Joe H Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 I see no humor in a photo of a kitten trapped in a glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shogun Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 It's an allegory on being 0wn3d. Being 0wn3d is not funny. Besides, you should see the one I WANTED to put up, but thought better of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jparrott Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 I thought the use of the Sparta Prague glass was particularly deep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe H Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 (edited) We have three cats who sleep in bed with us. This was a photograph that someone created by putting a kitten into a glass which trapped him. I view this as cruelty and find it disturbing.

RaisaB Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 The funny thing is, my first post was going to be that this was a belated APril Fools joke, but I didn't want to be insensitive. I have learned my lesson. My second thought was that Don was hard up for cash and was desperately selling some of his own stock! Mebbe for mortgage money???!!

vineguy Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 Hung by my own petard! Good one Don!!! I never realized how my own greed could blind me to an obvious dupe... I am in awe of your devious side and will get even with Dan Korn one day soon. Cheers, Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScotteeM Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 Mr. S and I were totally duped by this, and spent way to much time on it over the weekend. Best April Fools joke ever played on either one of us! I bow to the Master. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonRocks Posted April 1, 2023 Author Share Posted April 1, 2023 I just got this email, and this cellar is going to be first-come first-served, but I'll give everyone until Monday at noon to have an equal chance. No partial lots. I'm going to be off-line for awhile, so please reply on this thread rather than PM, and I'll check as time permits. I'd buy most of these myself if I wasn't short on cash.
