Winos

We have a French neighbor in the new building.

Of course.

He had a wine tasting on Saturday and it was pretty fun. Everyone there was friendly and chatty, and I rather enjoyed myself.

The snacks were delicious. Lots of cheese at the right temperature, breads, olives and stuffed Italian things. I managed to eat just the right amount to keep my wine tasting from devolving into drunken evaluations and moronic pronouncements (ex: �This one has a rosy nose!�)

They don�t tell you this in high school, but drinking is a valuable skill. It takes years of experimentation to arrive at the ideal recipe for a perfect buzz, but once you find the formula, you are guaranteed hours of felicitous conversation and social interaction. You heard it here first: drinking is important.
