Randy Randy Randy.....you must have been something else when you were younger. Not that you have changed a bit! [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb/wink.gif[/img] And you wonder why you get into trouble....<grin> I get into my share also, but at least I don't baffle 'em with bull. <grin>


So tell me Randy, do you still pull these antics?? Or is that classified information??
perhaps I don't want to know. [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img]

Ok Caldan, now that you have the Date Demon's advice also, and unfortunately, becuase he did give you good wine choices, I fear it might work.....I still stand by my own advice for the following reasons.

1)Being prepared with knowledge is better than bull!! Now Randy has given you both...so that is why I think it might work THIS time.

2) While Randy's plan is easier, women are VERY perceptive, especially one on one, and chances are, she will figure out what you are doing. ( I am assuming here that you are a guy and your date is female) Now there is the chance that she will sit quietly by and say to herself, " oh look he doesn't have a clue...but he is trying to impress me, isn't that sweet. I am flattered." I have been there and done that.... but she may just as easily say...." he doesn't have a clue...why doesn't he just ask the waiter...what a jerk."

3) At some point down the road, assuming Randy's plan has worked and you get another date, there is going to come a time when you do not have a chance to consult the Date Demon for further tactics on how to keep her baffled about your wine knowledge, or heaven forbid, she asks you a direct question about some wine....then what?? If you actually go and learn a little bit, then you will be better prepared, at least you will be able to make an educated guess.

4) Don't underestimate a womans intellect or generousity. If she likes you well enough to go out with you, chances are, if you are honest, have done what you can to make the evening wonderful, (and remember, the wine is NOTHING compared to your company and attentiveness, and even the Date Demon will agree with me on this one ) and are as prepared as you can be to make your wine choices....she will not mind if you make a mistake...as long as it is an honest one.

Hey Randy, what do we charge for our dating advice?? Wanna do a book together?? We could do a He Said She Said thing. <grin>
