Sincerely,
'Mardi
Gras' means 'Fat Tuesday'. Traditionally, it is the last day for Catholics
to indulge before Ash Wednesday starts the sober weeks of fasting that come
with Lent. Formally known as Shrove Tuesday, Mardi Gras has long been a
time of extravagant fun for European Christians. The date can fall between
February 3 and March 9 depending on the Lunar calendar, used by the Catholic
Church to determine the date of Easter. Mardi Gras is always 47 days before
Easter Sunday.
In the United States, Mardi Gras draws millions of fun seekers to New Orleans every year. Mardi Gras has been celebrated in New Orleans on a grand scale, with masked balls and colorful parades, since French settlers arrived in the early 1700s. Hidden behind masks, people behaved so raucously that for decades in the early 19th century masks were deemed illegal.
Mardi Gras has long combined wild street activities open to everyone with events organized by private clubs known as krewes. Today, thousands of people belong to about 60 krewes that plan the parades and balls of New Orleans' Mardi Gras.

Analyse
any human emotion, no matter how far it may be removed from the sphere of
sex, and you are sure to discover somewhere the primal impulse, to which
life owes its perpetuation. ... The primitive stages can always be re-established;
the primitive mind is, in the fullest meaning of the word, imperishable.
... Mans most disagreeable habits and idiosyncrasies, his deceit, his cowardice,
his lack of reverence, are engendered by his incomplete adjustment to a
complicated civilisation. It is the result of the conflict between our instincts
and our culture. (Sigmund Freud)
