Although the labels won’t matter after “one-too-many” drinks,they still have the power and promise of good design,professionalism and just a hint of menswear.

  • Muppet Party?
  • Black, White, and Red all over ball

I thought I would reward myself for a weekend of hard work. I intended to buy new music on Amazon, for which I have a $5 credit thanks to spending $200 on books this semester; but then got to looking up The Oxford Companion to Wine which the anth. professor who taught our wine-tasting lessons last weekend says is the only wine book worth owning. I got the expensive volume in it’s second edition, rather than the current third edition, used for $5.98 & free shipping. This book is going to be a great addition in my future apartment.
