Kay, do you think this approach would increase or decrease our angularity?

Oh it would greatly increase angularity. Greatly. No doubt about it.

Eden, I have to admit I did not read your post all the way through.

Best,
Kay

By the way Eden, if you find your cellar is overloaded with old Bandol that you want to get rid of to make space for other stuff, give me a shout. My wife mentioned that mature Bandol would make a fine Xmas present for her this year.

Check out this week's winebid. I've been doing my best to resist as I need to find space for some Rioja and Huet.

I think Sharon will be happy to store it for you, if you can get it to Paris.

What? It's not like I don't have 5 cases here for friends.

Be there in a month Sharon!

I respectfully disagreeJoe-

Posting old notes here really is not a big deal. In no time at all they go to the bottom of the page and then they don't clutter up the board and then they'll be available to anyone that wants them via the search engine. I can understand not posting forty reposts in a row, so if folks agreed to limit the reposts to drips and drabs, that really shouldn't be a problem.

Another possible solution, which is done on another board, is to create a separate archive folder for reposted notes. That way, folks can just post in there without disturbing the front page.

Aside from the witty banter, the greatest treasure lost on Therapy was the collected tasting experiences and if there's a way to rebuild that here, which there is, than what's the problem with that?

I agree with everything Brad says.

Now I must go vomit.

Twenty year old?

Tsk, tsk. Needs more time.

Brad, will you be bringing Sharon all the wine she bought at Chambers Street?

I have no problem schlepping bottles for friends. Btw, she's storing wine for you and Dougherty as well.
 
She is?

I must've asked her to do so very late one night after Dougherty managed to convince me to hit the Armagnac again, because I seem to have blacked out the whole episode. Anything good?

I like it! It's fresh! New! Exciting!

It'll keep me engaged, because if I'm not, I sometimes forget which threads I posted on.

Thanks Joe for keeping this place hopping, whichever direction it hops in!

Really, I find it simply disorienting. I'm going to go pull the covers over my head now.

It's trends like this that give me the resolve to cultivate my inner agoraphobe.

We shall march with you ever onward into the future, with relish and alacrity!!(does this mean that VLM is still the official greeter? Just because he was on Wine therapy doesn't necessarily mean that he's maintaining the post on Wine Disorder, does it? I mean, not that it's a big deal or anything, but how come he's the only one who gets to welcome visitors with a hearty: FuckyouandwelcometoWineDisorder,theinternet'sfinestwinewebsitewhereyoucantalkaboutrealwineandusefoullanguagewithoutgettingbanned.

Like, it's no skin off of my behind, but I'm just thinking that maybe someone else might want to get in on the action too. It's good practice for when we retire on meager incomes and will need to work in the wine department at WalMart).

I applied at Wal Mart for the position of wine salesman giving as a reference the fact that I was published at Wine Therapy and Wine Disorder. They rejected my application based on that I was overqualified for the position. Obviously they lied based on reality. Can I sue?

You misinterpret my cranial explosion. For the better part of a decade I've been the lonely outcast voice here saying nice things about Turley Cellars petite syrahs (yes, that's how they spell it). I even poured one for vandergrift when he came to town, to fairly little avail. Now suddenly someone else agrees?

Sensory overload.
