That’s a lotta Mardi Crap there. Bet it smells delightful as well, but I’d rather have to clean up that mess than several month’s worth of Occupoopage.
Although Fat Tuesday’s Gone for another year, we’ve still got plenty of Gris Gris Gumbo Ya Ya here, on The Overnight Open Thread.

Everyone should experience Mardi Gras in New Orleans at least once. The parades are awesome, the music is great, and there are uninhibited and inebriated college girls. There are also pickpockets, drug dealers and people who will fight you over a plastic necklace. The beer/drinks are cheap (since they deal in volume) and the streets and sidewalks flow with unmentionable liquids so you’ll need to burn your shoes afterwards. Again, everyone should experience Mardi Gras in New Orleans at least once.
And just for all you late night BlogMockrateers, there’s a secret bonus if you click the pic on The Overnight Open Thread.

Mere hours away, the most awesome annual street party kicks in full bore. I was fortunate to attend Mardi Gras in 1989 in New Orleans. What a hoot. Great bands, lotsa parades, exposed breasts, afternoon beer, people fighting over little plastic tokens and climbing trees to get cheap plastic necklaces, numerous offers to buy ersatz drugs, puking in the streets, etc.
Fun memories, but I digress, because it’s time for gris gris gumbo yaya on The Overnight Open Thread.
