The Alphabet City Beer Co. (ABC Beer, familiarly) is both a craft beer store with over 350 varieties ready to go and a bar offering 12 beers on tap that are constantly rotating to satiate the highly developed taste buds of the patrons. A craft meat and cheese counter helps to mitigate the effects of making too merry, not to mention a three-cheese grilled cheese, herbed ham and pecorino sandwich on sourdough bread, and the "brown bag lunch special."
ABC Beer Co. is located in the East Village neighborhood of Manhattan. Long before the musical "Rent" brought in legions of pierced, tattooed teenagers from every corner of America (and drove up the rents), the East Village was an eclectic mix of elderly Ukranians and Poles, Dominican and Puerto Rican families, and assorted artists, wanna-be bohemians, punks, their followers, lovers and friends. (Did we leave anyone out?) Largely gone are the heroin dealers, all night parties, punk music extravaganzas and infamous Bagel Tree of the 1980s and early 1990s, but the real landmarks remain, including the Joseph Papp Public Theater, Tompkins Square Park, and Cooper Union. The Public offers some of New York's finest Off-Broadway Theater as well as Joe's Pub, with a diverse variety of live shows. Beautiful Tompkins Square Park offers something for everyone, including dog runs, basketball courts, a weekly market, outdoor music events, and occasionally local characters chatting late into the night to infrequent riots. To be fair, few other parks in America have played such an important role in radical or anarchist history. Many long-time residents complain of the neighborhood's recent gentrification, and skyrocketing rents forced even legendary punk club CBGB's to exit the neighborhood, replaced by a John Varvatos boutique. And while there are truly many new restaurants and boutiques dotting Avenues A, B and C, lots of the famous watering holes, dives, and other unclassifiably scrappy bars remain. Some of our favorites include Mars on lower First Avenue, Zum Schneider on Avenue C, 2A on the corner of Second Street and Avenue A, and Lit Lounge, with its adjoining Fuse Gallery. Make sure to check out the Polish butcher stores on First Avenue and the nearby Italian pastry shops, walk along the Ukranian strip of Second Avenue, try one of the Japanese restaurants on East Ninth Street, and also walk along St. Marks Place, one of New York's most eclectic streets. East 4th Street's Theater Row boasts cultural buildings which house eight theaters and twelve dance companies as well as a couple of community development groups. Among its members are New York Theater Workshop, La MaMa Experimental Theatre, Rod Rodgers Dance Co., WOW Cafe Theatre, Millennium Film Workshop, Duo Multicultural Arts Center, Teatro Circulo, Downtown Art, Alpha Omega Dance Co., Choices Theater, Teatro IATI, Cooper Square Committee and Cooper Square Mutual Housing Association. The Nuyorican Poets Café is still going strong on East Third Street between Avenues B and C. Since 1973 its mission has been to create a multi-cultural venue that provides a stage for artists traditionally underrepresented in the mainstream media and culture. Poetry slams, theater performances, open jam sessions for hip-hop, poetry and jazz, as well as unique screenplay readings all take place on a weekly basis in this intimate cultural setting. For film buffs, we would be remiss not to mention the Anthology Film Archives on East 2nd Street, a local theater best known for consistently showing the finest in avant-garde and experimental cinema. We also recommend the Landmark Sunshine Cinema on East Houston Street, home away from home for those who enjoy great acoustics and the company of die hard independent film fans. The East Village is also home to the trendy Cooper Square Hotel as well as the charming Gem Hotel, making it a great neighborhood to enjoy your stay in New York.

How it was distributed: The sets were sold at sporting events and on campus.
Result or ROI: The sets enabled the school to raise enough money for the trip, and they plan to sell them again next year for the next camping trip.

