Hmm, this was your last post on the subject, so 7, is the 2 difference the parcel 17 that may or may not have been released and you allotted anyway?

Well that settles it... woot-off is over. A bag followed by a monkey. ooh a woot cape

you don't have any kind of woot tracker loaded?

in line with the general kvetching, I had that "your order is in" thing on the bag that was up a few minutes ago, but there's nothing in my acct.

also, monkeys are up, get 'em while they're hot.

Yeah I use chrome with the woot watcher extension and it does that.

Wow after all those order denied screens, I just got an email receipt for c r a p!

Okay, evidently the concept of a WLFIWBM is beyond me. Since I now have 6 WW orders on the way (let alone Tablas Creek WC, Scott Harvey WC (2 sets - 1869 & Griffins(2 bottles)), and a Switchback 2009 Old Vine PS order) ...

Black Zeppelin PS, SH Trio (like I don't have enough from the WC?), Meeker Cabs, D-H PS, Davis Cuvee Luke, & Summerland LH Viognier. Also the bags, but those don't go in the locker.


Looks like I need to have another gathering at my Wine Locker!!


Edit: And don't get me started on the WW orders (Meyer Mag, Barra Dolce, VR PS, KR PS, Clayhouse PS, Tercero PS (gee, not too many PS there?), Chateau d'Abalone, & Dusi Zin) sitting there, waiting for me to get them out of storage into a locker.

Drank some Syrah (Madison Cellars & Saxon Brown) last weekend, but need more help!

Got monkeys! Now, I'm going to bed. Finally finished updating the google docs for Shakespeare in Delaware Park's Fabulous Feast Dinner and Auction next week Sat. It should be a fun time and we have some really nice items.

Yes, I did drink tenuki's wine. It was verrrrry tasty! We need to order that again!
How about I make you a chocolate dessert to make up for it? In my defense, some guests opened one of your bottles. I now put other people's wine elsewhere, not in the wine fridge.

So, if imagine4vr has the wine we will split, I can't drink your share.

To the woot gods - I loved this woot-off. I couldn't access the site from my mobile device, and it is not much better here at home, so I won't buy anything. It took 3 attempts to be able to post. Great wibm* for me!

*woot imposed buying moratorium

Haha, I'm just giving you a hard time Hope things are well.

Great ... now it only shows 1 Woot (Yellow) on top, but posts still show me as Black. Now if it wasn't missing the 5 Spring Training's as well!

But I guess they worked their little paws to the bone fixing all the problems yesterday.

We may have to arrange a bay area caravan down to you. Sounds like you could really use our help drinking your wine!!

I'm caravanning on Tuesday. Then again the following Monday. I volunteer to help Sparky with his wine "problem".

oh right, I don't hve those marked in my "tenuki" bin. They should be shipping direct to sanity when jeff gets around to bottling which may or may not be in time for vegas.

Sounds like we need to have a "Welcome to SoCal" party for Klez .... Who's in for next Saturday?

MarkDaSpark wrote:Sounds like we need to have a "Welcome to SoCal" party for Klez .... Who's in for next Saturday?

What about planning a SoCal gathering sometime down the road? We might be down for a road trip.

For those interested, invino has a couple of Kosher wines up right now, as well as some Mashuga nuts.

mother wrote:I typically don't bid against friends/acquaintances unless it's for charity. You do whatever your little voice in your head tells you to ;)

So Loweeeeeel from NY is the current high bidder on the 3 bottles up this week.

Based on the advice here, I should snipe him? ;)

MarkDaSpark wrote:Sounds like we need to have a "Welcome to SoCal" party for Klez .... Who's in for next Saturday?

I can't do it until after Passover...I think that means 30+ minutes after sundown Saturday night, April 14. Well, at least not combine wine with tasty foodstuffs!

Speaking of which...anybody in LA have an opening for one more at a seder?

Aww that stinks man, being alone for pesach. Unfortunately all of my family that moves to SoCal become year round bread eating heathens...

Just say when. It's not like we really need a reason to drink, but it helps!

Aren't all nuts considered mashugana?

Well, considering he doesn't live all that far from you, and probably knows where you live ... I highly doubt that it would be healthy for you.

Now if I was the high bidder, you probably would be safe (until your next bid!), since while I have an idea of where you live, I'm far enough away (and keep missing flying out to visit for the Clambake) that you would be safe. Or as safe as one can be until Nallie tiptoes in on her Stilettos in the night.

Why because I would drink too much 2003 Corison? muhaha

Yeah, not ideal. But sometimes you've gotta make compromises.

You forgot the Etoile Rose in there. Hey - I tried, but there's only so much one person can do when faced with your tidal wave of juice!

Celebrity sighting today! I'm at Dulles baggage claim waiting for my luggage to come off the airplane, when I notice this guy who looks kind of familiar also waiting at the carousel.

Hey -- that kinda looks like...

Nah! You're imagining things.

But you *did* just get off a flight from LA.

Yep. It's Robert Redford. Very handsome in person! No entourage. Wearing jeans, a blue long-sleeved t-shirt, a leather jacket, and a blue knit ski cap. He looks like he just came in off the ranch after feeding the horses on the back 40. He struck me a looking like he's about 65, not the 75 that he actually is.

And I don't have a camera handy.

How exciting and disappointing at the same time!!

For some disappointing reading check the last page of the comments on the inspiration Pinot offer. I was in on this and fear there may have been some storage issues.

Just made my wife laugh so hard she upset her stomach and threw up.
In the draw free app I was supposed to draw trombone and drew a tuba thinking that a trombone looked like a tuba. The mind is a terrible thing to waste.............

No. Because someone might force you to drink too much White Zin. Or Thunderbird.

mommadeb1 wrote:you actually DRANK some of your wine? I am in total shock!!

Well, it has been around two months or so since I last opened one of my bottles (winery provided labrat bottles don't count!), so it was about time.

You don't need a castle mandate to shoot someone for attempting to do that to you...

if you want them and value them at a higher price yes. If he babyes remind him he loves capitalism and your market bore more
