As weeks go, this one for me was pretty good. Disregard the fact that I punctured my right index finger with a shard of broken glass and can barely type while said finger throbs like a S.O.B. All and all I’m pretty happy. Much of this happiness is due to

It’s finally summer and no one more than yours truly is damn happy about it. For all of us wine drinkers, the natural inclination is to reach for a glass of crisp, clean white wine. However, if you are hell-bent on grabbin’ for red, do as the Aussie’s do, and

The Dirty Dish is really dirty today. Pieces of some sort of organic matter are clinging to the sides. I suppose it’s time for a good wash, but we should first examine what’s been messing up The Dish. It would appear that we have a generous array-o-crap that has been

Yikes. Today is the first REALLY sunny day in quite a while, and I am forced to sit inside the house, sniffling and coughing up Lord knows what as I write. Yes, this is my first cold of the season, and it sucks. When you are feeling like crap, the

As I have mentioned in prior columns, the powers that be are allowing me to spread my journalistic wings these days and write more about my love affair with wine. What better place than The Weekly Volcano, a cutting edge, alternative newsweekly, to breath some fresh air into the world

“Blue skies, smilin’ at meeee, nothin’ but blue skies, do I see.” Ah, this past holiday weekend was fabulous, and I have the hangover to prove it. What can be better than spending time at the lake house? The weather was reasonably good, the fishing was phenomenal, and the food