The is urging patients with newly diagnosed diabetes and back pain not to opt for the latest-and-supposedly-greatest.
It's part of a new campaign to steer patients (and their doctors) to what the College of Physicians calls " high value care," and away from expensive tests and treatments that aren't any better — and often are worse.
That may seem like common sense. But it's a departure, and maybe a surprise, to hear a mainline physician group name names when it comes to drugs that shouldn't be first choices — and even steer patients to non-physician competitors.
Instead of highly touted diabetes brands such as Actos, Januvia and Avandia, the physicians' group says, patients with type 2 diabetes should start out on a tried-and-true generic.
"The best first choice usually isn't one of the newer, heavily advertised" drugs, says a new brochure put out by the College in cooperation with Consumer Reports magazine. "It's metformin, a drug that has been around for nearly two decades."
"A month's supply of generic metformin typically costs only about $14 compared with about $230 to $370 for Actos and about $265 for Januvia," the brochure points out.
Metformin "lowers blood sugar levels more than newer drugs do," the brochure says. It also reduces "bad cholesterol," while newer drugs don't, and sometimes even raise it.
When it comes to back pain, it's usually not a good idea to get an x-ray, CT scan or MRI, says another new pamphlet that carries the College of Physicians brand.
"If you don't feel better after four weeks or so, it might be worth talking to your doctor about other options," back pain sufferers are advised. Maybe they should see a chiropractor or an acupuncturist, the brochure says.
Steven Weinberger, CEO of the American College of Physicians, says many patients come into doctors' offices with the expectation they're going to get a high-tech imaging study to diagnose their back pain.
"Their neighbor might say, 'When I had back pain I had an MRI, so maybe you didn't get the best care,' " Weinberger told Shots. "We're saying the reflex reaction doesn't represent the best care."
The group plans to put out a series of other pull-no-punches pieces of advice on common conditions.
"In these days of crisis in health care costs," he says, "the medical profession should take its ethical and professional responsibility to do what we can to reduce costs while not compromising care."
Weinberger says that doing the right thing make take courage, "because physicians have financial incentives" to prescribe less cost-effective care, and so do hospitals. So, of course, do pharmaceutical companies.
But Sethu Reddy, the U.S. medical director of Merck, maker of the diabetes drug Januvia, idn't sound too threatened.
"Cost is one factor," Reddy told Shots. "But there are four or five other factors that the doctor has to weigh in. He can't just automatically say that this is the automatic option for every new patient."
Reddy pointed out that, on the very day the physicians' group urged newly diagnosed type 2 diabetics who need drugs to start with metformin, US and European diabetes specialists issued new guidelinesthat are less prescriptive.
"More than any other previously reported guidelines," notes diabetes expert William Cefalu, the new position statement "emphasizes that one size clearly does not fit all."

What If I Wait A Year to Buy a Home?
National home prices have increased by 5.4% since this time last year. Over that same time period, interest rates have remained near historic lows which has allowed many buyers to enter the market and lock in low rates.
As a seller, you will likely be most concerned about 'short-term price' – where home values are headed over the next six months. As a buyer, however, you must not be concerned about price but instead about the 'long-term cost' of the home.
The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA), Freddie Mac, and Fannie Mae all project that mortgage interest rates will increase by this time next year. According to CoreLogic's most recent Home Price Insights Report, home prices will appreciate by 4.8% over the next 12 months.
What Does This Mean as a Buyer?
If home prices appreciate by 4.8% over the next twelve months as predicted by CoreLogic, here is a simple demonstration of the impact that an increase in interest rate would have on the mortgage payment of a home selling for approximately $250,000 today:
Bottom Line
If buying a home is in your plan for this year, doing it sooner rather than later could save you thousands of dollars over the terms of your loan.

Mayo Clinic Researchers Identify Biomarker for Smoker's Lung Cancer
Mayo Clinic researchers have shown that a specific protein pair may be a successful biomarker for identifying smoking-related lung cancers. The protein is called ASCL1. ASCL1 is known to control neuroendocrine cell development and was previously linked to regulation of thyroid and small cell lung cancer development, but not smoking-related lung cancer. The findings appear today in the online issue of the journal Oncogene.
"This is exciting because we've found what we believe to be a 'drugable target' here," says senior author George Vasmatzis, Ph.D., a Mayo Clinic molecular medicine researcher and senior author on the study. "It's a clear biomarker for aggressive adenocarcinomas, these are the fast-growing cancer cells found in smokers' lungs."

