The Terminal: Ten Years Later
It’s Spring Break for most area schools and the liturgical calendar puts us in Holy Week leading up to Easter. This combination has lots of folks out of town. Those of us left, fear not. Thanks to Birmingham’s cultural scene, there is more than just egg hunts to occupy our time.

Got plans this weekend? 2.29 – 3.2
Goodness there’s a lot going on this weekend! It’s like everyone planning events looked at their calendars at the end of last year and all decided that March 1 would be the perfect day for their fundraiser/yak auction/open house. What, did they think Spring would be here and we’re all inching to ditch the cabin fever? Well, that’s kind of true but I wish it was a little warmer.
We’re all busy so I’m going to make this short and sweet …

Got plans this weekend? 2.15 – 2.17
Congratulations on surviving Valentine’s Day! Or did you screw up by buying a blender instead of some bling? It’s not too late to make it up to your sweetie. Love can still be in the air.
Tonight try your hand at painting. Jennifer Harwell Art is hosting a Valentine Paint Party complete with heavy hors d’oeuvres catered by Tria paired with a selection of Tria’s finest wines. Two hours (7-9 p.m.) equals two paintings to proudly hang on the walls at home. Call RIGHT NOW 802-7847 because the event sold out last year. Cost is $50 per person. The gallery is located in SoHo Square, Homewood.

We’ve already told you about two chances to see presidential hopefuls Huckabee and Obama on Saturday and Sunday respectively. If it turns out you pick the right one to attend, you’ll be telling your grandkids you witnessed history being made. I personally don’t care who you are supporting. All I ask is that you do some research, pick the one you like and vote. No complaining allowed if you don’t vote. Your first chance is in the Alabama primary, Feb. 5.
Some suggestions after the jump…

Oh my goodness! Did you hear the S-word on last night’s evening news? It’s causing quite a stir … and long lines at the grocery store. I’ve already got my milk, bread and beer so I’m ready for what I’m calling the “2008 Birmingham Snow Event.” The blogging folks at ABC 33/40 have a snow projection map. Let’s just say, I’ll believe it when I see snow angels. Since all the weather guys do act like the “2008 Birmingham Snow Event” is a sure thing Friday night late into Saturday afternoon give or take, you might want to check your pantries too and gather up the necessary supplies. My cold weather tip is to open your kitchen and bath cabinets (especially those on outside walls) to help the pipes stay warm. And if you let the faucets drip, put a cup or pitcher under to catch the water for any plants you have inside/outside. Despite any wet stuff falling from the sky, we’re still in a drought.
While I think the “2008 BSE” calls for hibernation under down comforters, some of you many want to leave the house the rest of the weekend and dance, dance, dance.
