I really like to make data driven decisions. So do you have a study (pause to take a sip of wine) to back up that claim?

Do your own study. Just park yourself outside a few wineries and wine tasting establishments and you'll soon get all the info you'll need.

LOL.... Sounds like me.

Hi there - are you getting any of this rain?

[speedy]

Hmmph! Sautern to someone else for the good puns!

Madeira hr, you've got me over a barrel. Ferment it there I thought you were really angry. Let's cask aside our differences. As they say in the vineyards, qu'est syrah, syrah.

"What about people who drink both beer and wine?!" I'M one of those where do I stand. Ha Ha...

It's saké with me if it's saké with you.

We've had just over .25 so far. There was one good shower during church today. We need quite a bit more.

How about your area? Lisa said College Station had quite a bit yesterday and more today.

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

Yes, I woke up to thunder and it's been drizzling all day. I love it!

[speedy]

It's saké with me if it's saké with you.

I'm just a sedimental fool; excuse my Tempranillo insanity. To be perfectly franc, I think I'm Riesling my limit. Butt as always, I appreciate your dry wit and your Sec appeal. Life is a Cabernet my friend, come to the Cabernet. Sorry, have Mersault on me!!

I know a vegetarian who has all kinds of health problems. It's in the genes.

We had one thunderstorm about 8:30 this morning, and a steady drizzle for most of the day. I wish we would get about 4 - 5 inches. The lake is 21 feet low, and our main boat ramp is closed until the water comes back closer to normal.

That reminds to go feed Sylvaner...

> I have known people who thought beer WAS food.

Cask syrah, syrah.
Whatever we'll drink, we'll drink.

Wine drinkers like cheese. Beer drinkers like pretzels.

"Compare those who buy $10 bottles of wine with those who buy $10 bottles of beer."


I don't drink any alcohol at all anymore but a $10 bottle of beer equates to a $75 bottle of wine.

[The Spirit Of Allegiance]

"So beer drinkers' might ale because their diet is wurst?"


I would ferment this hypothesis:

Leapin' Lizards! SomeMersault? Jump Back! Before I join you I'll have to get permission, Alsace Lorraine.

"Researchers analyzed 3.5 million transactions chosen at random from 98 outlets of two large Danish supermarket chains over a six-month period. < snip > Details of items bought, the number and price of the items were recorded."

It all sounds anonymous but those 'member cards' and keys track every purchase and they use that to target local and online pitches, of course. And many onilne firms are so in bed with each other that it is astonishing where this data may show up, in Business Development deals, Joint Ventures, Mergers/Acquisitions....