Three Hundred
According to the stats on my Google Blogger dashboard, this is my 300th post for HoseMaster of Wine™. A few of them were reruns--"Best of HoseMaster," an oxymoron if there ever was one. But I also wrote more than fifty posts on the original incarnation of the blog, now expunged from the Intergnats, so 300 is a fair number. And a big number. It's my excuse for a bit of self-indulgence. Consider yourself warned. This will be dull.
I have some regrets about my work here. I wish I had taken it more seriously. So many of my pieces were written in haphazard fashion, and are painfully sloppy to me in retrospect. When I go back through my Archives (a fancy word for what amounts to a compost heap), I am usually embarrassed. There are pieces I'm proud of, but, for the most part, my work has been driven by the need to just get it done, get something posted, keep up with my gluttonous blog. My excuse was that I was writing for free. The truth is, I was lazy.
Writing satirically about wine, and the wine business, combines the two things I have loved most in my life—comedy writing and wine. I began writing jokes around the age of 10. Once a week, at Lowell Elementary School, children in the fifth grade spent an hour at "religious studies." Amazing, right? The Catholic kids went to one classroom, the Jewish kid (yup, one kid) was in another, the Christian kids yet another. I wasn't of any denomination, had never attended a place of worship of any kind, unless you count Dodger Stadium. So I was allowed a free hour to do whatever I wanted in the classroom, as long as it was quiet and harmless. I wrote. I wrote jokes, and I wrote science fiction stories featuring the amazing Dr. Cucumber. Yes, Freud would have had a field day with Dr. Cucumber. Thanks to not believing in any God, I became funny.
Writing is serious business to me. I think about it often, and I care about it deeply. I write, at some level, because reading takes us out of time. When you read, as you are reading these words, time recedes to the background, and, for those hours or minutes you are reading, you step outside of time and live in your memory, all by yourself, in places where time no longer matters. Nothing else does this. When I write for HoseMaster, I write to take folks away from their lives for a few minutes to laugh. I know what it's like for you. You read my crapola with a growing anticipation of when your laughs will come—sometimes, they never do. You aren't thinking about your marriage or your job or your toothache, you're hoping a laugh will come by soon. And even if I don't make you laugh, even if I make you angry, or squeamish, or disgusted, you've stepped out of time for those moments and, I hope, become yourself for a bit. You choose what you laugh at here—my cruelty, my silliness, my absurdity—but you choose to come here, of all the places you might choose, to escape time for a few minutes, and I'm deeply flattered.
I don't get writer's block. There's no such thing. It's as imaginary as Gold Medals and perfect 100 point wines. My father worked in factories his entire life, and he never once had "assembly line block." Writing is work. Avoiding it is easy, and has its pleasures. I can go on writing HoseMaster until I reach 10,000 posts, though I won't. And I won't ever have writer's block. There are ideas around us all the time, right there, right in front of our eyes and noses. We have only to give them voice to give them life. I don't believe anyone walks away from their blog because they're out of ideas. They walk away because it doesn't seem worth it, or because they have no audience. In many ways, it's not worth it. I want to walk away at least once a week. But then I'll write a joke that seems lovely, even perfect, and I want to feel that feeling again. Where the joke comes from, I don't have even the slightest idea. The best ones seem to arrive on imaginary stone tablets, handed down from a comedy God. I simply proclaim them. And when those jokes are delivered to me, it's a unique experience. It's rare, it's always unexpected, and it's addictive. So I keep writing. Writing has always been worth it to me.
Writing comedy and satire comes from a place of anger and self-loathing. When I was much younger, this caused me no end of pain. I'd write comedy for ten hours, and be filled with sadness and rage for no readily apparent reason. With age, I've learned how to channel all of that, use it, control it, and not suffer from it as much. Yet I often worry about how my words might affect the people I lampoon. Satire requires fearlessness, but that doesn't rule out insecurity or worry. I try never to pull punches, but I also try never to throw sucker punches. I believe that my targets have earned my weapons, though I'm too often guilty of using a grenade launcher when an arrow would have been adequate. The worst sorts of people in life, and I'm referring to the Rick Perrys and Sarah Palins and Ann Coulters of the world, are still human (the wine biz doesn't really have the equivalent of those sorts of cretins). Like everyone, they deserve forgiveness, yet they also invite scorn. It's my lot in life to deliver scorn. I leave forgiveness to people better than I.
Wine has always been seen as a gentleman's sport. Like any sport, it's often filled with scoundrels, liars, posers, hypocrites and charlatans. Only in the wine business, one is not supposed to point all of that out, at least not in public. I'm not a crusader, not by any means. I'm merely the Fool. But I try to choose how I approach my subjects carefully, try to go after the scoundrels, liars, posers, hypocrites and charlatans with the sharpest razor, while gently prodding those others I make fun of who just don't know any better. I think the responses I get to my pieces tell an interesting story of how accurately I accomplish this. When I seem to have hit a jugular vein, the reaction is usually a kind of collective cringing. When I miss, perhaps cross some sort of line, the reaction is often a stunned silence. I learn from those reactions. Satire only works when the tone is right, gentle on one occasion, ferocious on another. Get the occasions confused, and it falls flat. I've fallen flat too often for my own liking. Yet more regret.
I have no illusions about my reach. My audience has grown over the past couple of years, but it's still meager. Nothing about wine or wine reviewing or wine writing will change because the HoseMaster was here. There are inmates on death row with more fans. I don't write HoseMaster to become famous in the wine business—that's a fool's errand, one being pursued by no end of nitwits who comment on STEVE! to boost their recognition. I don't write it to get free wine, which is lucky because I'm pretty much a failure at that (though I have been gifted by regular readers who make wine, and it's a lovely gesture to exchange my creative abilities with theirs). I don't write it for money, though Tim Atkin is kind enough to pay me a bit for my pieces on his blog. I think I write it to see what I'll say next. Or, more accurately, to see what the HoseMaster will say next.
Most of you will agree, I'm certain, that there is so little worth reading on wine blogs. The vast majority of the ones I've looked at are dismal—tired, talentless and trite. A collection of journeys meaningless for their collective banality. When I began HoseMaster of Wine™, three hundred pieces ago, I spent a lot of my time making fun of wine bloggers. I have no idea why. It's the wine business, the marketing people, the professional wine writers, and the celebrity sommeliers that deserve more scorn. And so my focus has gradually shifted in their direction. Not that it matters. Yet no matter how cruel or insulting or demeaning my pieces can be, I have great fondness and love for the wine business, far more than almost anyone I know. My only talent of any kind, superficial as it might be, is writing jokes, satire, comedy, meretricious pantagruel… For me, every one of my pieces is a love letter to wine.
300 down, who knows how many more to go. I wonder, all the time, how much longer I can channel the HoseMaster. I wish people understood that the HoseMaster is not me, and I am not the HoseMaster. But wishes are the dreams of the hopeless. Meanwhile, thank you for allowing the HoseMaster into your heads twice a week. I don't hear from very many of you who regularly read this blog, but I know you're out there. I have no idea why, but you're out there. I guess, just like me, you're wondering what the HoseMaster will say next.

