International Women's Day coincides with Mardi Gras this year.

Interesting juxtaposition.

Okay, it took a minute or two for me to catch on to Martha.  hahahahaha

Interesting to note the IWD site is under hacker attack.  Haters. Yell

 


I have fond memories of boogalooing to Martha and the Vandellas.  

And for the record, as a woman I have no problem with the juxtaposition.


I was about to do a big old essay on the meaning of the contrast of Martha Washington and Mardis Gras on International Women's Day but something else that would mean a whole lot less bloviating came to mind. Thank God for that.
