Good morning sunshine,
June is the perfect month for celebrations! Graduations, weddings/divorces, summer vacay...all great occasions for uncorking your favorite bottle of wine and celebrating. But we need more! Luckily, today is National Name Your Poison Day! And it couldn't come at a more appropriate time. With the nominations for president all but officially Locked up (no pun intended...well maybe a little one), it's time to choose your poison...red, white or sparkling, the one that will "Just make it all go away"! It might seem ironic to tout wine as poison since the word usually refers to something negative, so naming your poison suggests no matter the choice the ending will be bad. Well that might be true in presidential candidates or truth or dare, but it's not true with wine as long as you get it from me, ;) And since it was California that has seemingly finalized our choices, it's time to focus on what they've been drinking out in the land of Lebowski*. California has a grape for everyone, and since we are a nation founded on individual liberty put away the communist "White Russian", and choose whatever wine floats your boat dude. I mean, it's like, you know, the totally bitchin' thing to do, man! Don't be a Nihilist, name your poison, always keep your glass at least half full and celebrate the Triple Crown of good in this week that truly makes America Great like our soldiers at D-Day, Muhammad Ali, and Virginia's own Secretariat. Remember, no matter how you choose to vote..."Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man" - The Dude
*This wine inspiration presupposes a thorough understanding of The Big Lebowski!
Roll'em straight
