 25160. judithathome - 3/6/2009 2:49:23 AM Anomie, please email me...I think I have your email address but can't locate it on my list! 25166. magoseph - 3/6/2009 11:00:04 AM Welcome, Clay--you'll find your posts here Message # 25161 in thread 147. The Cafe's conversation about smoking is about tobacco, not marijuana. If you're a new poster, please introduce yourself to us.
25167. magoseph - 3/9/2009 1:00:45 AM Spring forward...Fall backward! This year, I have no clock handles to advance. 25168. alistairConnor - 3/9/2009 1:08:29 AM It's another three weeks before l'heure d'été in France. 25169. magoseph - 3/10/2009 9:50:04 AM Happy birthday, goodwinejoe! 25170. judithathome - 3/11/2009 8:09:20 PM And a very Happy Birthday to YOU, Magos! You may be a year older but like fine wine, just keep improving with age.
Is it still too cold out to have a night out on the town in celebration? 25171. magoseph - 3/12/2009 3:39:07 AM Thanks, Judith--yes, weather is vicious--we're getting the end of what's happening now in Minnesota. 25172. magoseph - 3/13/2009 6:11:03 PM Is the Mote Café going to stay open only until your story in Mote Fiction is finished, Ali? 25173. judithathome - 3/13/2009 6:37:29 PM Had to cancel my hair cut today...I am still weak as a cat from the food poisoning that hit me Sunday. 25174. alistairConnor - 3/13/2009 11:10:36 PM Well, what do you think Mago? Am I scaring away the trade?
I need to accelerate the pace. And finish the damn thing. Then they will come back... 25175. alistairConnor - 3/13/2009 11:12:24 PM Take care Judith... 25176. alistairConnor - 3/16/2009 4:17:21 AM Well! That'll surely bring them back...
... or drive them away... 25177. judithathome - 3/16/2009 4:31:15 AM Who, exacrly, is them?
Went out tonight for the first time this week...to an Italian restaurant. Excellent spaghetti with alio/aglio sauce and spinach/mushroom mix.
Alistair, we had a South African red...a Cabernet Sauvignon/Shiraz blend 2002...it was delicious. I made a joke about it's being an "apartied" wine. Not very funny to anyone but me but the label sounded very "Boer-ish". 25178. judithathome - 3/16/2009 4:32:34 AM "exactly"...too much of that excellent vino, evidently. 25179. magoseph - 3/16/2009 1:27:13 PM Well, what do you think Mago? Am I scaring away the trade?
Ali, that's not what I mean--I'm very afraid that you're about to close The Mote and you'll forget me. I can't have a chagrin d'amour just now--je me fais vielle, tu sais.
25180. alistairconnor - 3/16/2009 4:19:22 PM Ne t'en fais pas Mago! The site is not going away! It's being hosted from New Zealand, and I gave the host three dozen fine (organic French) wines in January, that'll pay the rent for a little while... We won't let you down. It just gets a bit slow sometimes... it's happened before, it'll happen again. 25181. magoseph - 3/20/2009 1:59:26 PM Ali, ask me anything. 25182. alistairconnor - 3/20/2009 3:37:05 PM I'm missing all that excellent wine I was drinking in NZ over the Christmas holidays...
The stuff I drink at home is often relatively rough and rustic, I don't have much of a budget for it.
My girlfriend bought some champagne the other day, we drank one, and she's put the other five in the fridge for storage... baaad idea I told her... we get bad when we drink... et on n'a pas les moyens de faire ça tous les jours!
I guess you're not drinking much wine these days Mago? What do you drink when you have the choice?
25183. magoseph - 3/20/2009 4:15:09 PM I drink Grand Marnier on ice in a Art Deco Lalique glass given by one of my most ardent admirers, Ali. If one of my loved ones sees me holding the drink, he’s gone instantly.
