like trying to herd cats

Still one of the best commercials from the Super Bowl.

Although not addressed by the court's action yesterday, I really wonder whether the "quantity shipped" issue should be looked at. (Granted, there's no one whose going to make it a priority). But I agree that the one bottle of wine per month in the District is a joke. And who enforces that? Who's liable for a violation? The buyer? The shipper? What if the buyer gets one bottle from 12 different vineyards? Not to mention the fact that if it's perfectly legal to go to a store and buy ten cases, why not have them shipped if shipping is permitted.

Who writes these laws??!!! And were they bombed when they wrote them?

yeah, I would think other "wine" states like VA, OR, WA, etc.. vote for it too.

Hmmm. I'm not sure about this. NY is a "wine state" however it is one of those that actively banned out of state shipments.

Does anyone know if there is truth to the rumors of the Safeway in the Crystal City underground being replaced by a Trader Joe's?

Has anyone tried the orange creamsicle flavored milk from the dairy guy?

It was interesting.......but nowhere near as good as their chocolate milk. I didn't buy any, but enjoyed the sample.

Josh Wesson, owner/founder of Best Cellars, was in town last month and I talked to him briefly. He says they're going to start expanding in northern Virginia. I asked specifically if Crystal City was in the mix on that new area on Crystal Drive where I think it would fit perfectly. He did not confirm nor deny.