Ron My Love,
This was a gorgeously textured and honest glance into the heart that I've been lucky enough to be granted regular access to. I confess to feeling both proud and protective, but mostly I sit here in awe of your natural gifts. You are a constant source of wonder, bent-over-sore-tummy laughter and absolute joy. I am profoundly lucky each day that I get to wake up knowing I have a special place in that big heart of yours. This was so beautiful Love and a very happy 300th to You.
I love you. - August 1, 2013 at 8:43 AM

Question: Did Eric read it twice and come to the same conclusion or was he really so asleep that he pushed the send button twice?
I have been writing about wine for almost four decades now. Occasionally I will try my hand at comedy because there are moments in life that require a laugh.
I like writing, although truth be known, I did not much like it at any point in my schooling, and I cannot write the great detective/spy novel. If I could have been one writer, I think I would have been Lecarre at this best.
But comedy is easy. It is right there in our tummies, our brains. We like to laugh unless we are horrible curmudgeons or sommeliers.
In fact, comedy is so easy that almost anyone who writes tries it at some point. And we realize then that laughing is easy. But writing great comedy is not.
Those of us who hang out here know how lucky we are. We love wine and we love comedy. But rarely have the twain met successfully.
They do here, and I, for one, am profoundly glad and feel incredibly lucky to be able to suspend time with you twice a week.
Thank you. And get on with it, please. Three hundred is just a down payment on the ten thousand. - August 1, 2013 at 9:19 AM

My Gorgeous Samantha,
300, for no apparent reason, seemed like some sort of milestone. That's a lot of comedy, mixed in with this kind of self-indulgent twaddle. But I think I wanted, more than anything, to thank those folks who read HoseMaster regularly and have allowed me to have an audience for my foolishness. It's been an amazing blessing.
And you, MB, are the blessing I am most grateful for.
I love you, too!
Yeah, I'm with ya. But I didn't even bother to finish reading it. Too fucking dull.
First off, it was I who deleted EVO's stammer, not EVO. One photo of that guy in the comments section is plenty!
Secondly, those are mighty kind words, especially considering the stature of the source.
The gift of comedy is a strange one. I'd gladly trade it for playing the piano, or dancing like Fred Astaire. Or both at the same time. But this crazy blog has given me the chance to share my tiny little gift and get nearly immediate feedback. That still amazes me. And it has given me the opportunity to meet people like you, wine writers I never would have met without this wacky place. And that amazes me. Plus, I won awards! Look at me, I'm a winner!
I wonder how much I have left in the tank. I can write jokes until I'm 100, but do I have the will to keep working this sparsely populated room? I hope so. I'd miss Lo Hai Qu. And good old Larry Anosmia. And my true love Avril Cadavril. And Blinky and Alderpated and 1WineDoody and STEVE! So I'll hang in there. For them.
And for all the kind folks like you who hang out in the HoseMaster Peanut Gallery. Thank you. - August 1, 2013 at 9:43 AM

