Happy Mardi Gras! Grease Them Poles!!!
Thangs must indeed be pickin' up down on Bourbon St.!
Those of us that have balconies during Mardi Gras must endure, and persevere in the face of the over-zealous revelers that frolic down below, and attempt to reach us by the notorious, "climbing of the poles".
As handy as boiling oil or syphilis inflected corpses flung into the crowds would be to us of such lofty abodes, we must adhere to the law (at least when they're lookin'!), but the act of the lowlies, attempting to "rob" us of our "valuable" plastic wares (beads, coinage, latex titties n such), is intolerable.
Leave it to the Royal Sonesta, to canonize, way back when,and to re- introduce an illustrious, tradition, that in it's own way, announces the true beginning of Mardi Gras.
Today I wept (*sniff*),as the Sonesta employees came out, in masse', for the legendary "Greasing of the Poles".
