Sorry about that! And on that note......

{falls straight back and begins softly snoring on the spot}

Just kidding. I've always been a real light sleeper, gotta have some peace adn quiet (sounds as though I will be SOL at BM, huh), though I have been told I snore.

good night children! Have fun!

Duh... I missed that Z... I must be drunk... man that is some powerful wine.

No Tony I was talking about the toothpaste lip print on your cheek

LeChat, I don't know reds very well. But I know what I like in whites. I perfer foreign whites. American, californian whites tend to be really oaky and woody in flavor. Chardonnay is more dry, while Pinot Grigio leans to the sweet and fruity side of things. Generally I'm finding that I like mixes of things. I have this really nice Austrailian Chardonnay / Semillion 60/40 mix that tastes mighty nice.

Anyways, try this and tell me what you think.

Wine all around.

Yeah I got it now Z... thank you for your patience.

All I know Ms. Owl is that there are vines all over creation around here...

I just drink it, and if it tastes good I drink more of it. =)

tasty,, but I drink wine so seldom that, expensive bottle or cheep box after the first few there isn't a lot of difference to me either.

I blame smoking for my refined sense of taste,.. but really it not enough experience of quality.

blueniteowl · Post by **blueniteowl** » Sat Jan 22, 2005 9:29 pm

(drool) man what I wouldn't give for a smoke right now. I knew I should of bought more last weekend.

As for the wine. It took me awhile to figure out what I liked. My mom and aunts drink a lot of whites though so I was able to try a lot of different stuff and see.

Giggle I know you are lurking about... are you still here???

I need a favor.

On the topic of different wines (or different whatevers for that matter), it is interesting how, if you stop and listen to them, you can focus your senses quite a bit and pick out minute details of taste, smell, sight, sound and even touch.

blueniteowl · Post by **blueniteowl** » Sat Jan 22, 2005 9:33 pm

LeChat, it is interesting. And I must say the only reason I have a little of wine knowledge is because I'm not a beer drinker. I'm just not a huge fan of anything carbonated, bubbley, foammy. It just makes me feel bloated and full.

Dammit Tony I'm trying to go to bed. This had better be important.

blueniteowl · Post by **blueniteowl** » Sat Jan 22, 2005 9:35 pm

The human senses are amazing. It's just a shame that in our society today people get so busy that don't stop and concentrate on what they are feeling. To many people just hustle through life without really experiencing it.

gigglesnort · Post by **gigglesnort** » Sat Jan 22, 2005 9:39 pm

uh, Tony?

*shrug*

Okay, third time's a charm!

SO you are definitely tired?

In the book Undaunted Courage, (if I'm remembering correctly) it talks about Lewis and Clark (along with York... a very important and oft forgotten member of that expedition) being able to hear the roar of the Pacific some 50 miles inland. Now, to this day, that ocean is still making just as much noise, but just 50 miles from it and try to hear the waves. It's still there, but it's both drowned out by the subconscious drone of autos, planes and factories. We tune it out along with all the other white noise that pollutes our ears every day.

{kisses Tony softly right on hte lips!}

good night everybody.

Good night Giggles

LeChatNoir · Post by **LeChatNoir** » Sat Jan 22, 2005 9:52 pm

sleep tight, giggles

I must say that I think that it can be detrimental when we stop listening to nature, and become disconnected from it. It could just be that I'm a taurus and very down to earth. But nature, plants, dirt, they all energize me. You should see me in April. I tend to go a little nutty. I've quit many jobs in April.

Zulegoona · Post by **Zulegoona** » Sat Jan 22, 2005 9:55 pm

yeah good night again Giggles,... do you need a glass of water, or do you have to go potty,... ok crawl into that bed and snuggle down,... night night

LeChatNoir · Post by **LeChatNoir** » Sat Jan 22, 2005 9:58 pm

Amen... earth elements...earth tone natural fabrics...

Speaking of beverages my glass seems to be empty and so is Reba!'s Blue since your wearing your serving shows could you pour.

Nightie Giggles. xo

LeChatNoir · Post by **LeChatNoir** » Sat Jan 22, 2005 10:02 pm

wine is fine, fine, fine

Zulegoona... another glass?

and become disconnected from it

it is, in my humble opinion, the natural and proper state of the human to be in balance and harmony with nature. Hard to do these days.

blueniteowl · Post by **blueniteowl** » Sat Jan 22, 2005 10:02 pm

LeChat, I'm a taurus but my moon sign is pisces. So it can make things complicated. I'm in an eternal struggle for balance. Reality vs. Fantasy, practicality vs. dreams. It can make things really hard to get done.

Here, here. I am in complete agreement. I feel most at home in the dirt, garden, woods, river. Mother natures drug flows through my veins

Interesting you say this... I’ve found this to be the case for me for several years now. Never static of constant... always ebb and flow the best I can do. Don’t know much about moon signs, but I know I drew my first breath of air one Saturday afternoon in early May.
