What's

Last Update: October 11, 2002

Some updates and revisions to recommended web sites. A couple new recipes for the vegetable loving set. A summary and contents page for our wine articles. There's probably a few new tasting notes, too.

A few new tasting notes, the general cleanup continues. Some California Syrahs that are worth checking out. (9/2/02)

Ho-hum. A change of URL (to The-Stupids.com), a change of host (to the Wine Lovers Page). No change of heart, though. We're adding yet more tasting notes, a few more recipes, and reorganizing some of the chaos. We hope that the changes will make it easier to navigate around and actually find some of our gems of wisdom. (8/03/02)
The latest in the Cull Party series. And a few new notes, a bit of cleaning up.
OK, like you needed any more Côte-Rôtie notes. Well, here's the Ogier Vertical from the wonderful MoCool event in Ann Arbor, MI. (9/02/01)
A few more tasting notes, Rhônes and Cabernets. Maybe a few more elsewhere. A great little spot to eat in Healdsburg. Watch for notes on a comprehensive Ogier vertical and the usual madness that follows my Ann Arbor visits. (8/20/01)
He's only 8-1/2 months old, but whatta palate! Jimmy's first note. (7/29/01)

We've had a change of web host which has not been without some trauma. So, that's delayed a few projects here, but at least JD got off his well-calloused ass and put some wine reviews up. Apparently, there's a shortage of cats stuck in trees. Oh, yeah, and our e-mail has been spotty, so if you haven't gotten replies, it's not because of our habitual rudeness. Hopefully, all this will stabilize soon... (6/27)

We're starting to put up more tasting notes- this will be done in bits'n'pieces over the next few weeks. Today's additions are mostly in the Imported Rhône reds. But there are a few others scattered elsewhere. We'll catch up faster if we can figure out a way to stop drinking the stuff for a few minutes. (5/16)

In case you didn't notice, the entire website has been redesigned. The topics are the same, they have just been re-organized. If you have a slower browser you might want to select "text only"; at least that's the advice in my nifty new 1994 edition of "Web Design for Morons." E-mail the webmaster if you have any problems or notice any broken links. I've been cleaning some things up and starting to add fresh tasting notes. (3/17)

Northern Rhône Reports Aplenty from 2000 and 2001. It's an overview and best-of for the '98 and '99 vintages, along with some wild-ass guesses about 2000 (2/17)

Some new restaurant review quickies and a couple more detailed writeups. The hottest new restaurant in the Rhône wine country? One of the best Bay Area restaurants is in Contra Costa County?!? And my pet service peeves. (2/17)

OK, it's not new. But it's still pretty funny. Check out the "3 Stooges Wine Rating System" a patent-pending creation of The Stupids- just think how you will impress your friends as you rate their latest wine acquisition a "Larry-Shemp!"
