  • The focus is red wine and to get right to it without distraction, click The Wine Commonsewer Speaks. The rest of the enchilada is just enough of an eclectic mix of commentary on culture, food, tax, and econ 101 to distract from the focus on red wine.

    We appreciate your patronage.

Drink Your Gin & Tonica, and Smoke Your Marijuanaca .....

Good Morning Gentle Readers,

Back in the days of my pre-vagrant yoot, I was crazy for this cute little Jewish girl, except I didn't know she was Jewish or even what that meant. After Christmas Vacation, er, ah, I mean Winter Break that year, I asked her about her Christmas gifts. A puzzled look crossed her face and she simply said that she didn't do Christmas, which confused more than enlightened. Kids don't always understand mad crushes or the subtle distinctions that delineate things in the real world.

I suppose that my parents meant well as they explained that Jan lit the Menorah and well, what if you grow up, fall in love, and have kids? What ever will you do? On the the bright side, they were relieved she wasn't Catholic. 

Decades later, in a bit of irony, my cousin (Mr Macintosh) married a lovely Jewish girl, had kids, and they worked it out. Pretty sure they light the Menorah and the Christmas tree. 

That said, for some inexplicable reason, this video brings my dear Mrs TWC a disproportionate amount of enjoyment. White Christmas? Meh. Run, Run, Reindeer? Just OK. Adam Sandler? Whole 'nother thing. Might be her favorite Christmas song. Don't give up before you get through the intro. 

Can't see it? Look here.

As Ever,

TWC

Yes, this is a lazy rerun of a post that appeared last Christmas. That's OK though, it's a great tune.
