For the poor souls that don’t recognize it (or can’t tell what it is thanks to my craptacular camera phone), this, ladies and gentlemen, is the first sign of Mardi Gras. The pile of metal at the bottom of the photo? That’s scaffolding for the reviewing stands about to be erected in front of Gallier Hall, which is where the Mayor watches each parade and toasts its king. I can’t imagine what all the FEMA workers eating lunch at the pan-Asian restaurant on the corner thought when they saw me do a little butt-dance in the middle of St. Charles Avenue, but I just couldn’t help myself.
