As Friday begins, it is time to start thinking about the weekend.

- The Mets face the Dodgers in a three-game weekend series at Shea. Mets v. Dodgers always seems to be a good game, and the Mets have an opportunity to really build up a winning streak here against the struggling L.A. Team. Pedro is scheduled to pitch on Saturday at 3PM, which makes it a can't miss event. Sunday's game is at 1PM.

- Mr. And Mrs. Base10 were going to take time out to watch the individual time trial of the Tour de France on Saturday, the only real stage left. The Tour has unfortunately become somewhat anticlimactic. Lance is so far ahead of any competition that even Base10 questions the need to wake up early on Saturday to watch it.

- Photography. Base10 will undoubtedly take some photos over the weekend. If watching the Tour is off, Rockaway may be an option. But Base10 needs a compact tripod, since the legs on his old tripod don't seem to lock anymore. Another reason to stop by J&R today! Even if we watch the Tour, there's always photography downtown to satisfy the urge. The other thing I want to try is using my scanner to digitize a B&W negative to see how that goes.

More weekend planning later. Maybe there's NASCAR as well.