Ron, do not ever stop writing. As I have said ad nauseum (?), you are the voice of reason in a sea of wine- reviewing BS artists (myself included).
When I am down, I read your pieces and get a much needed laugh. I still think you should aggregate your work and put out a book, which would be a lot more fun than the same old, same old baloney from most wine writers.
Keep doing what you do so well--write a funny! - August 1, 2013 at 9:46 AM
- Ron Washam, HMW said...
Marlene Darling,
You're a relative newcomer here, but I'm very grateful for your presence. And thank you for the kind words.
Every time I write a piece like this, which is really just a Reflection of where I am at a given point in my life and in the life of this stupid blog, it starts to sound like I'm begging for praise. I'm not, but thank you.
I've said it endlessly, if this is, as Tom Wark says, the Golden Age of Wine Writing, just shoot me. Most of the wine writing I see, and perhaps I'm looking in all the wrong places, is like those poetry refrigerator magnets--the same words rearranged over and over as though that's original or interesting thought.
Ah, well, I'll keep plugging away for a while. As long as you love me, Marlene. That's always nice. - August 1, 2013 at 10:14 AM

I have only just tuned in to HoseMaster and love your work. Parody seems easy but can only be done properly by someone who writes well, has genuine knowledge and experience on the subject matter and is actually insightful. It would be a bloody shame if you stopped writing. Our industry is to serious and needs the levity.

I can play piano and I can dance like--er--well not like him, but like another guy whose name you might know. And you know what? I can't write comedy.
I can be sarcastic; I can be quick witted; I can turn a pun; I can do other things, but I can't write comedy.
Plus, I've never suffered from writer's block, but I am intimate with procrastination, like right now.
If you ever really want to trade places, you teach me comedy and I'll buy you one of those Arthur Murray dancing lesson kits with the feet in positions. That's the other Fred Astaire. - August 1, 2013 at 11:16 AM

Thoughts on your treatise on writing and why you do it.. I got a novel in the drawer, and no it's not on wine.. unsubscribed to James Conoway's blog after getting umpteen plugs for his damn novel Nose, did anyone else get those???.. Jeesssus.. I once wrote a humorous column aimed directly at those assholes who go around wrecking parties with their acoustic guitars and pushing their dreadful songs and musical ability or complete lack thereof...
No pity parties for stepping up to write as one of my favorite authors, comic or otherwise, Mordecai Richler said, "we're all volunteers, no gun at our backs to write."
No Canuck flag waving here, sorry Ron, I loathe Margaret Atwood novels..
As for ideas coming from God or the ether.. Keith Richards, another hero of mine, said similar things in his book, the devastating Gimme Shelter came to him as a huge black rain cloud rolled in... but alas, his muse seems to have left him, but God bless him he keeps trying, and his booze soaked fingers keep going.. just as long as the guitar plays.. let it steal your heart away...
Hope you keep trying and hey, maybe 10,000 will come up on you soon enuff..

Charlie took all the good words here...
Thomas...is not the only one with an intimate relationship with procrastination! (Such a slut, Procrastination! Many of us know her better than we wish.)
I'm looking forward to the next 300 posts, as always.
And BTW, Fred Astaire not only danced up and down the walls quite well, but he was a fabulous pianist AND played a mean set of drums. Bitch! - August 1, 2013 at 1:55 PM
- Ron Washam, HMW said...
Thank you. Our industry does need more levity, especially levity that isn't silly or self-serving, but, I hope, thought-provoking. That said, it would be an ugly world that had eight or ten HoseMasters in it.
Shelley Berman used to be a semi-regular customer at my old restaurant. Berman taught a comedy writing course at, I think, USC. I asked him once, how was it possible to teach comedy writing. "I can teach it," he told me, "but that doesn't mean anyone can learn it."
In a weird way, though I was a sommelier at the time, I wish I'd taken that class. If only to hear him endlessly kvetch about how underappreciated he always was. And, of course, maybe I'd have learned to write comedy.
Funny, James Conaway's name came up last night when I was having drinks with a friend. He works that "Nose" thing pretty hard. No, thanks, James, I'll pick my own.
Atwood isn't my favorite Canadian writer. That would have to be either Alice Munro, or Alex Trebek.
Why don't you start a wine blog, David? You seem like an entertaining guy. You should volunteer. I'd like to read other people's jokes about wine now and then.
And thank you for reading, and being a common tater. - August 1, 2013 at 1:56 PM

Sir Hose,
I readily admit I can't write as some of your other posters, but I can bring laughter to the dinner table on occasion. You bring smiles to me and your 'flock' twice weekly and is always appreciated. I hope I live long enough to read your 10'000th with the giggles you present. Keep on keeping on!!

