potentialities

satyadasa said I wouldn't like it anyway.

Yeah, neither the food (jerk chicken, fried goat, spicy cole slaw) nor the music (reggae, soca, etc.) were to your taste. We also did a lot of walking forward along the parade route looking for CHRI so that Bev could get some flyers, so we wound up seeing many of the same floats and marchers over and over again.

I doubt it is much fun for anyone after all.

It was pretty fun, more for the hanging out with people than for the parade really, but the rain didn't seem to dampen the fun of the people dancing. There were quite a few really fun things, including watching dozens of flag-draped people run over a hill to jump over a fence to get from Flatbush Ave to Eastern Parkway because the regular sidewalk and street entrances through Grand Army Plaza were blocked. It was even more fun trying to go in the opposite direction. There are unfortunately no pictures of this part.

It's great that you have all those dorky roommates. I just have this monastery.

Scissors? Ouch.
