Too bad the military parade for Bastille Day in Paris is at 3:00am ET here.☹️

I know it's the cause of Trump wanting one but if you want to see what an "Olde Worlde" parade looks like, with fanfares, fancy uniforms, horses, firetrucks, motorbikes and big bearded men in white apron (the Sapeurs of the Foreign Legion), it is worth watching.

My city is celebrating the NBA championship with a parade that runs past the Law School, so the Law School is closed.

Why can’t OKC just celebrate like other cities, with all-night bacchanalia that culminate in car-fueled bonfires and hospital visits for people who climb light poles?
