We were all bummed about news last week that “The New Yankee Workshop” was ceasing production. And, in case you’ve forgotten, this Saturday is Halloween.
I think you see where this is going.
By the power vested in me by the Radio Shack Battery Club, I declare Saturday to be “International Dress Like Norm Day.” This is the time to break out your flannel shirts, your tool belt, your safety glasses, your fake beard.
In honor of Norm Abram, we’re asking all his fans to dress like the man, take a photo of yourself in costume and send it to me by midnight Monday, Nov. 2, at chris.schwarz@fwmedia.com. The person who sends in the best photo (as determined by our staff), will win a great prize. What is the prize, you ask? Well, it’s one of two things. We have to dig through our archives to see if we still have them. But rest assured that if you like “The New Yankee Workshop” then you are going to want this prize.
Visit this blog later this week for more details on this point.
I’m encouraging/ordering the entire staff of the magazine to observe this important date (we’re celebrating IDLND on Friday). However, some of us who shall remain nameless, are going to have to go shopping for flannel and safety glasses.
