Chris Rosenberg notes that, when talking about ridiculous holiday parades, you'd have to include Philly's own Mummers parade on New Years. Consider that when Penn State played in the Fiesta Bowl for the national title some time back, the game was pre-empted for parade coverage.

Finally, in linguistic news, Matt Boggie passes along the German word Wannefreude, meaning "fallen joy." Trust the Germans.
