what are you doing this weekend?

Driving from Scottsdale to Tuscan on Saturday, prefunction at Dirtbags

I remember sitting in the Dirtbags bathroom for 2 hours while they swept the rest of the bar for underage patrons. Was it worth it? Probably not. But when you are 20 and want to hang out with your friends, you do it.

When did you go to school there? I worked there from 89 - 91.

Oh yeah, back to the thread…

Tonight: Friend’s BDay at Merc Bar

Sat: 2 soccer games and watching the Cats take the first giant leap towards their 1st Rose Bowl ever!

Tailgate @ the IU vs Purdue football game w/a bunch of friends.

What could possibly go wrong?

Go wrong? Other than having to go watch IU and Purdue play football?

Fall here is that slow time when we put up with football before the real sport starts.

So to stay on topic…watching the Heels punk 'Cuse (if they play like they did for the first 35 minutes last night)…or get punked (if they play like they did for the last 5 minutes). Oh and opening up something good to drink.

Saturday to a Sokol Blosser tasting and finally spending all day Sunday volunteering at the Carrboro Film Festival before then partying down at the after party with the filmmakers. (Scorcese won’t be there.)

Note that doesn’t say that we’re actually going to WATCH the game! We do have good seats, and there will be a good deal of taunting amongst friends, but at some point we will all realize that both teams suck and will retire to pop some corks.

… organizing my 7 new arrivals (including my 2 Schraders).
… catching up on my sleep (still jetlagged from China).
… going to my cousins blow-out 50th birthday party at some fancy club (read… loud music) in New York City.
… waiting for Posners midnight e mail.

After a hectic crush, there’s nothing like goin’ domestic. I love hanging by the woodstove, and spending some tiempo con los ninos.

BIG GAME BABY!

I’m predisposed to a ‘Go Cal!’ here – but Stanford has been so good lately, I’d love to see them get a nice tier-2 bowl bid and kick some ass. Go PAC-10!

Raking my leaves(again).
Looking for another wine fridge…
Thanks Garagsite, Cindy et al.


Take care,

Don’t.
This little gadget will save you ton of money

I have 2 and 1 spare.

It will turn your old fridge in the garage into a perfect wine storage

Thanks Serge
That’s cool(or not depending on the temp)
I have heard of the experement method with a timer to do this, but what a neat product.

I’ll be spending a couple of hours at the driving range this morning honing (hopefully) my swing for a skins game on Tuesday. Later I’ll be celebrating my twelve year old grand daughter’s birthday. Champagne for the adults and sparkling cider for the kids. And…go Chargers!

I wish we didn’t live so far. The girl is growing up. Have a great time!
