Get a load of the articles in the latest WS about wine collecting, esp. the dude in Atlanta who has 25,000 bottles spread over seven cellars. Funny stuff. Our better halves need to read those, to see that we're not so far gone afterall. Or as I told D at supper tonight, "See? It could be worse!"

That would be the case if our better half were to be rational about our ... umm.. hobbies. Her answer to me would be "just because he is that crazy does not give you the right to be somewhat crazy!!!" [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/smile.gif[/img]

25,000 bottles...wow....bet you he is not thinking about drinking it all [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/smile.gif[/img] That is also some serious dosh. Assuming $50 per bottle (and that would appear to be on the low side), it would still be a collection weth $1.25 million plus his storage space.......More likely 3 or four times that would be the minimum.
