Heh! It's probably wise counsel.
I have a 1987 bottle of Le Sable Cabernet Sauvignon in the back of my cabinet. I keep it because it says it is a product of Yugoslavia. Yugoslavia as it was in 1987 doesn't exist anymore!
it's from the Primorski Region...whatever that means.
Math hates me, and I don't go where I'm not wanted :)
heh! Found this on the internet...Maybe 1987 was a better year?
"Cabernet Sauvignon Primorski 1986
Tanky, dirty and gamy. A flawed wine that's best avoided. "
I'd check to make sure it's still good - yes, wines get better with age, but they can sometimes get... nasty. Don't just go opening it. Don't drink your keepsake!
Winebibber!
A little wine is good for the stomach, you know. Biblical, that is.
Anyway, I'm Presbyterian, not Baptist. We consider drinking in moderation a matter of indifference. ;-p
I think it's likely toxic by now...can't even find info on the winery.
'sides, aren't you supposed to lay it on it's side...keep the cork moist? It's been upright for probably a decade.
Um... yeah... I wouldn't drink it, no matter how good for you...
I'm off talking about cars again...
It's "O" gauge.
It's not storming at the moment...but the wind out there is something else. Keeps starting the dogs barking, 'cause they apparently think we're being invaded or something.
He needs a bigger table, but I wonder if he can do this: Graduated Trestle Set - Lionel® Train Shop
Oh, wind, huh... it's gotten bad here, but the lines seem to be underground, so we're ok.
Hello!
Jedis are watching Rudolph...
Thanks for the info. Some tree hugging types were crying over this and I was able to set them straight. (not that that helps them, but it does shut them up for a while)
We lose power if anyone sneezes hard.
Well...not quite, but almost.
Actually that's more true in the town where I work than it is here. It takes a pretty good storm for us to lose it.
But there...sometimes we'll lose it on a clear, windless day, for no apparent reason at all. And it'll take forever to come back. It's frustrating sometimes.
Annoying!
How's your evening?
OK. Doing a bit more writing. I sure hope I can finish this durn book in time!
Got in my 2000 words today, almost. About two hundred to go...then it's anime time.
Anime! Woot!
I have an episode of "Amazing Race". It goes on as soon as Hugh Hewitt's over - I love his show. He's much better than a blowhard like Hannity.
I might have to take tomorrow off work to write this paper. Just so I don't get stuck doing something stupid like pulling an all-nighter tomorrow night or finishing it up at work on friday.
