Mardi Gras

The oldest Mardi Gras celebration in America is in Mobile, Alabama. I have had the privilege to attend their festivities and I must confess they do it proud.

For those amongst us who have an interest in the historic side of the festival, PBS has scheduled a "documentary" The Order of Myths for Tuesday night. It comes recommended. I haven't seen it, but my TIVO is generally free. Natch, it's unavailable here, but....

Let the good times roll.
