A guide to help make your day
Calling Parrotheads
• Yo, parrotheads: Come up and see us sometime. Really. The Enquirer hereby issues an invitation to parrotheads: Drop by our 19th-floor photo studio between 5 and 7 p.m. Monday, and we'll take your picture for a photo spread running later in the week. Come in work clothes — suits, uniforms, jeans, whatever — and then change into parrothead gear so we can document your transformation from mild-mannered day worker to party-hearty parrothead. The Enquirer is at 312 Elm St., downtown; take an elevator to 19 and follow the signs to the photo studio.
