Piece of cake, mstreger! Nice to hear from you. Good God, man......you're averaging a post a year!!  Do try not to tire yourself out!!!! You can keep an eye on the offline section here and chime in on any offline you'd like to attend. Membership is free and we are notoriously kind to new members! Simply bring an aged First Growth to your first event and you're in!  If you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me at purplehaze1956 at yahoo dot com! PH

Any last minute additions or deletions of wine should be made in the next few days. I, for one, am having difficulty finding my 1994 Insignia.  Will have to substitute for a 1995 Caymus Special Select if I can't find it. I cannot wait until I can build a proper cellar and quit working out of these damn wine fridges!!!  PH

If you don't have the aged First Growth, the written test is pretty easy, but I'd study up for the blind tasting (hint: it's all Yellow Tail and Boone's).

mstreger, Please know one of the many prerequisites is to hold all wine drinkings from Texas in the highest of esteem.  Also, please know Texans taught our dear friends in Maryland everything they know!

Do understand that to do this, you first must actually attend an offline, drink a LOT of wine. It takes a little lubrication to hold this gang in any kind of esteem, but you must be "high" to hold them in high esteem. quote: Also, please know Texans taught our dear friends in Maryland everything they know! Well......let's say that there are a few things we haven't learned from the Texans!!  PH

For those who have not been to Equinox, you might want to allow a couple extra minutes. The damned place isn't the easiest restaurant to find in the District. Parking garage is just to the left of Equinox if you're facing the restaurant from the street! 5 days!!  PH

It will be great to have additional Cowboy fans in the room. We should just ditch these deadskin fans and leave the private room for those who know football!
