The Cool Party

But don't worry about bogus "parties" filled with dour, rage-impaired, Volvo-driving, free-range-alpaca clad matrons and their mousy, vegetarian, government-employed, ideologically-neutered mates underlings, or the patchouli-reeking, tie-dyed upper-middle-class poverty impersonators, eating overcooked pork and electoral crow.

No, you have a real option; the Patriot Picnic. Don't forget to join us tomorrow, Saturday July 30, at Starring Lake Park in Eden Prairie. (And if you're coming from the northwest suburbs, remember that 494 is going to be closed all weekend - might want to take 169 or 101).

The party starts at 11, lunch at 11:30 (and rumors that it's going to be more Jay Larson hot dogs are apparently in error!). David Strom will be broadcasting his whole show from the park, and we'll be going live after David from noon until 3PM.

We'll have contests, all sorts of audience participation, an interview with District Six congressman and Senate candidate Mark Kennedy, and of course the whole NARN thang, live.

Pre-register at the AM1280 site, so there's enough food!

This party is brought to you by the same people who brought you the Great Debate Party, the Hewitt-Beinart Smackdown, the MOB parties, and a whole list of other great radio to-dos - the good folks at the Patriot.

So don't trust your weekend media party schedule to amateurs. Go with the pros. See you at Starring Lake.
