Yesterday I wore red again. I also noticed that instead of 1 in perhaps 100 wearing red, I saw perhaps 1 in 20 wearing red. I had to make a beeline down to the Richmond Fair yesterday to drop off some things for our EDA booth and noticed the gatekeepers wearing red and asked them if it was Richmond Fair attire or for Red Fridays and both gatekeepers responded it was for Red Fridays.
My wife and I both were wearing red when we went out for our usual Friday night dinner (which happened to double as T-Bone’s birthday dinner – He turned 14 yesterday) and I noticed that on average there was one person in each family wearing red. My wife says that people just wear red, but I couldn’t help noticing it was usually an elderly person or the male in the family wearing red. It may have been a coincidence, but I would rather guess that people are catching on to this idea here in Ottawa.
Next Friday at Noon is the big gettogether on Parliament Hill from noon until 1pm. I wish the kids were out of school so I could bring them down with me, but instead I will try to hook up with a couple of other bloggers for the gathering and a late lunch.
On that note, if anyone in the Ottawa area is going to be down at the Richmond Fair, stop by the Conservative Party booth. I will be there from 9am until 1230pm today. (don’t forget to bring me a double double!!)

elderly people and men wearing red on fridays, sounds like a ground swell of support to me, or maybe everything else was in the wash……

Jeff, Why do you come to our blogs and drop bombs. We don’t come down to your playground and knock the dicks out of your mouth do we?
Cynical prick….

My entire family wore red last friday, as did a number of my co-workers (teachers). The word is spreading.
Don’t mind jeff, he is still waiting for his vampire freaks account. Hopefully when he gets it, he will have better things to do with his time.
