In honor of--or maybe in defiance of--Regular Reader Rat Bastard, I'm
going to get
as far away as possible from discussing any social issues...
The following is from Cityscene, Fairfax City's monthly newsletter-thingy (which,
believe it or not, I read on a regular basis):
Characters, Balloon Handlers Sought for
Independence Day Parade
The city seeks volunteers to dress in
character costumes and perform along the parade route at the
Independence Day Parade in downtown Fairfax July 4. Costumes to be
provided include SpongeBob SquarePants, Minnie Mouse, Mickey Mouse,
Scooby Doo, Elmo, Bob the Builder, Dora the Explorer, and Cat in the
Hat.
The city is also in search of volunteers to handle large helium
parade balloons along the parade route on July 4. No experience is
necessary.
Ooh! Ooh! Me! Me! Me!
Um.
On second thought, maybe wearing a 50-pound
chicken wire and cardboard sponge on my head for five hours in 95 degree
heat isn't the best idea.
I'll wait until the Christmas Parade. Maybe I
can be Yukon Cornelius. |
