I'm fixing to uncork a bottle of Coppola. Anybody want to hang out and chat?

[Aristus]

I've got no particular place to go...

[Sekhmets Daughter]

1. Looks lovely...

I'll join you for a glass!

[Aristus]

2. For you, SD...

Nice to see you...

[Sekhmets Daughter]

3. Thank you Ari...

To your health!

[Aristus]

9. And to yours...

I actually wrote this reply earlier, but mistook 'Preview' for 'Post my repy!' and lost it.

[Sekhmets Daughter]

13. My favorite is when I reply to myself!

Several of my 'self-deletes' have been due to that mischance!

[Aristus]

14. Sometimes it's the only way to have an intelligent conversation!

[Sekhmets Daughter]

15. Oh that's funny....

rather like "I talk to myself because I like my own answers best!'

[cliffordu]

4. I gots the 14 hands 2010 cabernet.

GREAT fucking wine for 10 bucks. No, really.

[Aristus]

5. I believe you. There are a lot of great wines out there that are inexpensive.

French mechanics and Italian longshoremen drink this stuff, so they have to make affordable varieties.

I'm getting the feeling that 2010 was a good year for cabernet.

Mine is a 2011 Claret. Incredible color, and lots of spicy notes.

[Sekhmets Daughter]

6. Gnarly Head vineyards...

produces some great inexpensive wines as well. I just recently discovered them!

[Aristus]

10. I'll have to give them a try.

Always looking for new pleasures...

[Sekhmets Daughter]

12. They have an old vine Zin that's wonderful...

I like their Pinot Noir and Cabernet very much as well. Haven't tried the Merlot...can't find it around here.

[Aristus]

16. I haven't had Zinfandel in ages.

It goes very well with pasta, I have found...

[Sekhmets Daughter]

17. And cheese... but I drink red wines with everything...

so as far as I'm concerned they go with everything! I'm just a philistine...

[Aristus]

18. Red wine goes with everything?

That's not being a philistine. That's being sophisticated.

'Light beer goes with everything!' ? Now that's being a philistine!

[Sekhmets Daughter]

20. I am so relieved!

[nolabear]

8. And the best damned PR person in the business.

It's EVERYWHERE.

[cliffordu]

25. Really - and I can't believe how good it actually is, for the money.

[nolabear]

7. Not unless you wanna hear about my owie.

[Aristus]

11. Tell me about your owie.

Cut your finger, I think, didn't you?

[nolabear]

19. Yeah, *sniff*. I think I'll make it though.

I'm a brave little soldier.

[Aristus]

22. Okay. Feel better.

[hibbing]

21. As in Francis Ford?

Hey,
If so, I have been to his winery several times, it is a pretty neat place. There is the car from Tucker, and a bunch of other memorabilia from some of his other movies, like the desk from the Godfather, and his Academy Awards. It also has a fun restaurant. I would recommend it for anyone that visits the region, free to walk around and look at the memorabilia.

Peace

[Aristus]

23. Yes, the same.

And thanks for the info. In Tacoma, we have a car museum that has its own Tucker. It's cool to see up close.

[edbermac]

24. Why is one of the top film directors around growing grapes?

Ugh

[Lady Freedom Returns]

26. Coppola? As in...
