If you put a good wine into a box I'm sure it would be fine. But that white zin crap is just wrong. :tothehand:
No wine is worth it's metal unless it has a finger hook thingy for taking slugs straight from the bottle with reversed cupped wrist. :tothehand:

It could be the only thing that kids are learning in school today. Maybe they should apply the same learning techniques they use there to other subjects. I mean have you heard how kids speak to one another when they are alone. It's **** this and **** that and ************ this and *** **** that. If they could only do math as well. :shock:

It's like using corks for wine, we only do it because it's tradition. The new way is better but people fight it because they are dumb.
:nod:

A lot of time is spent learning something that isn't necessary for everyday life.
These signatures have a 500 character limit?

What if I have more personalities than that?

90 points. :coffee: Wine ratings are a complete joke.

Black box has some OK wines...something you could drink with pizza or an everyday meal. Decent values. But none of their wines should be considered "very good". :ohno:

Bota seems to be a step behind Black box on most of their wines.

For boxed wines, they are pretty good. My favorite wine right now is from Silver Coast, a vineyard in North Carolina. It's a Malbec, corked bottle and everybit of delicious

It's not just the cork. Wine is unnecessary, period. Back in the ancient days, people weren't all that good at making alcohol. They had to ferment stuff like grapes and get what they could get. But NOWADAYS we can provide GRAIN ALCOHOL that is 95% composed of what we're REALLY AFTER for a very REASONABLE price.

No reason at all to buy wine anymore. I mean, c'mon. Does it really taste good? Of course not. If you want something that tastes good drink a Coke. If you want something that gets you off mix a little grain alcohol with something that tastes good.

BULLSHIT.

I like beer. If I could find a beer that was N/A that didn't taste like the Anacostia River I would buy all they could make.

Oh, and to the guy who gayed up this thread with the wine talk, :tothehand: This is about cursive and why it should/shouldn't be taught in schools.
