First things first, though, as I wish
all out there a Happy New Year. I'm back after a brief hiatus, the
last two weeks being full of holiday, work, and a Christmas Bug.
Fortunately, thanks to the artificial support provided by "better
living through chemistry", my blog is back in action, although I
take no responsibility for what gets written, as it comes from the
brain of of sand and fog.
I'm seeing some real differences today
between the Rose Parade and the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
Where the East Coast was all celebrity and pop singers, the West
Coast is more about organics and good ol' marching bands. Heck, the
Rose Parade has Ms. Jane Goodall as the Grand Marshal. How cool is
that? More colors, way better floats, and a nice international
flavor for the West Coast, too. Yeah, I think the Rose Parade has it
all over the Macy's Parade.
Ironic that the Rose Parade, hailing
from sunny Cali-for-nye-ay, land of Hollywood, would turn out as less
"Hollywood" than the Macy's Parade. The Rose Parade has
floats from the Humane Society and the Korean War Memorial, Macy's
had fluff.
It should be interesting to see what
movies come out for 2013, especially considering super-heroes ruled
for 2012 with Marvel's The Avengers, The Dark Knight Rises, and The
Amazing Spider-Man holding positions one, two, and six for the year.
'til next time... Adios.
