Happy Mardi Gras y'all.

Here's the corrected link for the Mardi Bras:
http://misskarinas.com/mbgallery.html

Also, some links that didn't make the cut:

The Bearded Oysters
all-female parading dance troupe
http://misskarinas.com/beardedoysters.html

The PussyFooters!
another all-female dance/marching group
http://www.pussyfooters.net/

Beadwhores (of both sexes)
http://beadwhore.com/
(A commercial site. They sell beads but they have fun too.)

There's also a New Orleans tradition that is being revived where adult women dress up as "baby dolls". I can't find much info on that but the late Ernie K-Doe helped with that and they are mentioned on his site (http://www.k-doe.com/) and a few other places but nothing is too informative or accessible. There's a picture here: http://www.tulane.edu/%7Evmayer/Service.htm (That's a Mardi Gras Indian to the left.)

Cheers,

Lipwak
