Just discovered - The prefect kilt pin!

[James MacMillan]

I like it. fashion follows function.

Turpin - Now don't get pissed or anything, but I always thought that your avatar was a coke bottle opener......

'Tis indeed a great pin but what's the blade for? For it to be functional in a damn hurry won't you lose the magnets?

The blade is for cutting the metal foil on the top of the wine bottle, and then you twist in the little screwy thingy into the cork, sort-of like a cork screw, then you put the hooky thing-a-ma-jig on top of the bottle and pull up till you break the cork. Then you push the cork pieces down into the bottle and pour the wine though a napkin, so as not to choke on the cork, but you do spill a bit and get wine all over your hose (but missing the kilt!) thereby forcing you to die the hose a very dark green.

Or at least that's how I remember it!

Oh I see, poor you, you drink the old stuff. Us more refined just unscrew the cap or drink directly from the box.

Yet another keyboard covered in coffee...

I really need to learn to take drinks between threads.

Blue Nun, perhaps?

I've had a very nice Jesuit Riesling.

Guess I'll just stick to drinking clear stuff out of this unlabeled mason jar.


Neat idea, though!
