For The Love Of Port

I was just happy I finally got cable so for the first time in my life I was able to watch the first 2 days of a tournament!! woohooo lol

heh too bad there's no wine with cow themes...i think heh I wouldn't mind Alan rustling us up a cow for dinner

ahahah for a split second there...lol

Wow Alex you too?! I've met a few others who can't drink beer but they were all non alcohol drinking type people What were you doing at the Guiness brewery? hehe thats like a peanut allergy person visiting the Planters Peanut factory :lol: For the longest time i've been wanting to find one I could d...

lol Derek it just means to throw up

I guess I seem to soak up odd phrases here n there

hehe beer tn thats new
too bad I've never been able to drink beer...4 sips and i'm heading to the bathroom to toss my cookies :x I've been looking for years to find one that I can stomach...no luck yet

You guys can go see Beckers in LA next year...it'll be like he never left ManU hehe

Last year I was having dinner with a friend at a restaurant in the city(I was then still newly introduced to wine) and I decided to try a glass of port after dinner since I heard/read so much about it... it was a 1980 Dow's...and it blew me away :yumyum: I was instantly hooked! Went out a couple day...

No pics of it there...anyone have a pic of it? I use this one which is similar to a pulltaps but a lil sexier imo heh Does anyone use the Ahh-So for older corks and such? I'm so incapable of using the prong type I've yet to get a single cork out with it :oops: Here's a great video if anyone hasn't s...

Oh yeah definitely how many times have we all Not ordered another bottle since the first one cost an arm and a leg and your little "dinner out" just doubled in cost....one of my Biggest pet peeves is when the service industry says "well if you can't afford it you shouldn't be eating o...

True an uninspired wine selection does suck but that one actually requires effort on the part of the restaurant to actually spend time/money to taste thru diff wines and make a personal decision...I know between countries its kinda different(and also between restaurants also) but the "Service I...

#3 is pretty anti-consumer...I won't begrudge a restaurant profit...but that $4 wine would probably sell even more at a $16-19 range but who am I to say. All I know is that restaurants that seriously jack up the prices (3-4-500%range) will eventually feel the backlash if the average customer wises u...

Standing its whole life could be a possibility if it was bought recently at a retailer...how was the sediment? was there a lot or a little? Maybe the port houses released a whole bunch into the market recently? kinda like Graham's Millenium Magnum a few years ago...the question is did they bottle it...

ok Alex & Andy your mission should you choose to accept it is...to drink/consume ALL "fake/non-duoro" port that is out on the market and rid the world of the evil known as non portuguese port! heh

hehe well the reason would be...we can't fix anything if all the good people are bailing ship or keeping their mouth shut :mrgreen: For example...non specifically USA related but probably might have some impact on us/world and definite impact on me...if everyone would complain to their congressman a...

I'm not usually the biggest war movie fan (I did promise Dave L. that I'd watch Apocalypse Now someday tho) maybe I'll watch this sometime but Syriana is on my to watch list. I wanted to say that my wife (who is a full blooded Jpnese born and raised there/I'm a halfling born n raised in NY) watched ...
