Bought a 2005 Noble Medoc mini-bottle and popped it in the office (Sat afternoon Korea time) after taking my son to the bath house. A bit dry and hot (the wine), should be better in a few hours I hope. Tomorrow we’re playing Ultimate Frisbee down by the river, then toss some darts at home in preparation for Monday night league. Pretty average weekend overall.

FYI, not officially a “lurker”, but primarily a iPod viewer so I seldom comment.

I believe you are losing friends and vendors as you as honestly as possible give us your best effort in doing that thing you do. It is a sad thing however, and it makes me all the more appreciative of the skill and honesty you continually bring to your show. It truely is the most fascinating aspect of it. So thanks for once again laying it on the line and making us feel important to you. You walk your talk.

Easter is the big deal in my household. Saturday is prep day. Sunday we celebrate with family and friends. Maybe I should open an Oregon(e) Pinot!

big time opportunity this weekend for a local band that I love. Comprised of 14-15yr olds they’re bringing the thunder big time. Big free concert this Sat with some big name music people coming to check them out. I’ve known the guitar player for a couple years now (since he was 12, playing open mics and small gigs). Pretty soon I’ll be hearing about their european tours ‘n’ stuff. But it’s been awesome to watch them develop. And I’m bringing all my peeps for a huge blow out show tomorrow. Hot Toast
