OK, now that they've killed Osama Bin Laden, can Andy or someone important please lobby the TSA, so we can board airplanes with corkscrews or at least with our bottles of wine? PLEASE!!!!!!

At Stewart's house the other night during his 40th birthday celebration, we had several bottles of 1971 wines. The Durand was brought out to do its duty and I was the bartender that evening. Of the five bottles I opened, only one did not come out intact. It was an over-the-hill-should've-been-consumed 15 years ago Chianti Classico Res. The others were solid and the Durand worked beautifully on the Chat. Yquem. We also had a 1971 Noval Colheita which was one of the finer bottles of this Port that I've tasted.

OK, who can start calling the TSA folks? [d_training.gif]
Ambition driven by passion, rather than money, is as strong an elixir as is Port. http://www.fortheloveofport.com
