Parades

I don't like going to parades. There I said it, I have been ridiculed for this opinion but even as a kid I didn't like parades. I guess not so much the parade itself but as a kid it was the steam engines that came down the street. You could hear them about a mile away...chuga, chuga as the steam pushed through the engine. Then there was the whistle, wholly shit it was loud. As it turns out I don't like loud, who woulda knew. To this day every parade we go to this primal fear is brought up by my family and they laugh and laugh...he he...

Today I don't like parades because of the lack of steam engines. Thinking about it there is a lack of fire engines....and police cars, tanks, bands, clowns and most of all candy. Todays parades are taken over by politicians and church groups like gods pottery (see below). So when Youth Football called and asked if I was going to walk in the parade to promote Youth Football I had to decline because not only do I hate parades so why should I be in one, but also because registration is closed so what's the point.
