Did it involve a samurai sword demonstration?

Haha, no. But it definitely should have!

A la Mitch Hedberg - if you see a bum eating grapes, be sure to remind him that he HAS TO WAIT.

At least it’s classy, Washington State wine. The winery is just down the road from where I live, though the grapes are grown in Eastern Washington.
It’s a great photograph.

@ t h rive - I’m not sure I get it… I never get those kind of things though, much to the chagrin of many of my friends. Is it that the grapes will turn into wine eventually?
@ Scot - It was actually taken a block away from the Madison Capitol, so of course it’s classy ; ) That’s so cool that the winery is just down the road from you… six degrees away from anything!

And in my head, I’m sure the story would have been an excellent one.

With a provocative story like this, Modite is fast becoming one of my favorite blogs!
Oddly, no commenter seems in the mood of actually sharing?

Another great photo. It was self-defense I’m sure.

@ Bill - but, of course ; )
@ Gene - thanks so much. I enjoy walking the line of provocativeness..
@ Milena - Haha. Makes sense to me.
