Myself, I prefer dancing and singing to celebrate things. What happened

like candy or food?
Ah well...
Blame the lawyers and the liabililty laws... (from a one time float
builder and one who remembers when it was actually fun to be in a parade)

Or maybe we could blame the people who've asked the lawyers to pursue
those ridiculous cases, or the people who passed those laws... Don't
blame the litigator. :-)
Am I now supposed to write a pro-libertarian rant, and in the same

discussion? This mailing-list netiquette stuff is so tricky.
