Rose Parade

The Rose Parade is on Monday this year, a day after New Year. I understand there is a tradition of never having the parade on Sunday, but I don't ever remember not having it on New Year's Day.

I enjoy the parade, but I'm going to be at work. Our school workday was abolished to make up for days lost to hurricane Wilma. I'm betting viewership will be WAY down because of it being a Monday parade.

I heard they are trying to update the format of the parade to entice more viewers. CBS cancelled the broadcasting because of waning interest. Most people will be at work so they won't know if the new format worked or not. Pity.
