A toast

[SFJoe]

A group of us at a fabulous event in midtown Manhattan tonight all raised our glasses as one to toast Cory Cartwright with 1989 Clos des Briords.

 

[Cory Cartwright]

I wasn't there

i also toasted the pig. but, that was by myself and is probably unrelated to cory's love of aged melon...

Oh, thanks. Actually, I was referring to Cory, in yet another weak effort at humor.

This looks a bit like groundless pig ... very tasty groundless pig.

 

[Sharon Bowman]

It does look like a pig torpedo.

 

[Kevin Roberts]

It does look like a pig pink torpedo.

blah blah blah blah flesh tuxedo.

 

[Ian Fitzsimmons]

I'm uneasy with where this chat is headed ...

Great minds think alike; so do ours, Kevin.

The metaphor doesn't usually include teeth and a snout. Well, I suppose I shouldn't speak for others. Chacun son torpille porc, or however one writes that.

It was pig day!

Kitchen prep.

And in action.

Not all pigs are created equal. This guy was especially tasty.

The scene.

Even folks from Brooklyn came!

Nice short write-up of the groundless pig (aka pink torpedo?) event in BrooklynGuy's blog (http://brooklynguyloveswine.blogspot.com/). Who knew Levi and Joe were such shameless publicity hounds?

Bloggers aren't too expensive if you buy in volume.

I thank you guys for giving me the idea to rewatch "Spinal Tap" this weekend. I hadn't seen it in years and years. It is perfection of its kind.

Though I don't think I'll be able to listen to Led Zeppelin for a while.

Yes, but you need constant smart thoughts to realize that.

Sometimes the back story is better than the final edit. This recording that Tony Hendra did for The Moth is one of those.

Forever works for me.

The link has an extra http:// at the beginning so it doesn't work. Delete it and it works.
