ap1 St. Stupid rules in SF and Yuba county

by Impeach Cheney FIRST, Sweetie (SaveFreedom [at] yahoogroups.com)
Top-optional zombies may wander from SF's financial swamp (formerly Yerba Buena Cove) to Washington Square (notable for its statue of, you guessed it, Ben Franklin).... or maybe not ... [ Ooops, photo shows Wrong Event; better luck in 2007 ]

2006 APRIL first,
Saturday:
annual St. Stupid's Day (April Fool's Day) in SF
(top-optional?)

[ http://www.saintstupid.com ]
...
SF police try to prevent genital nudity at this event.
But they may ignore bare butts;
and they probably (no guarantees!) will ignore bare female breasts.
Regardless of law,
SFPD's de facto policies are very hard to predict.
....
St. Stupid's Day is more fun when
April first falls on Saturday (as in 2006) or on Sunday,
because then the parade route MAY extend all the way
from the financial district
to North Beach (probably winding up in Washington Square).
.............

Unofficial 2006 theme song:
"Woke up in April
with my mi-i-i-i-ind
STUCK on STOO-pid! "

[ Tune ( from civil rights song, probably based on a spiritual):
"Woke up in the morning with my mind --
SET on FREEdom..." ]
........................

Misdirections,
from official SaintStupid.com website:

"The 28st Annual SAINT STUPID'S DAY PARADE

[ Comment by Tortuga:
Could the "pointy building" be the
Transamerica Pyramid, at 600 Montgomery?
Try to arrive by 11:30AM, in case you (or the organizers) get lost.
Bring still and motion cameras; water or other NON-alcohoolican beverage;
portable snacks;
clean old socks for the Sock Exchange (IF it happens in 2006);
skimpy costumes;
signs praising our Stupe-in-Chief;
grandmother clocks, whatever...... ]
