We learned too late that Thursday was National Seersucker Day. In the US Congress, Democrats and Republicans showed a rare gesture of solidarity, with all senators and representatives turning up in seersucker suits.
Meanwhile, International Yoga Day has run into problems, at least in Vancouver, where the plan to have several thousand yoga enthusiasts murmuring "Om" on the Burrard Street Bridge has fallen through. (The plan, not the bridge.)
Even though yoga is not in our repertoire, we were looking forward to taking part, wearing our seersucker suit from Harold's of Fort Worth, and joining Premier Clark in attempting the lotus position.
(And hoping not to get locked into it, as one unfortunate lady did in a yoga class at Vancouver's Christ Church Cathedral. She had to be carried out, still in position, by a pair of firemen, at the height of the downtown rush hour. I don't believe she ever came back.)
