This, by the way, has been debunked by everyone who's tested it except Reidel's marketing department. Reidel makes very high quality stemware, but buy it for looks, not taste.
What I've been told, is if you drink wine from Reidel stemware and know that it's Reidel, and know that Reidel is supposed to make wine taste better, the wine tastes better. If you don't know, though, it doesn't. So it's not a real effect, but the psychological effect is pretty strong.
$55 a glass? I'll stick with the lexan backpacking wineglasses. [link]
I was going to say Hey! Jerry Nadler's my Congressman! But I guess he isn't anymore.
And my aunt's sister-in-law is obsessed with people using the right wine glasses -- she bought my aunt and uncle glasses for several holidays because they kept trying to give her red wine in a white wine glass.

Thank goodness, because I was pretty sure my Boston accent didn't get its grubby hands on my spelling, but for a moment, I was worried.
So would we be able to unravel a flag? Soak it with acid? Stain it? Wipe our ____ with it?
I'm 100% against symbolic amendments.
ISO wineglasses would be the geekiest sort of cool.
You know, it does occur to me that I have enough shelf space to have the different sorts of wine glasses -- and I have the wine.
I just don't drink enough.
Is it actually a spelling variant, then? Though I think she'd still be annoyed;
Ayup.
"Duck Tape" drives her crazy.
But! But!
Okay, my mother's insane too. I don't have a foot to stand on in that kettleblack race.
M’Mburugu had a machete in one hand but dropped that to thrust his fist down the leopard’s mouth. He gradually managed to pull out the animal’s tongue, leaving it in its death-throes.
And I thought Conan biting the vulture was badass.
The paper had an article about the flag burning amendment the other day. The side bar listed all of the things that shouldn't be done to the flag -- print it on paper, wear it as clothes, etc. The question was raised in the article that if the amendment passed would all these rules be enforced.
I'm sure the article was off the AP wire, so someone must have seen something similiar.
I detest flag burning. I also think that every time some protester burns my flag, it makes it stronger.

It does kill me that I'm sure (edit: some) people who support the flag burning amendment use flag paper napkins and stuff for their Fourth of July party.
I don't even understand the rationale. In this country you're allowed to exercise all sorts of freedom of speech against any and all branches of government short of what may be construed as threatening behavior. So you can burn pictures of the president and even print superimposed supreme court justice faces on naked bodies.
So what is the deal?
