And tonight's special feature... all chatters will receive complimentary Gruet Brut for Howie's birthday toast! (OK, his birthday is really tomorrow, but why lose an excuse to celebrate? )

Pull up a chair and pour a glass of something good. We'd love to have you party with us!

Who's buying? David L.? I'm there! Maybe we could coax Gary B. out of retirement?

Cool! I almost forgot about the birthday. Well, they say 3 things happen to you when you get old. The first thing is your memory starts to go. I forget what the other two are. Also - last chat before NiagaraCOOL.

Happy birthday HH. Hope the bubbles are worthy. Sorry, I'll have to miss Chat today. Have a great time at Niagara Cool.

I picked up my yearly ESJ purchase today, so I'm thinking a rose for chat.

Hey! That's what I'm having. I opened it last night with dinner. Clearly it needs finishing.

Many happy returns Howie! A good guy who, literally, goes out of his way to visit members of the Winelovers group and bring us together. No longer being such a young'un however, I'll be in bed well before tonight's chat.

A fine celebration underway. Please join us!

Sorry I missed it -- too much happening here. Happy Birthday anyway, Howie, you young whippersnapper!

Hey, Mark!

Howie is still here! Pop in!

Sorry I couldn't make it today folks, very busy at work .....

Howie, you are one of nature's gentlemen and I wish you many happy returns .....

and ....

I hope NiagaraCool goes off with a bang! (and to the attendee's who know us both - lend Howie a helping hand if at all possible, please)

Good luck and best wishes from your old mate downunder,

[James Roscoe]

David,
Since you weren't there we felt free to talk about you behind your back. You should have heard the things Cynthia said about you! Julia and I defended your honor though.

James, you are an absolute shocker ...... but thanks ever so much for trying to stick up for me against the black princess of evil

It was a fun Chat session and thanks to everyone for the good wishes. Cynthia & Julia kept me up past 2AM as I consumed the last bottle of my '05 Gamay.

Happy Birthday, Howie.

Davey, Davey, Davey. I read that.

Cynthia and Howie kept me up past 2:00 a.m...it was slow going this morning!
I'm resting up the next 364 days for next year's party, Howie!

You guys and your revisionist history. It was just slightly past midnight. (But it was a whole lot of fun!)

Davey, Davey, Davey. I read that.

Dearest Princess Cynthia,

Please forgive me for I have sinned,

You may taketh from my hide whatever you deem necessary for such treachery next Monday morning,

Your obedient servant,

(damn that Jimmy!)
