You talkin' to me?
Great post. Most appropriate actually for the Valentine day it was. 
Hee hee!! Old worn German sandals!
holy shit that was funny.
And mmm free samples
One of your best EVER!
Excellent!!
Darn it. You've got me hungry... AND you've got me into the philosophy of free food. I've been going around nearr my office in search for food. There are a lot of restaurants here. No samples, though. I don't give up easily. I went around asking in every shop around here until our lunch break was up.
The closest I got to free samples was when the bakery threw stale loaves at my head. I probably should have asked only once or twice, at best...
I've never really met a wine snob. But I know the taste and spit exercise you were talking about. They are probably trying to remain objective about the whole thing... making sure they don't get into a drunken stupor, thereby affecting their judgment of the other samples.
Of course this doesn't detract from the fact that they are full of crap and needs a solid power-kick to the crotch...
funny stuff calabrese - i have "wine friends" that fall into all those categories. i'm with you on the descriptions. "strong oaky base with an infusion of passion flowers and pear" - it just tastes red to me too.
