It's been weeks since we've had a weekend off, where we didn't have to get up for anything at all, and it was wonderful. Spent the day packing and prepping for our upcoming trips. The Universal Packing List was a big help. Some of the tips and comments they give with the list are truly valuable. The idea to cut up our enormous Lonely Planet Thailand guide by country is brilliant. The binding glue will keep each section together, and we'll use paperclips to be sure.

Tonight it's back to Yield for a nice bottle of wine, then off to our friend's disco birthday party! Happy 30th Sarah!!

Got 2 bands for you to check out. Oranger is playing in SF soon, in a venue I've never heard of. Then give a listen to The 88.

For video, please enjoy this stunt a group of people pulled in Central Park. It's a fake hypnotist with some friends planted in the growing audience. Things get a little intense and it's damn funny. Last offering is a great little flash movie Animation vs. Animator.

Alright, back to packing. Have a great saturday night!
