Season of Codes

Should have added this ages ago - I've been busily helping with this joint Season of Codes for quite a while since I'm in the Calgary Renaissance Singers, one of the choirs involved. Our first concert in the series is Christmas in Code, December 7 and 8 - plan to come if you can! It's sure to be interesting. And the music is glorious.

Next stop for us? A Leap Day concert - since February 29 only comes around every four years. Worth celebrating!

Make My Logo Bigger Cream

Yes - you knew someone had to come up with something to placate all those wannabe designer clients out there. Here it is:

Make My Logo Bigger Cream

Surely it works?! (Note the use of the Interrobang...)

Etsy.com

If you make something handmade and need or want a place to sell your wares, etsy.com is for you. Sign up is free and there are minimal listing fees. Sort of like eBay but for the handcrafter that I know is in all of us...!

Calgary Artist's Market

Found this on Artsmart - wish I'd known about it sooner. Must check it out - if you beat me to it, report back?

I've added a link to the lovely Kristina's blog in the links section to the right. Check it out!

Colourlovers

Do you love colour? I do. And colourlovers.com is a great site that monitors colour trends and allows users to post their own colour palettes. Great site if you need to find new colour combos or just check out new trends.

Interrobang?

Courtesy of Nancy, the following:

"I was listening to a CBC program about language and words on Saturday (it's called "And Sometimes Y"; it comes on at 11:30 a.m. on CBC 1) and they were talking about a punctuation mark I had never heard of before .... it's a symbol called the "interrobang" and it combines a question mark (or interrogation mark as they called it) and an exclamation mark (apparently the slang name for it among typesetters is the bang)."

And now I need to know what an asterism is.

Go forth and astound your friends with this one! Though if you can work "interrobang" into a sentence, I applaud you!

I'm confused...

Am I the only one that thinks Weight Watchers offering a lifetime membership is just bad advertising? If it works, why would you need to be a lifetime member? Just wondering...
