GET TO IT
A guide to help make your day
Going out
• Antiques capital: In the Midwest, that's Waynesville. The town's Old Main Street Antiques Show will be 9 a.m.-5 p.m. today, with more than 40 dealers and 35 shops. (937) 278-0410.
• Old-time music: Catch the 2 p.m. concert today that's part of the Southern Ohio Dulcimer Festival at the OK Warehouse in Ripley. (937) 392-9274.
Taste of Cincinnati
• Day two: When you go to Taste (noon-11 p.m. on Central Parkway, downtown) check out the dish that won Best of Taste in the Seafood Entree category: La Salsa Fresh Mexican Grille's Baja Fish Taco. The Guess Who plays 9 p.m.
Staying in
• Critic's picks: If you can't make it to Paramount's Kings Island, then ride the Beast on the Top 10 Coasters on the Discovery Channel (8 p.m.). And if Erich Kunzel's National Memorial Day Concert (8 p.m., Channels 48, 54, 16) isn't your thing, TV Critic John Kiesewetter recommends The Passion of Ayn Rand (8 p.m. Showtime), starring Helen Mirren as the novelist who seduces a younger man (Eric Stoltz), or Tom Hanks' That Thing You Do (9 p.m., VH1).
• Web site of the day: To speed up the moving process, Classified Ventures in Chicago has accumulated a list of 900,000 apartments in 43 states and plunked them in your computer at, surprise, www.apartments.com Narrow your search by geography, numbers of bedrooms and bathrooms, price ranges, pet policies and laundry and exercise facilities. Information: (888) 658-7368.
What's in stores today
• Countdown: The folks who brought us the Millennium 2000 Countdown Clock has introduced a slew of models to help count down the days, hours, minutes and seconds to life's biggest occasions: graduation, wedding day, baby's due date and retirement. The clocks ($24.95) can be found in catalogs and specialty gifts shops, or ordered directly: www.countdowntime.com or (888) 313-2001
Brand spankin' new
• Nose for Nitro: World Championship Wrestling has licensed the perfume chain Perfumania to sell WCW Nitro, a men's perfume. “It will be upscale,” Perfumania's Ilia Lekach told The New York Times.
Planning ahead
• A day away: Hear “Musical Tales” at the Cincinnati Symphony Youth Orchestra's Memorial Day Concert, 3 p.m. Monday in Eden Park's Seasongood Pavilion. If it rains, head to Walnut Hills High School. 621-1919.
