Oh wretched excess

Among them will be almost 2,000 cheerleaders...

In the parade. You know, that Macy's one. According to this AP story 10,000 people, half of them Macy's employees, will march, which means 20 percent of everybody will be cheerleaders - or more, depending on what you think of Macy's employees - which is, Bunky, way, way too much cheer for me. Way too much.
