Thanks for the note. Much better than that Tru Blood crap they drink in Louisiana these days. Have you ever had the 1492 vintage? I found it more forward and needs to be drunk young as it is more of a New World style.

Now that's the spirit. Good stuff, good stuff.

Clearly somebody on this site has a personal calendar with "Log onto WS as Bram Stoker" on every year's Halloween.

This is a VERY clever thread. I love the Robert Goulet references. Big Grin

Rothko, I'm guessing Vino Me, though there are a few troubling aspects. Seaquam has disclaimed, though I'd take that with a grain or two, since this is perhaps more his style. Still, VM has the habit of revisiting old classics, and the grace with our language to draft this. I'd also posit that the Board-O dig ("...next sip.") in the last sentance is VM-like.

  • With descriptors like this, shouldn't this be posted in another certain magizine's Forum? Smile

    Agreed.
    Not to point fingers, but this post is very VMish. If I were a betting man, this is where my money would lay.

    The taste is too bitter and astringent at the shameful words of someone’s false claims to my bloodline. Not a novel, but rather cheap and tawdry fair.

    It is a cowards lie, as I would never appear as a character in my own story. I will have my revenge for this vile betrayal!
