Parades

So far in my life I have been 'woken up' by three parades. All of which are totally unique and different and which are in different cities. First time it was the Christmas Parade in Montreal. It was creative, fun, lots of people and an all around awesome parade. Next it was the Pride Parade. Don't get me wrong people can be and do whatever they want, but considering that you need to be 18+ before you can watch adult movies and that music and movies are censored, I think this family parade needs to be more censored in what type of sexual things and entertainment can be showed. Most recently I ran into the St. Paddy's Day parade in Ottawa. First I didn't even know that there was going to be a parade or that the the blocked roads where for that reason. There was very little people and media and it really just seemed like a blocked road. Secondly when the parade started there was your usual marching band and whatever but instead of floats (which I expected coming from Calgary and growing up with the Stampeded) they had semi
trucks with kids and randoms dancing on top of them. WTH?? come on if your going to be part of a parade there is suppose to be floats which are all decorative and in different colors and different themes. People dancing on top of a non decorated truck does not qualify.
Anyway, I would like to take the time so say to important things....
1. Happy Birthday Buggie...
2.Happy ST Paddy's Day... Cheers
