The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit/Nighttime Maneuvers presents:
Hey Listeners,
…he say jockomo fee na nay.
Keep it tuned here for some Mardi Gras classics. Mardi Gras is going to look a little different in NOLA this year with parades cancelled and bars closed, but I read that people were decorating their homes like floats. Helen and I decided to do the same – see below.
Enjoy the show.
