One of the best “events” I ever attended in Las Vegas was a talk given by Mike Rowe several years ago during the SHOT Show. To be sure, it was a very red-blooded crowd (Lt. Col. Oliver North was like five seats away from me), but Mr. Rowe delivered a lot of common sense akin to a modern Mark Twain.
On a recent “Somebody’s Gotta Do It” episode, Rowe was in my neck of the woods and visited the Navy Seabees while they were in a Field Ex in the mud at Camp Shelby. It’s entertaining if you have 25 minutes to spare.
