<BR>
I don't know if this is a silly question, but I was wondering:<BR>
What kind of parades do the comic book titles "Christmas Parade" and<BR>
"Vacation Parade" refer to?<BR>
<BR>
Is the word "parade" to be taken literally (as in a "circus parade"), or<BR>
does it simply mean a "series" of comic book stories?<BR>
<BR>
Kind regards<BR>
Niels<BR>
It certainly wasn't a silly question</BLOCKQUOTE>,</FONT><FONT COLOR="#000000" BACK="#ffffff" style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" SIZE=2 PTSIZE=10 FAMILY="SANSSERIF" FACE="Arial" LANG="0"><BR>

We have lots of words in English that don't always mean what they should.<BR>
There is a magazine just called "Parade" and it is likely Disney adapted the word with Vacation and Christmas which in both cases the comics are just a series of stories and activities (Puzzles and mazes, etc.).<BR>
I hope this helps.<BR>