"Craft" is a big word. It's more hobby than craft. But the longer I write HoseMaster, the more interesting it becomes for me. After a 30 year absence from writing satire, this time around has been incredibly rewarding. Thanks for hanging around, Gabe. And, to be honest, most of the time the HoseMaster is far more likeable than I.
Marcia Love,
Yeah, that Astaire guy could also sing pretty well too. And he married a jockey! Always wanted to have sex with a jockey, but only if she was wearing my silks and going hard to the whip.
Thanks, Marcia, for being such a loyal member of the HoseMaster Peanut Gallery and for being such a lovely common tater. - August 1, 2013 at 2:02 PM

Hi Ron,
I enjoy a contemplative soul and psyche baring column from you as much as I enjoy an exuberantly written piece of satire from the Hosemaster.
Your skill, talent, for writing is on display with either one, your range of voice is evident with both to enjoy.
Thanks. - August 1, 2013 at 2:36 PM
- Ron Washam, HMW said...
Hi John,
I assume you're the John Gonzalez married to the beautiful Mary, one of my alltime favorite wine reps. Thank you. And thanks for reading. And give my love to Mary whether you're married to her or not.
Hey Peter,
You bring up an interesting point. Most of my regular Russets and Yukon Golds are better writers than I. I'm the idea guy around here, and vastly underqualified.
Thanks for chiming in, Peter. Nice to hear from you. Making people laugh, or cringe, or angry, is what I try to do here. Though I've no idea why.
Hey John Cesano,
I do indulge myself on occasion, probably too often, and step out from behind the HoseMaster curtain. As I've said before, that HoseMaster guy wears me out sometimes. Thank you for the kind thoughts, kind words, and unflagging support.

Ron, I very much enjoyed this honest look at "the man behind the curtain". I enjoy reading HMW. the sober and somber, as well as the seething and scathing. I hope that you will continue for another 300.
p.s. glad to see that your subject line did not lead to a picture of you dressed in leather screaming

Ron, happy 300...Taken from the movie? There's a large green screen over your website for writers...use it..
You nailed it with "satire only works when the tone is right".
I love the people you've constructed to populate your world, such as Lo Hai Qu. This is your best work: the people you use. - August 1, 2013 at 5:45 PM

Where's the part where your and your CGI-enhanced six-pack abs start slaying Xerxes' armies in bullet-time slow-motion with blood splattering all over the place and heavy, percussion-driven music pumping in the background? Or was that a different 300???

Thank you. Inside every satirist is a serious writer trying to get out. Mine is Fitzgerald. Drunken bastard.
And, believe it or not, I never once thought about the movie "300" when I wrote this. Probably because I didn't see it. I had to Google it to see that it starred Gerard Butler. Who the hell is he? I thought it had to star Russell Crowe, or Mel Gibson, both of whom scored about 300 on their SAT's.
So no leather shots here. That's on my Tumblr blog, Chappedsac.tumblr
My Gorgeous Samantha,
Me dressed in leather? I'd look like a fucking suitcase.
I love you.
Well, from one fellow satirist to another, I appreciate the comment.
I like the characters, wish I had more, but I just wing it every day I write, and I guess they show themselves when the time is right for them. As you might imagine, a lot of voices in my head. That goddam drunk Fitzgerald, for example.
There ain't enough memory in the world to CGI me a six-pack of abs. They're buried under some very attractive flab.
Though I might use that percussion heavy music for the next Lo Hai Qu piece. She'd dig it.

WTF why does goggle repeat everything?

