Who's this Todd guy?

A nice guy who started a board for people who had been kicked off of Squires. Unfortunately that means aside from many good people it's also has Albanians.
As I mentioned a minute ago.

Fuck, we have Miller, Coad and Connell. I'm done, what more do we need?

Chopped liver.

That, too, seems to be in good supply.

I calls them as they is.

But until Coad calls them, they ain't.

(With a nod to the linguistics prof whose joke I mangled for the above.)

Coad??? I want to see a severed six inch lock. Or a URL.

I think that is the commonly accepted response.

Now to watch a downloaded episode of Dexter, eat Hamburger Helper and drink Branger Muscadet. Yes, all at once.

All are welcome.

I can still read the Parker board due to wine biz account access, postings are down, about one page's worth a day. Civil discussion with no mention of the exodus or anything like that.

Why would you expect anything else? Those who remain are either ITB or genuinely enjoy the the king's fancy new finery and fervently look forward to the forum moving to "the next level."
 
We don't seem to have that many new posters, but we are making up for it with more posts by the same old posters. Good showing all us boring old, oldbe, hacks.
 
I may be cynical, but I'd also expect the editorial board over there, having taken the leap, actively to quash dissenting discussion of their polices.

Your Freudian slip is showing, Ian. Regarding your point: like they weren't already???

Ever the cynic,

Callahan, and with memory jogged by last night's neocorked* bottle, DHP.

*Closure was fine, but wine was meh. An P et R Gauthier 'Soif de Jour' was not I expected. '08 Fritz Haag BJS kab much better, under screwcap! Also had a very nice '93 Ch. Gloria from half.

DHP is uninterested in online wine chat, as of our most recent conversation. Alas.
Don't know who DHP is, but did you tell them that we don't really chat about wine here.

The best place on the intertubes to talk about talking about wine.
