Happy Birthday GOC.Can I make a simple request? We never get to hear the results of the tasting. Would you post the results so us peons that don't have a discriminating taste bud in our mouth might be able to choose something that wouldn't make our spouses/dates barf. You can then be known as the GOC web sommelier. Public service and all that!

Oh, me! Oh, my! Oh, goodness! I almost missed the birthday party. I think it was Mark Twain who said he could live for two months on one good compliment. So, here's a gift for you, Denny...you're intelligent...you're handsome...you're funny and full of life. How's that? It's one of those gifts that just keeps on giving. That oughta do for at least the next (8) months. It's my wish that you enjoy many more birthdays...each happier than the last.

Just when you think the Dimocrats cannot sink any lower, that they cannot do anything more crass or show less class, they have to prove me wrong. Of course I'm referring to the Wellstone political rally memorial service. I hope all of you folks in Minnesota are proud of that spectacle.

Wow, what a little fucking punk you are! For a little cunt like you to talk about class is pretty fucking funny! WOW, you don't know thing one about what really happened, do you! We sure are proud of the great man that was paul wellstone. Write me when your head is removed from your arse! Whovian222@msn.com
