I usually get these going on Wednesdays, but with the flurry of player review posts and that Chapman post taking up a lot of my time, it completely slipped my mind. Anyway, here we are on the Friday before a long weekend, so the natural question is: Any big holiday plans? I have a friend coming to town with some other friends to celebrate his 40th birthday tonight, there's a Timbers game Saturday night, then on Sunday I'm doing my first 100 mile bike ride of the spring. Other than that, no real plans - I'm not a camping person, the only way I like being outdoors is at a table at a bar with an outdoor seating area.

What about you? Are you the camping type? Any big adventurous plans for the weekend? Anything else on your mind?
