Did you see in the news they spotted that man in the woods again, licking the ground? I heard about that. Yeah, they’re calling him “Johnny Floor-Licker.” Did they catch him? I don’t think he’s a danger to the public. He’s just a guy who goes around licking the ground. It’s so weird. Why in […]

In one corner, we’ve got the scintillatingly sippable Judd’s Hill 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon from the one and only Napa Valley, and in the other corner, we have the delectably delicious Judd’s Hill 2009 Central Coast Pinot Noir from the Santa Lucia Highlands. Who will win? Which will be the victor in this ultimate battle of […]

Okay, so maybe it’s not the type of hope you’re looking for right now. Maybe you’re looking for hope in the form of a rescue helicopter or an abundant source of food, and we might not have that, but still, don’t say we have no hope when we clearly do have ONEHOPE. No, you are […]

I’m one of those guys. When I want something, I go after it. And if I happen to find your bubblegum and rose potpourri aroma particularly titillating, I’m gonna let you know. You think Burt Reynolds scored Loni Anderson by twiddling his thumbs? Of course not. Heck! Hugh Hefner didn’t become the world’s foremost playboy […]

Pinot Noir is good for a get-together, nice in the background at dinner, and yet also able to carry an evening by itself. Sounds a lot like a respectable classic rock CD, doesn’t it? Sure, wine is normally thought of as high class and rock-n-roll thought of as, well, slightly less. But today the hardest […]

Today we visit Her Ladyship, Bertha Von Pewterschnapps, and discover what a day in the life of a Countess is like. “When I wake in the morning, the first thing I do is pull the cord for the bell above my head to summon the girl that rings the other bell to summon the girl […]

Long ago, in a distant garden, there was a mole. A cuddly little mole. And on a crisp winter’s night, that mole looked up at the sky, and made himself a pledge. “I pledge,” he said in his tiny adorable voice, “to build the greatest mountain the world has ever seen.” And even though no […]

Ah, the 44? parallel north. The line that unites Oregon, New York, Nova Scotia, Bosnia, France and Italy. The line that touches two or three different -stans, a whole bunch of China, Hokkaido in Japan, and probably some ducks somewhere in the mid-Atlantic. We haven’t really researched that part but we’re guessing. And THAT’S why […]

When I first met Bianca, I was all “Hey, sure, I love wine!” even though I never actually knew anything about wine really. But I do know what I like, and what I like is fruit and toasted oak, especially when it’s involved with rich sauces, game, and salmon. And I was so happy when […]
