Faaabulous Fridays
Late last night, after a longish rehearsal for "Kiss Me, Kate" (our production opens next Friday), we were talking with our young friend and Isaac's co-worker Sarah. Who knows exactly how the topic came up, but the bigger context was musicals and how, perhaps, people at "the office" would be better off if they just burst into song every now and then.
Coming along another track altogether was a random train of thought about "casual Friday", and how it is that what's "appropriate business attire" can change from day to day, a somewhat foreign concept for me anyway as the academic scientist / researcher, although I have been known to wear ties for certain occasions.
It struck us that what many, many workplaces could benefit from would be "Faaabulous Friday" — fun clothes, fun attitudes, and good production values, perhaps even with people bursting spontaneously into song and the occasional "ta da!" I'm thinking about making it policy for Ars Hermeneutica.

I welcome comments -- even dissent -- but I will delete without notice irrelevant, rude, psychotic, or incomprehensible comments, particularly those that I deem homophobic, unless they are amusing. The same goes for commercial comments and trackbacks. Sorry, but it's my blog and my decisions are final.

I'm thinking about something along these lines for the White House. Gilbert & Sullivan, anyone?
