"I may not know wine, but I know what I like."
I said this once on a wine-connoisseur's blog, may he forgive me. And then I read a book and realized why this was a naive and faulty position.
Upon deciding that, I figured that I am what I am, and if I'm a naive, faulty wine-drinker, the least I can do is write about it and give the savvy people something to laugh about.
And I'll get some practice in writing. Someone wins.
My palate is carefully divided between 'what I like' and 'what I don't like', though I try to have reasons for disliking something. My nose is sometimes as sharp as a dull knife, sometimes as sharp as a teddy bear. I hope that gives you some idea as to what you may get here.
Most of all, I think I'm funny. I know I'm peculiar. And I really really know I'm amateur.
All I can say is, thanks for coming, and I hope this amuses.
