Pour One Out
Continuing my half-day Friday tradition of stealing someone's Wall Street Journal (since they are out of the office)...
I was introduced to Wine Library TV host Gary Vaynerchuk, whose "folksy" video reviews have helped the shop grow to become "one of the highest-grossing independently owned wine and liquor retailers in the nation, with about $40 million in annual revenue."
In Episode #76, he used phrases like "smells horrible," "sweaty feet," "unattractive," "locker room jock strap stinky" to describe the 2004 Falesco Vitiano - and then linked to the page where they sell it for $7.99.
Sadly, I also learned that Maynard Ferguson died on Wednesday. I'm definitely gonna listen to "Live from San Francisco" on the plane in his honor - off to the airport!
