OMG! It's Fat Tuesday!!

[Misty_Morning]

I nearly forgot.

Let the debauchery begin.

Oh, wait...I also forgot where I am.


Let the debauchery CONTINUE!





You folks got any tales of Mardi Gras you want to share?

I'll be back with a few of mine....

 

[cloudy]

I got drunk, showed my tits numerous times, got lots of throws.

Several years in a row.

Do they have to be true?

 

[voluptuary_manque]

I'm fat enough without Tuesday.

Ahhh.....New Orleans on Fat Tuesday....


The smell of fresh vomit and urine every third step.

The sound of cops beating the shit out of every party goer that desn't immediately step aside.


Ahhhh.....the feel of some pervert feeling you up and/or lifting your blouse everytime you reach to grasp the cheap little beads.....


ahhh...the memories....

 

[voluptuary_manque]

You want to make me go to . . . Rio!

 

[FrecklesAllOver]

I've heard that (pre-Katrina) N'Orleans is great... "Adult Slushies" was the phrase my prof used.

I love listening to fellow MG vets sharing their carnival war stories.

There is no other experience that is quite so uplifting as the generosity of Mardi Gras crowds. I remember many a time weaving through the crowds carrying a Hurricane glass from Pat O'Brien's and having all sorts of adult beverages poured in it at random. What a glorious way to get utterly shit-faced.

The Proteus and Zulu Krewes were always my favorites...Proteus had the best floats...Zulu, hands down, the best music. Those were good times.

Don't talk about fat!



But the costumes look divine, Rumple.

Now, now. There's a difference between fat and voluptuous.

The really ornate costumes can be seen at the balls that are held during carnival season. This link is to a collection of photos from balls held outside of NO in the the middle of cajun country in the town of, Lafayette. http://www.lafayettemardigras.net/apps/photos/photo.jsp?photoID=10807266

Cute, but I still prefer Rio.

I'm told Carnival in Rio is a blast, but is even harder on the system and way more dangerous than the NO Mardi Gras. Besides, NO has better food and it's a lot cheaper to get there and more blondes.

Had one of the best Fat Tuesdays ever this year. Saw lots of boobs, enjoyed good times, and absorbed much human emotion (always the main reason I go out into crowds). Also connected with old friends, learned how good news ones are for me, and heard my boss tell me I was spared from the recent company layoff because of the high level of work I put in. That was welcome news, let me tell you. I felt the fun I had tonight was my reward, even though my job had nothing to do with getting to enjoy it.

Did you celebrate here in Austin?

The Germans started celebrating Fasching last Friday and had their last parades yesterday. It's too cold here to flash anything at this time of year, but there were still interesting sights to behold. Marching bands here are multigenerational affairs and wear costumes. You haven't lived until you've seen a whole mob of trolls, with instruments, marching down the street. The clown band was fun, but the underwater creatures band, led by Neptune, was the most creative. Most floats had people throwing candy, chocolates, and small balls into the crowd. A few had people running around serving beer. No carnival beads here, but the parties went into the night.

Over here it's Shrove Tuesday, and we have pancakes (crepes). Yummmmmmmmmm.

And in many, many towns they have traditional pancake races....people racing with a frying pan tossing a pancake.

Wierd, I know, but hilarious to watch.

One of the towns is in Kansas, USA. They apparently have a timed contest with the original town in England where the pancake thing started.

The Olney Pancake Race, the oldest one in Britain.

Indeed I did celebrate here, Rumple. If you were on 6th Street and saw a guy in a black fedora wandering around charming hot girls into flashing with beads and a voodoo accent, that was me. I enjoyed the success I had.
