I'll be in Ohio this weekend for a family gathering, so I'll be missing Fleet Week (Google can't find a good "official site"). Damn. I've wanted to see the Blue Angles again. Wow, that site sucks. And Google couldn't find it easily by searching for "blue angles." I had to specify "navy blue angles." Yahoo, on the other hand, knew exactly what I wanted.

I did catch them flying formation over Moffett on the way to work yesterday. I believe they were preparing to land. Oh, well. Next time, I guess.

UPDATE: Uhm, yeah. I'm a moron. Just read the comments below. I could just delete this story entirely, but why bother? I'm sure I'm not the only one who has even mis-spelled a search term and then become upset with the search engine for not Doing The Right Thing. Right?

The Blue Angles? Highly specialized military protractor unit?
