Today is National Wear Red Day is promoting women's heart disease awareness. I'm wearing more of a burgundy today, but I hope it's close enough.

Apparently WHFS wasn't the only station to turn to the Latin beat. My mother reports that her usual Orlando oldies station WBEG has turned from Motown and Simon & Garfunkel to salsa and merengue. She's none too pleased about this change.

My knitting friends would not be at all surprised by the AP article about men who knit. It's no different really than the ones who cross-stitch. One of the best blackwork specialists from Britain is male, Leon Conrad. He turns out the most intricate stuff, including the Elizabethan chessboard.

The CVS meeting last night featured some newcomers and a couple of workshops. For the first one, I need to reread "Scene and Structure" a little. I was reminded of the second one today when reading a review of the Official Movie Plot Generator. [livejournal.com profile] whytcrow used the Evil Overlord's list to great effectiveness with her exercise based on Teresa Nielsen Hayden's Stupid Plot Tricks. I still don't know why mine turned into a western saloon. Too much Firefly maybe?

Debra Doyle and James Macdonald have a new journal, [livejournal.com profile] mist_and_snow, which will contain notes and research for an alt-historical novel they're doing for Eos, featuring the American Civil War at sea.

Ah, yes, the infidelity of Orlando radio stations. Our "party" station used to play some wonderful techno/trance music, but they've now turned to solid hip-hop. *sigh*
