"bullied by a wine snob"
A wine snob? Singular? Don't you know we travel in packs? Just the other day me and my gang (Hell's Oenophiles, NY chapter) saw some poor non-geek swilling Barton & Guestier Vouvray. We bitch-slapped the guy and forced some Huet demi-sec down his throat. Good thing he didn't have that book! |

"I'm poised with a glass of Thirsty Lizard
Merlot at this very moment... " We'll work you over with some Lafleur. You should see our outfits- sleeveless denim jackets with our emblem (a skull in a Reidel Burgundy glass) and motto ("Born to say pain grille"). |

Oh, sure, *Now* you let me know that B&G makes lousy Vouvray. That's $9
I'll never get back. :-) Interestingly enough, the seller lives in the same city as I do. And the book looks interesting. But it violates my policy against spam to buy it.
