QOTD: Jets 31 Pats 30
When describing that last wine you needed to bring back your old acronym, RWC.
Happy Anniversary and Happy Birthday!

I haven’t watched this ep yet, but:
Pats 27, Jets 21

I’m really curious to try that syrah. Those kinds of wine are fun for me.

QOTD: I can’t stand Favre, so I’m just going to say that the Pats will win. No score prediction.

Gary -

Congrats on your anniversary and b-day!

QOTD: So far, my prediction for the season record is intact, so, unfortunately, I’m gonna have to stick with my pre-season pick. Jets lose . . . It’ll be close . . . let’s say 24-20 with Favrrrrrre heaving up a last minute interception.

RE: Thanksgiving pack — not this year, as I’m a little overstocked as it is. I need to drink down my inventory!

Hi Gary, I like the mixed bag format !

QOTD: I hope the Jets win (it s good to see you in a good mood), although I don’t really understand American football.

As for the secret pack… I m in the UK and sadly I can’t get Wine Library wines sent accros. If you start shipping the packs to the UK, I’ll definitly get one!

Make the Euro-vayniacs super happy and ship secret packs to the Old world

I have never written anything. Ever. Total lurker for a very long while.

The cough drops that you also referred to in your Oregon Pinot Noir tasting in June (I think) are called Luden’s. White box. Do nothing but taste delicious.

You have taught me more than any single other source and for that, I am immensely appreciative.

I used to love Luden’s cough drops!
