Three sheets to the wind

After much nagging from Elliot, Dana and Amir, we finally got around to joining the Haas Wine Club. Like all student clubs it's designed to introduce potential future leaders of the viticulture industry to vineyards, producers and distributors of fine grape products.

Like all wine clubs it's actually about getting sozzled. I've noted before the amazing effect alcohol can have on networking ability, and so it proved again as the noise levels rose and rose in the business school's Wells Fargo room. Tonight we were "sampling" St. Supery - two whites and two reds, accompanied by lots of cheese and chocolates. Why has it taken us three months to join in?



Hannah and Amir - studying hard in Haas library? No, looking up the Black Friday bargains.



The spread.



Soused.



Boiled as an owl.



Half-cut.



Drunk as a lord.



No comment.
