i love rain parades. the greatest parade i ever saw, as some DOOMies who joined me might remember, was a Chinese New Year parade in a torrential downpour. I was living near Daly City bart, so we barted in to the start and it was intense. Poor dragon dancers in chilly t-shirts and silks getting blown down into the gutters. Beauty queens waving from the inside of limos trailing their empty floats. Rudimentary drummers kicking ass in the reverberating downtown section of Market street, whilst all the other instruments in the marching bands whimpered in the cold rain. umbrellas, including ours, gettin ripped to shreds in the wind. it was AWESOME!! dragons cause the rain so it was very fitting. and we were home and dry before the parade even got to Chinatown...
