Playa Pimp, Shady and Macon Bacon came over to get a head start celebrating Ok Phansa. There's something about the end of any lentish event that makes you crave something damn spicy.

Last night the family decided to do something together. We thought it over and it finally occurred to us. What says family values and good ol' fashioned fun like getting a tattoo on 6th Street? Well, not a permanent tattoo... not yet anyway. We got inked up Henna style ;)

Today was the first Saturday in August. Any good Austiner knows that has serious implications... namely, free beer at Independence Brewery!
