Since our coverage of Brazil's carnival celebrations began on Monday, curious readers have been musing on the lucky bastards who get to paint fake pasties, images of Obama, and "pieces of tape" on the queens of the parade. Luckily, MSNBC took a break from goofing on Bobby "...

  We spent most of the weekend complaining about how peeved we were to be missing the New Orleans Mardi Gras, mainly venting to people standing next to us at New York's many Mardi Gras parties. It would've helped ease our guilty conscience over not supporting the Katrina-ravaged economy...

On any normal day, try to get women to show you their boobs for 4-cent plastic beads and all you'll get is slapped in the face. But do the same thing at Mardi Gras and you'll have everyone from strippers to elementary school librarians clawing to get their tops off as fast as possible. Why, we have ...

What do you get when you mix the red of Valentine’s Day with some green? Not green as in heaps of cash. Think green as in feel-good, save the planet – with a dash of that other green message the M&M market lustfully embraced this V-Day. Ahem. Red and green blended make brown – think brown ...
