It's Fat Tuesday and the world is a mess. What else is new? The final day of carnival is a day for all us nitwits to let our hair down and get down to some serious debauchery before the Roman Catholic Church says we better get feckin serious and pious.
In celebration here are some N'awlins icons that make me want to be in the Big Easy for just one more Mardi Gras.

Fess and the Meters banging out "Tipitina". Can't pass a bar in New Orleans tonight without hearing this tune one thousand times.