- Thomas said...
I wanted to but forgot to mention your mention of who reads and comments on so many wine blogs.
Two things have turned me off most of the blogs (three, if you count the bad writing): the incestuous nature of wine blogs, and the constant promotional/networking tone of most bloggers and so many who comment. - August 2, 2013 at 5:15 AM
- Ron Washam, HMW said...
Some days I'm not sure who's the real deal, me or the HoseMaster. But thanks for reading. And I have no idea why Google repeats some comments. But it adds to my comment count!
I usually delete duplicate comments, but, since you've followed up, I'll just leave it all be.
I obviously agree with you. Though I don't see how the incestuous nature of wine blogs could be any different. I've always assumed that more than half of my eleven readers are other bloggers. Maybe I'm somehow more "intimidating"(?)than STEVE! and the self-promoters stay away. Who knows?
There was a time I fretted about my blog stats. Now I don't care. First of all, the way the stats are measured seems impenetrable at best, bogus at worst. Secondly, I try to write this just for the creative exercise. Pandering to attract readers, with alluring headlines and easy topics (nothing gets hits like posts about blogging), might work, but it's the literary equivalent of sticking a cucumber in the front of your pants. Which is fine, but only if it's not straight out of the fridge.
What was my point? - August 2, 2013 at 8:52 AM
- graz said...
Hey Ron, I'll bite and offer you a slightly unflattering critique (as per your reluctant request - who really likes to be criticized?).
Just like a funny person doesn't need to explain their jokes or convince that they have a sense of humor, you don't need to keep telling us that this blog is satire and you are not this blog ... In Real Life.
We get it ... screw those that don't ... and keep up the skewering ... Less explaining please, sir. - August 2, 2013 at 9:08 AM
- Ron Washam, HMW said...
Thanks for that. I hear you.
The problem I have with identity confusion isn't here, on HoseMaster of Wine, it's when I'm at wine events and meeting someone in the biz for the first time. I get one of three reactions. An excited, "Oh, you're the HOSEMASTER!!". Or "Yeah, you're that hosemaster guy." Or, most often, no reaction at all (which comes as a relief). I might have been more clear about that in this piece.
Blogs are always about one thing and one thing only, the blogger. The whole thing is masturbatory. It's all about buying into the illusion that other people give a single solitary turd about what you have to say. And once you buy that, you think that everything you say has some value. It clearly doesn't.
There are days I sit down to write and what comes out is reflective, not comic. I tend to publish both. That can disappoint those who come here for the satire. To them, I humbly apologize. But don't worry, it's always back to the comedy, after these words from our sponsor. - August 2, 2013 at 9:37 AM

These comments made me laugh and crave potatoes. Gotta go find some fries.
Love to you, Ron. As you know we share in heart. Yours. - August 2, 2013 at 9:47 AM
- Thomas said...
Just a warning: there are small cucumbers and there are large cucumbers. Choose well. - August 2, 2013 at 11:41 AM
- Ron Washam, HMW said...
Love to you, too.
You want fries with that? I got lots of common taters around here, and the hot oil to make it happen.
Yeah, I know. But do I put it in the front of my pants, or in the back? Does it matter? - August 2, 2013 at 12:50 PM
- Unknown said...
Hello Ron:
Don't know why it took me so long to subscribe to HMW. Probably something to do with my age and inability to learn all this new-age stuff (blog? log? Facebook? Twitter?... I have enough trouble looking up contacts on my i-phone...) But it was good to read your ruminations as well as many of the comments. You have a good bench here rooting you on in your exploits....
Congrats and here's to at least the next 300 if not 10,000!!
George Ronay - August 4, 2013 at 1:28 PM

Ron,you MUST be important! Today's WineBusiness.com blogger page listed your "Three Hundred" piece TWICE!
Please do not stop writing--ever!
As Samantha said, "you are a constant source of wonder, bent-over-sore-tummy laughter and absolute joy."
I concur!

Hey George,
Yeah, it's a pretty good crowd that supports me here at HoseMaster. But I always need some fresh blood, some rookies. You're a little old for that, but thanks for checking in.
Marlene Darling,
In the wine business, I couldn't be less important if I were wine consultant for Macaroni Grill. The question isn't whether I'll stop writing, but whether I'll stop publishing this crap. For free.
Don't know about "Acoma," though I've been in one for six years. My elementary school was in Long Beach, California.
As for Pallet Press, it's the Certified Kennel for Tiresome Barking Poodles. - August 7, 2013 at 8:34 PM
- Fabio said...
Great post. I made me wonder why I bother to keep writing my own blog - which has even less than the eleven readers of yours :)
- August 8, 2013 at 3:17 AM
- Ron Washam, HMW said...
I often wonder why anyone continues to write a wine blog, and yet they continue. Though it's been a while since a new one made any sort of splash. The output required is certainly daunting, not to mention the energy it takes to keep it up for years.
Yeah, I must be nuts. - August 8, 2013 at 8:14 AM

