OK - all on my own I bought a bottle called "the Little Penguin" South Eastern Australia Shiraz. I didn't have a clue which one to get but this one was only $9 AND it has a cute picture of a penguin on the bottle! Bonus. _________________ -Joy

He's one of those internet celebrities. All that aside.. his videos are entertaining and insightful. Perhaps he'll help us learn and be less intimidated by the unknown.
Feel free to add the profile to your network of friends.

I have a bottle of Yellow Tail (Australian wine with a Kangaroo) that I am working on. It is a staple in my house. It isn't my favorite Shiraz but it is good and pretty cheap. So I always have a few bottles on hand. A lot of times I start with a glass of something better and then my second or third glass is the yellow tail. They have 2 or 3 different types of Shiraz too. This bottle I have is Shiraz - Grenache.
I will write a full review later. Just stopping in for lunch. I hardly drink anything but Shiraz so this one will be a fun one!!
Whew, gotta clear my head from all this daydreaming of wine. I have to go back to work and learn to drive a plow truck.  _________________ http://www.etsy.com/shop/alaskandermish

Yeah well the guys that drive the fuel trucks to deliver heating fuel get to plow their driveways with our plow trucks. The girls that work in the office never get their driveways plowed by the company truck. I didn't think that was fair.
So I brought it up and asked if there was any reason why I couldn't drive it. It doesn't require a CDL and have driven the truck without the blade many times. They are going to show me how to run the blade and check me out on it so that I can use it for my driveway  _________________ http://www.etsy.com/shop/alaskandermish
