For a stock-market crash course in freakonomics, head downtown
Saturday when Krewe du Vieux presents its Stimulus Package. The raunchy
and satirical parade hits the streets with mule-drawn floats, brass
bands and cruise director Frankie Ford. Eric Lindell and the Zydepunks
headline the post-parade ball at the Colton School. Visit the Web site
for parade map and ball information.
