’S NOT THE CHOICE, WE HAD IN MIND. BUT VOTE ANYWAY,
THERE WILL, BE A BRIGHTER DAY TOMORROW?
FOLLOWED BY THE MUSHROOM CLOUD.
SO GET READY, DUCK AND COVER LIKE WE DID IN THE 50′S CLASSROOM DRILL.
DON’T FORGET YOUR GAS MASK, FOR CHEM WARFARE, AND IODINE TABLETS..
BREAK OUT THE BOMB SHELTER KITS AND BE READY TO DEFEND YOUR HOME
AND FAMILY FROM YOUR LOCAL GOVERNMENT, AND YOUR NEXT, DEMOCRATIC
COMMITTEES: COMRADES AND SELECTED OFFICIALS, WHEN THEY COME TO
CONFISCATE YOUR GUNS AND CHILDREN.
GOD HELP US ALL.
END TRANS: MARV!
And to think I wondered if my comment was silly…
Safe travels - Enjoy the Pizza at Ginos - Which location there are 3?
Have an excellent time in the windy city !!!
Mike
I STUMBLED across your live transmission as you were on the Indiana Toll Road headed toward Chicago….IT WAS SOOOO COOL !
Now I have stumbled upon WHAT you are….the ELV’s !
THIS IS SO NEAT ! What a GRAND use of the technology !
Now I see I have a FEW DAYS to watch you live….with a broadband hookup at work, I will be showing my boss and watching you every late afternoon that you are on.
THANKS for the FUN ! Travel safe !
