Lantern parade sounds cool.

It's great. This year it featured a performance by the Legion of Flying Monkeys, a group founded by an artist who makes brass instruments out of wood. It's a fun project, he's great with my kid and lets her touch the instruments, and he's one of those hyper competent people who can do anything (e.g. forgot his carving knives on a recent residency so made a foundry out of a gas torch, tin can, and mud, and made himself some knives). There's a good video from the city about the project below, and an example of what performance sounds like here:

 

In the video below the guy with the beard lives across the street from me and is working on a short documentary about bushtits.

How humid is it? In the summer it usually stays in between 85 and 100. It is very humid here, so the real feel is more like 100-115. 

In July and August, when the temperature and the humidity are competing to see which one can be higher, I like to cool off by thinking about all those new young servicepeople going through weeks of Boot Camp at Ft. Jackson and Parris Island.  :classic_ohmy:

How do garbage disposals work?

Alas poor Snake Fingers, he was a likeable chap, kind, friendly, and always lending a helping hand....but the strain was just too great, he finally couldn't stand it any longer, and his mind gave out. Let be remembered that he did his duty well.

Me thinks a plunge in a mostly frozen Michigan lake might do the lad good. Maybe I'll skip the Larus gull identifications immediately after, however.

But seriously tho, how do they work?

I suggest that you try that discussion on a Cat forum, Dog forum, Horse forum, Amphibian forum, or maybe on a Snake forum, and see how well it goes over there. Personally I think the question is inappropriate for a birding forum, and most members would know that without having to be told.
