A Question from "All Things Beautiful"

As one of that distrusted minority, imagine how gloriously distrusted we will be once we've organized ourselves into a terror network and freely indulge in purse snatching and petty fog-- er, crime.

"Sacramental Wine......uuhmmmmm" [in Homeresque reverie]

Goddamned Pagan. Wait! Dionysus was god of what was it again??? Not even the Orthodox have one of those.

Bacchic to the Future!

Mr roT said...

Had some of this a couple nights ago. Where do I convert?

Arelcao Akleos said...

If you drink the sacred wine, I believe that alone converts you. But if a more formal ceremony is desired, try you local Sunset Cafe' on the Somerville --Cambridge line

Mr roT said...

Argentine wine in a Brazilian (oops, Portuguese) place? I'll be garroted en el modo viejo. Plan B?

Arelcao Akleos said...

Plan B is then go to a hoity toity French place, and dare them to stop you from drinking the Montevidean Special?

Arelcao Akleos said...

OK,plan B requires you go to an Argentine Charuscerria [spelling?] and letting roast flesh accompany the swags from the flagons of wine

What do you think of this version?

About the Clos de los Siete, had it at a great little cheapish Frencho place here in JP. Wish you were here. Had confit and grilled lamb... Wonderful, actually.

Arelcao Akleos said...

Ah....wish I had been there. Did you check to see if the confit was that ersatz cinnamon laced kind?

Mr roT said...

Of course it wasn't. Also, it came with about the baconiest lentils I've ever eaten outside my own kitchen. It was wonderful.

My Frontier Thesis said...

Just a minor digression from the confit, Brazilian vino, and bacon: Richard Dawkins is a militant athiest (the worst kind) and lacks empathy to the hilt, but this guy is a bit off the mark to call him an idiot. It's unfortunate to think that someone would let their spiritual/theological/religious worldview be challenged just because they are in the company of a non-believer. And the same goes for non-believers who feel a need to shove their godless-isms into the face of someone who believes the almighty, or diety, is on a plane beyond our senses.
