[update: 2/28/08, 11:59 am] I just received a note from El Presidente: Friday night is "Indian Meal Night" at South Forty!! So if anyone is planning to head down south a little earlier, let him know so he can reserve you a seat. A weekend in Altona with curry, bike racing, and college hoops. Sounds perfect. I'll check the schedule and see if we can make it work.
