Abridged Daily News ColumnistsStu Bykofsky: Ha! This column is amazing. Apparently people are still giving the group that had the, um, hilarious skit with Joe Vento, Mexicans storming across the border and Barack Obama handing out green cards. And apparently the Daily News wrote an editorial talking about how drunk and racist everyone is at the parade. (Stu makes a good point that the things people find “bad” or whatever about the Mummers is usually just things about the comics, not any of the other groups.) Anyway, I can’t believe people are still writing about the Mummers on Jan. 14. Do you think the Pasadena Star-News is still doing stories about the Tournament of Roses Parade? Jill Porter: You know, the Daily News has been writing about problems with house theft in Philadelphia for (guessing) over a decade now. And, really, it seems no matter what changes are made, it’s still relatively easy to steal a house and still incredibly annoying to get it back after it’s stolen. Sigh. |

Well, I hadn’t thought about whether there were stories about the Rose Parade today until you asked, so I had to Google it. And the answer is: yes.
Yeah, I know. I was kind of disappointed but not surprised. What’s amazing is they were still taking it down just Monday. Which leads me to this new idea: Don’t compare the Mummers Parade to the Rose Parade, even in a joke.
