I’ve got my camera ready and work can wait for the next half hour. Never seen a B52 with my own eyes before and I cannot wait.

I saw The B-52's in the late 80's. Great performers.

It looks like the Northshore will not get in on this. Such is life. For those that do get to see it, bask in the awesome military might of America. "Speak softly and carry a big stick," is what comes to my mind. Besides, in a "stick measuring" contest, nobody is bigger. Merica. frick yea!

A couple of F-15's are supposed to make a low pass over Covington sometime between 12:30 and 12:45. No B-52's, but better than nothing.

Would be a lot more entertaining if they "accidentally" released some Mark 82s over 1300 Perdido Street.
