Default Mardi Gras

Just a wish that all have a safe and happy "Fat Tuesday"!
Have an extra slice of King Cake, pass the gumbo this way, and wear those beads!

I'll be there in a couple of weeks!

I'm glad I'm not there for the actual Mardi Gras, though... too many stupid people.

I've never been, Cajun.
Someday.
To quote Dennis Hopper in "Easy Rider"..."I'm going to Newawlins, going to Newawlis, gonna get me a Mardi gras Queen."
Someday for me.
Stupid people, please stay home.

btw...one of my mares is named Bourbon Streettune. She's a honey.

We went my Senior year in High School. Overrated as far as I'm concerned. Sure you'll lots of nice boobs you'll also see lots of ones you wouldn't ever want to see again also.

I went once, had a great time, we partied all night, came back to the hotel, then hit the Fair Grounds during the day...It's a great city, I would like to go back sometime and see more of the city...

New Orleans is a great place to visit. Been there twice.

Once In 1993 for the Webber TO!!!!!! Then walk across the street to the mall where ESPN was set up, to tell Dick Vitale: 'YOU WERE WRONG.' Had an excellent time down there with friends for the weekend. The good old college days.

Then went by myself in the end of March of 2005. Visited the FG for the first time. I enjoy there setup immensely. Did more historic ventures this time around. I also visited the zoo. The aquariam was ok. Hit me hard when the hurricane later that year.

I'm heading back for sure in 2012. Not sure about before, but I told my wife that she has to be there then.
