    wine...

    Here are some wines that my wife and I like to drink...(I'm not into Grigio)... French Beaujolais (Red) - 2003 was one of the best year's 'ever' for Beaujolais. And 2003 are plentiful in stores and are priced in a very good range $20- $30, anything that says 'Moulin a Vent' will be excellent. Cotes du Rhone (Red) - My personal very favorite wine is 'Cotes du Rhone, Les Cranilles, 2004'. This wine is made by the three gods of the Rhone 'Cuilleron, Gaillard and Villard'. For years these three friends got together and celebrated the harvest together, then one year they decided to make a wine together that celebrated their friendship. The best part is, this is a $25 wine! Alsace (Reisling White) - If you're ever looking for a good Riesling pick out anything from the Alsace region of France. They are all great wines. One great (and pricey) Riesling from Alsace is 'Damaine Weinbach 2003' - Although usually considered a desert wine, I find it goes great with poultry. I served this with Christmas Turkey this year. Australian Shiraz (Red) - Yalumba and Hugo are my favorite producers for $20-$30. If you want something a little higher end buy yourself a 'Glaetzer - Barossa Valley (2004),' this wine is the essence of what a very good Shiraz is all about. Grenache (Red)- Australian makes some of the best Grenache in the world. I had some Murray Street 2002 and Bethany 2002 which were wonderful for under $30. German (Reisling White) - Anything from the Mosel-Saar regions is usually delicious. Personal favorites are Fritz Haag and Willi Haag - every year is delicious. Cheers and enjoy.
  2. Hey Unclean, Playing tonight 1:21 am MT...and FF is off, its usually on so not sure if this is a recent change...less challenging imo.
  3. So what, you play a game of CS:S, your team gets blown out? It happens every once in a while, big deal...it's just a game. And it can be a great deal of fun coming back from a 9-0 deficit to win 10-9, those are the best challenges. Cheers, Klink
  4. You know the difference for me is the brightview panel. I can't describe it any better than to say this monitor has a brightness to it that none of the other monitors could match. I looked at a ton of them in a few stores and all I could think of was how much better the picture on this monitor was. Cheers, Klink
  5. Wholy crap, the guys in CS must be like 10 feet tall? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> ...and yet I still seem to miss
  6. Death by nade is the worst...the feeling of watching a grenade thrown at you and knowing your already dead.
  7. Linky to the monitor... http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetai...test%5Fcookie=1
  8. Speaking of online music, a very cool website to check out is www.pandora.com the website will introduce you to music based on bands you like...and it's free to listen to. Cheers, Klink
  9. Sadly true, Americans would rather watch bowling...and Canadians are the weird ones?
  10. I'm having the same problem, very weird...and my choke is back up, which I only just recently solved.
  11. I just bought a new 19' LCD HP monitor and it pwnz. It's an HP f1905b ((not the older f1905) with 'Plasma-like' BrightView Panel, Anti-Glare Screen, Dual inputs (Digital & Analog), 1280 by 1024 native resolution, 500:1 screen ratio, 12 MS response time, auto adjustment and comes with matching stand alone speakers and DVI CABLE! I'm not sure what "brightview panel" means but the brightness level on this monitor is astounding . Highly recommended. Cheers, Klink
