Winos can get quite poetic about their tipple, can't they? I've seen
many a piss-stinking drunk cradling a bottle of rotgut like a newborn
babe, crooning soothing lullabies and promising eternal love.
The problem with wine is when people take it seriously and treat it as
anything other than something that gets you sloshed. Who cares what it
smells like? And as long as the burning and stomach cramps wear off the
next day, it can taste like Eva Braun's unwashed gym knickers for me.
A cheeky bottle of the '44, anyone?
