Smirk MorganThe 2005 Macy Thanksgiving Day Parade Running Commentary
the Cheetah Girls "Cheetalicious Christmas"

Smirk MorganKennesaw Mountain High School.
They are supposed to be doing Carol of the Bells...I can kind of hear it. The drill team is annoying.
The M&Ms are on video? WTF? Why are they on the parade broadcast?

Smirk MorganOkay, I looooove Carrie Underwood's coat. That is awesome. I don't get the hobo chic gloves though.

Smirk MorganWell, the shopping cart drill team looked promising, but again we got a whole 20 seconds of 'em. Heh, if only I were directing this...the rating would probably plummet.

Smirk MorganAnother clown? JoJo the Clown. Good thing

Smirk MorganLove the Peppermint swirl flags of Crestview High from Florida. very in the season. But Matt said they were doing "Deck the Halls" Sounds more like "We Wish you a Merry Christmas" to me.

Smirk Morganand there's Santa Claus...and the end.
Matt says it's obvious that they've had a lot of fun durning the parade. I must be clueless, it seemed kind of stilted and awkward to me. Maybe that's Matt's idea of fun.
Okay, that was....something.
Now, let's open it up for discussion. What was the gayest (using
Sara's definition) aspect of the parade this year?

SalemI liked reading this, it was just like being there in person to experience to wonder and excitement

I saw a little thing on the news about that balloon that.. crashed.. or whatever happened. Was anyone hurt? It would've been strange being in the balloon's path, slowly seeing it coming down towards you..

XF3It seems like one or two people had to go to the hospital. I'm almost positive they were spectators.

see...i knew you would understand. only one thing scarier, and i know cuz one sidled right up to me once...the random, amateur-ish itinerate clown. no kidding i broke into a sweat and got weak in the knees. big help
le was she leaned over and whispered "don't look it in the eyes; it'll steal your soul..." to this day i can never totally relax in that restaurant.

zoomwell that was great fun. i actually got (had...) to see part of the parade with my mom...from about the hawaiian band to that last freakin clown. then mercifully i realized football was on.
i was so totally with y'all though...
