The NOPD officers were patient, professional, and extremely generous to little children and abusive, space-hogging idiots this year. And I mean generous to a fault. I am so down with certain New Orleans ordinances prohibiting fencing of public property, especially when people cordon off whole quarter to half city blocks with caution tape and pitch teary, obscenity-laced fits as soon as parade-goers Invade Their Space.

We had a great time at Thoth this year. Great weather, gorgeous floats, lots of quality throws. Thanks, Thoth!
I don’t like parade squatters. Ya’s wants the goodies, ya’s gotta fight for them, and that’s the truth. ;P
