This edition of The Week That Was is brought to you by Snowdrift, the Wesson oil shortening.

First order of business: if you haven’t voted in my latest Battle of the Bands, voting ends tomorrow at noon, so be sure to go over and vote.
Tomorrow, according to Chase’s Calendar of Events, is Southern Hemisphere Hoodie-Hoo Day. That’s the day when “you’re supposed to go outdoors and scream ‘Hoodie-Hoo!’ to chase away winter.” That is, if you live in the Southern Hemisphere. It was invented by a man named Thomas Roy, who also designated February 20 as Northern Hemisphere Hoodie-Hoo Day.

You can use it in place of words like “thingamajig” and “doohickey,” if that helps.

If more people “up here” scream “Hoodie-Hoo!”, will winter stay down there?
