While I applaud your taste in pinot, couldn't you do better than Salty's? Or is that just part of the "hot nuts" theme?

More HELP! requested
I need to sue somebody. It's for enough money that it's worth my while to sue them to get it back, but not enough to hire some fancy shmantzy law firm (which would in all likelihood ask me for a retainer in excess of the amount I'm looking to recover).
So, anyhoo, I need some help with forms, etc.
Where can I get one? PM me for details - and I'll tell you the whole sordid tale.

I hear semen is very high in lactose. Perhaps you should cut back.

Ha. Salty's is close to the airport. And the one on Redondo is fab.

What a happy coincidence.
Shoot me a PM and I'll tell you how to sign up. He's got a new novel out next month, so things are hopping.

Well, I can't improve on what Fringey said, but after the 3rd glass, it didn't really matter, but it was a chardonnay - in a bottle.

You were flying to California. Good point. Plenty of oak, I'm sure. NTTAWWT.

New oak, neutral oak, or stainless steel?

I like neither my beer nor my wine beechwood aged.

No. I really can't drink much of anything during races except water. I occasionally have a cup of gatorade, but it's still too thick (especially the "endurance" formula). The thought of Gu makes me want to puke. I can sometimes handle a Shot Blok or three. Any recommendations for lighter drinks with adequate replenishing characteristics?

At the risk of losing my good standing in the great state of California, we don't drink a whole lot of chardonnay in my house, and when we do we avoid the oak.

My wife is training for a marathon right now, and has been eating (drinking?) those gel things during her long runs. Perhaps as a result, she usually has an upset stomach for the rest of the day. Thoughts? Suggestions?

If I were French, I would slap you.
I may still, just on principle.

Stainless steel aging in First Class? As if.
