I don't like it. It's blended beyond all recognition (blended wines are no problem, but should still have some character) and it's just too sweet. I'd cook with it if given some. My $9 - $11 bottles are stuff like Copper Moon Merlot or whites like Yellow Tail or Copper Moon Chardonnay.

Kind of a creative way for Netflix to advertise an old show, but a new show to Netflix, Seinfeld is coming to Netflix, I have seen every episode like so many times, I have no interest in watching it, but I wonder if Netflix had to pay a pretty penny or 2 for the rights.

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
I was only like 10 when it first hit the air so I wasn't up that late and well 10 year old me probably wouldn't have liked it, as 10 year old me also hated MASH but now its one of my top TV shows along with a couple other 1970's era TV that I hated watching as a kid in the 80's.
Those in BC the top 3 in demand jobs apparently Nurse, Chef & Truck driver, all require varying levels of training, nursing probably the hardest, and chef I think really does require some level of natural talent and isn't something that can just be taught, those who hate cooking like myself, probably would not excel as a chef.
I would do trucking but eh BC wont let me, just like they wont let me be a security guard, but I could be a nurse if I had the academic ability.

Well that's the problem for me. I've always preferred dry but then it's completely undrinkable for the MIL and SD. They like Tisdale Sweet Red which is sickly sweet. It may well be that a full glass of Bodacious is a quantity that becomes too sweet, but that small glass was acceptable to all three who were sipping.

It has a pulley on both sides, it is raised to the ceiling when not in use. (It's for drying clothes).

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
I only asked because I've always known this just as a "pulley"... that's all they were ever called. We have one in our new (old) flat, and when a friend from London came up to visit this weekend he called it a "Sheila-Maid".
I thought that was quite bizarre - the rest of us all did - but it turns out Sheila-Maid is just a proprietary brand that he uses as a generic reference, like Hoover. I'd never ever heard it called that before, and there was one in most houses when I was growing up, it was always just a pulley.

They're also in the UK, but the advantage of the pulley one was that the drying clothes were lifted out of the way and left the floor area uncluttered.
