Tis the season for Mardi Gras, and there are now parades everywhere and around all conceivable themes. Yesterday afternoon I witnessed "Barkus," the dog parade. Friday evening was "Ochan," a parade celebrating the Voo Doo gods.This is a float, not much bigger than a shoe box, from Saturday's "Petit Rex" parade in my neighborhood, the Bywater. People put together miniature floats around the theme la petit mort. In this case, the float is a salute to the deceased "ain'ts," a former nickname for the Saints. 9, visible on the left, is Drew Brees.
