Confessions of a Litigious Mind

The random, irrelevant musings of a law school graduate.

it tastes like the back of a fucking L.A. school bus

dont be fooled by the post about the gas company, for that was just a hiccup in one day of what has been a fabulous 2006 so far. i couldnt be in a better mood today, and i'm also very excited about doing this next month. it's almost 330 and i still havent had coffee, soda, or tea today...how am i not flipping out yet?

for those of you who doubted my class, dont be too ashamed. i mean, yes, it's a shameful thing, but you couldn't have possibly known i was this classy.


I like to think about what was going on the year the grapes were growing; how the sun was shining; if it rained. I like to think about all the people who tended and picked the grapes. And if it's an old wine, how many of them must be dead by now. I like how wine continues to evolve, like if I opened a bottle of wine today it would taste different than if I'd opened it on any other day, because a bottle of wine is actually alive. And it's constantly evolving and gaining complexity. That is, until it peaks, like your '61. And then it begins its steady, inevitable decline.

If anyone orders Merlot, I'm leaving. I am NOT drinking any fucking Merlot!

Quaffable, but far from transcendent.

So, ok, that's one of my favorite movies.
