Thanks Bill, Michael, Denny, and Paul!
I really appreciate your comments!
Happy Mardi Gras!!! The big and final Mardi Gras Day is tomorrow when the Rex and Zulu Krewes in New Orleans (and other krewes in area parishes), the Mardi Gras Indians, bands, various marching groups, and a lot of visitors, locals, and policemen take to the streets, followed by the truck parades. for the last and very LONGGGGG DAY. :-)
Then comes Ash Wednesday and Lent ...and a lot of headache remedies for many.{-)
