...to take the kids to the Macy's Turkey Day Parade, they're kind of geeked about going and I think I am too. First trip w/o the jeep in a long time.

Anyone ever been to the parade? Just curious.
 
I did New Years in NYC back in 96-97. Was the second best time I had (MardiGras 97 was the best). You will notice that most people walk down the street with thier heads down and don't be surpised if you ask someone directions they look at you funny. Asked a cop how to get to a certain train and they didn't know.
Have fun!
 
house isn't gonna be empty, buddy of mine lives there when we're gone, to watch my big stranger eatin Rot. Well B, you've seen my killer dog anyhow.

Been to NYC several times, this should be cool and different, first time my boys have been there. My sister lives out there (not in the city but close) and her employer has an apartment on the parade route that we're using as 'home base' and to watch the parade from baloon level, should be cool.
 
Actually, I know someone with lots of spare time who can come up and watch your place....NO CHARGE...while you are gone.

So long Boss, knock 'em dead, don't worry 'bout a thing
Wish that we could come along, we'd love to hear you sing
The limo's here, your bags are packed, the list is by the phone
Me and Snake will watch your place and treat it like our own

Look at all this liquor
Look at all this food
It's only gonna go to waste
We're not really being rude
But the good stuff's in his closet, I swear he wouldn't mind
Hell, we'll just shoot the lock off, I do it all the time

We're gypsies in the palace, he's left us here alone
The order of the sleepless knights will now assume the throne
We ain't got no money, we ain't got no right
But we're gypsies in the palace, we got it all tonight

There's damsels in distress out there and we got all this beer
We'll free them from their condos and bring them over here
We'll show them his Gold Records
We'll play his music loud
We'll party just like Bubba does
We'll do the old man proud

We're gypsies in the palace, there ain't no wrong or right
We're gypsies in the palace and we're going wild tonight

He's the greatest guy to work for, man, he's really cool
Hey Snake, this party's getting dull, throw someone in the pool
Hey, let's all take our clothes off and form a conga line
Watch out for that broken glass, hey Snake, we need more wine

We're gypsies in the palace, there ain't no wrong or right
We're gypsies in the palace and we're raising hell tonight, hey

Oh, hi there, Boss, what's goin' on?
You say you're coming when?
I'll send Snake to pick you up tomorrow night at ten, okay

Everybody out of here, the show is closing down
We've got to find someone to clean this up
He's coming back to town

Hi there, boss, we waxed your car, we raked and mowed your lawn
We couldn't find enough to do in the short time you were gone

Man it sure is peaceful here, you really got it all
If you ever hit the road again, give me and Snake a call

We're gypsies in the palace, he's left us here alone
The order of the Sleepless Knights will now assume the throne
We ain't got no money, we ain't got no right
But we're gypsies in the palace, we got it all tonight
