The worst-kept secret in town this morning is the identity of the 2009 grand marshal of Endymion, which will be officially announced at a press conference at 10:30. (The Tiger Droppings blog also says the Endymion ball entertainment will be classic-rock radio staple REO Speedwagon, though we haven't confirmed that.)

Oh fabulous! Hope there will be more SDT lovefest commercials a comin' What am I saying? He'll probably be on the float with him. So wouldn't go to see Endymion if you paid me.

As one of those Uptown snobs you hear so much about, I will--of course--be skipping Endymion.
"We were tryin' different things/We were smokin' funny things..." Wonder if they'll be smokin' funny things on Kid's float? Oh, wait - wrong krewe.
