Let's say you're me and you're in math class, and you're supposed to be learning about factoring. Trouble is, your teacher is too busy trying to convince you that factoring is a useful skill for the average person to know with real-world applications ranging from passing your state exams all the way to getting a higher SAT score and unfortunately does not have the time to show you why factoring is actually interesting. It's perfectly reasonable for you to get bored in this situation. So like any reasonable person, you start doodling.

It's Parade Day, the culmination of the island's biggest and best party of the year,
Key West's Fantasy Fest 2008. It's a small party, (in that Key West is only 4-by-2 miles in size), but it increases Key West's population from 27,000 to over 100,000! What's the attraction? Well aside from the
body painting [
NSFW], casual debauchery [
NSFW, GGW, and possible WTF],
great freakin' music,
freaks getting freaky over freak nakedness,
photo ops [
again, NSFW], and
a pretty much non-stop outrageous gay-straight-bi-leather-whatever One Human Family sexy
fun fun fun [
NSFW] celebration, Parade Night is miles and miles/five hours of
out-of-this-world partying island festival [
possible NSFW, whatchutink]!
Come now!