Chiropractic Treatment for Car Accidents in Greenwich CT
No one anticipates getting into a car accident, but almost everyone that has the misfortune to get into one will have some negative physical effect as a result. Whether it is just a minor fender bender or serious, multi-car crash, your body will absorb the force. Chiropractic treatment for car accidents at our chiropractic office in Greenwich CT is unique to each individual to get the maximum benefit possible.
Common Car Accident Injuries in Greenwich CT
Neck, shoulder, and back injuries are some of the most common issues chiropractors see after a car accident. Whiplash occurs when your cervical spine is abruptly "whipped" backward and then forward, knocking it out of alignment. This injury often happens as the result of a rear-end collision when the recipient doesn't know it's coming. Along with the whipping effect comes muscle stiffness and pain in the days and weeks after the accident. Sometimes, when a driver or passenger sees the impact coming, they will tense up their muscles in anticipation. This can cause them to end up with strained back muscles, neck muscles, or shoulder muscles.
Chiropractic Car Accident Treatments
While your chiropractic treatment for car accidents in Greenwich CT will be customized to match your specific injuries, some of the more common treatment methods include:
- Spinal manipulation
- Muscle stimulation and/or relaxation therapy
- Specific exercises to address the area
- Lifestyle advice to address ergonomic issues that cause pain
Every chiropractic treatment plan for car accidents will include a thorough consultation to determine the main issues and the best course of action to find a solution. Since everyone's body is different, and every car accident is different, the treatment must be customized to the individual to achieve lasting results.
Addressing the Cause
Although the specific treatment protocols will vary, the overriding concept of addressing the cause first remains the same. Typically, when someone is experiencing pain as the result of a car accident, the idea is to mask the pain with pain medication. While this may provide immediate pain relief, the problem that is causing the pain is probably still there.
Our Greenwich CT chiropractor will investigate and get to the underlying cause of the pain. Contact our team today with any questions that you have. We look forward to hearing from you.

If you're in the market to sell, it's probably time to clean house. Selling a home requires preparation, and quite a bit of patience. Here are some pieces to help familiarize yourself with the selling process.
The job of a full-service real estate agent is to represent your best interests through every step of the sales process. Your agent should listen to your needs and understand the market in which you are selling a home. They should be experts in marketing, negotiation, transaction forms, and finance options, as well as have an understanding of technology and how it can enhance the marketing of your home.
Determining the right price is hands-down the most important part of achieving the highest return in the least amount of time. There are a lot of factors that go into determining a home's market value, such as the sales price of nearby homes that have recently sold, the listing price of similar homes that are currently on the market, as well as the condition and location of a home. In order to determine pricing, your agent will provide a comparable market analysis which walks you through what your home is worth and why.
First impressions are key when selling a home, so before the 'for sale' sign goes up, put in the time to make sure it's in ship shape. Fresh paint, clean closets, and cheery flowers- there's a lot you can do to make even the most humble of abodes look like a million bucks.
Creating a plan to market your home will help attract the interest of the right buyer. Today, the vast majority of homebuyers use the internet in their home search, so your marketing plan should include focused online activities, in addition to open houses.
Showings are an inconvenience, yet necessary part of the home selling process. When your home is on the market it has the potential to be shown at any time, so it's important to maintain a certain level of cleanliness. See our Home Staging Tips to help you prepare for showings. It's also a good idea to clear out; it makes buyers uncomfortable to tour a home when the owners are in the next room, so for the sake of your sale, vacate your home for showings.
Whether you're a buyer or a seller, negotiation is the key to getting the best deal. Negotiations can involve everything from settling on a sales price to concessions and financing. Agents are expert negotiators whose job it is to represent your interests during the give and take of a real estate transaction.
Once an offer on a property has been made by a buyer and accepted by the seller, they enter into a legal contract known as a Purchase and Sale Agreement. This document outlines the specific terms and conditions of the transaction and is acknowledged by both parties by the signing of the document.
Once a buyer and seller reach mutual acceptance on a property, a home inspector is hired to investigate every nook and cranny to determine if the home is in need of any repairs. An inspector will check items, such as the roof, basement, heating system, water heater, air-conditioning system, structure, plumbing, and electrical. Afterwards, buyers will have a chance to negotiate with the sellers to cover the costs of certain repairs or to ask for concessions.
Once the offer is accepted and a closing date agreed upon, escrow allows the buyer and the seller to have an outside party ensure all parts of the contact are complete. Your agent can help coordinate the completion of all forms to the escrow company and monitor the escrow process until the completion of the transaction.
At closing, all the paperwork is signed by the buyer and seller, both parties pay any settlement fees and the documents are officially recorded. Prior to closing, you'll receive a settlement statement outlining any fees which may apply to you.
