I was in St. Louis...and it was mardi gras weekend. If you didn't know, St. Louis has the second largest mardi gras parade annually. But this year, due to the problems in NO, it was the largest in the country.
It was god awful. I really, really hate people, especially people who define their coolness by how drunk they get. The roads were ridiculously dangerous. I estimate that upwards of 20% of the drivers on the freeway at any given time were drunk. We passed two fatal accidents, and witnessed another. Safely back in KC today, I'm thanking all that's holy that my city doesn't have to pretend that mardi gras is a real holiday and put on a death display like what I saw in St. Louie. > We had a pretty nice weekend.
