I actually sent the Globe article previewing it to a friend last night, warning him to stay away from it, simply as a joke. Not that he would ever attend that, as he's an elder Irish guy in the burbs and has no interest in that and certain other cultures -- but has been to Haiti and Russia and Pennsylvania several times for volunteer efforts.

Today, I wrote back saying "I told ya so!"

Sad for all involved.

So the J'Ouvert parade at 7:30 am or so, I think geared toward children/families, was suspended, but another parade later, I think it's considered the "main" parade, went on as scheduled? And a Boys and Girls club van nearby had its driver's window shot out and the van was graffitied. Wow. Can't make this stuff up!

I saw photos today from past years and some costumes are very nice. Too bad it always seems to have an incident in recent years.
