Happy 40th Joel!


Joel was so kind to turn 40 and let us tag along on his birthday bash wine tasting in Napa. We hit Miner ("The Oracle" wine is amazing!), Paraduxx (so-so wine, but beautiful space for tasting), and Patz & Hall (livingroom-esque tasting salon, and great pinot noir wine). The thirteen of us crammed into a van up and back to Napa - felt just like a teenage ski trip or something... singing, razzing, flatulating, dorito-ing. I hope my 40th birthday is as much fun!

Plant Trees + Stop Junk Mail = Green Dimes

I just found this web site to deal with my huge junk mail problem: GreenDimes. For a dime a day they get your name off direct mailing lists and keep it off, and plant a tree for you every month. So if you want to stop your mailbox from overflowing, and save some trees, take a look at GreenDimes. Note: I have noticed a HUGE reduction in the amount of junk mail I have been getting!
