King Mango Strut today!

Are you ready for the Silver Strut -- the 25th running of the King Mango Strut, where news and satire collide on the streets of Coconut Grove? (This photo is from last year).

Living up to this year's Strut theme, "Still Crazy After All These Years," you're invited to experience a real third world moment today. Join the Mango Tabernacle Choir in song for a singing telegram to Colorado Congressman Tom Tancredo to begin this year's parade.

Like Time Magazine, the committee couldn't decide which one of YOU to select as the Grand Marshal, so they decided to let YOU decide by hosting an equal opportunity auction on eBay (yeah, they really needed the money). Don Roberson of Miami Beach placed the highest bid of $5,600.

Amazingly, he outbid everyone in the eBay universe without the help of a lobbyist. Don will ride a convertible Bentley and he will get to be "The Donald" for a day. He will be granting second chances to aspiring but troubled beauty queens.

See you there -- downtown Grove -- 2 pm. Come early!
