I've just entered the wine world, and sure as hell will never buy French or German wine.

Funny! Beau-heau-heau!

I like Missouri wines. Schoolhouse Red from St. James Winery is just a good all round dinner wine.

We also like the Aussie stuff.

"Overtime? What's that? 39 Hours?"

Good one! Overtime to them could simply be showing up for work.

You're probably right. A Frenchman working overtime? I doubt it.

"Your government caused these difficulties."

That was a response to Minister Bussereau. If he was forthright and truthful he would have assumed responsibility. Sorry for the confusion.

I didn't know that. We are mostly using rice vinegar these days. It is very good on salads.
