| All I know is with all this talk, Johnny better pony up some good wine. We all have Kistler, Martinelli & Aubert now. Time for some Marcassin or Littorai me thinks.
And how the heck did Johnny get 550 posts? | | | |

I don't see why not. Corkage's place is maybe 15 minutes from Dulles. Hop a shuttle and your good.

| Sounds wonderful as usual, Corkage. Too bad that will be missing this one. Pat, Anil, and I get on the plane on August 7th (the day after your dinner) in the evening to leave for Johannesburg!
Have a great time.

| So the 6th is Rita's sister's birthday, so she is occupied. Apparently there is a family dinner that night, but Rita's family doesn't cook like Corkage (even with Johnny getting in the way), so we are bailing on the family. | | | |

| Doc, sorry we didn't get to meet again before you leave, got a tamale on the menu that will steal the show (despite you naysayers).   Skwid, youre' always welcome, especially when youre packing Krug. Jason, NY is closer than Hawaii, thats for sure. Independence flys out of Dulles which is 6-1/2 minutes from my house, not 15 minutes as Fred exaggerates.  TJ you can come early and baste Johnny in butter, or better yet, duck fat. Actually, if I plan and prep things right, it should be a relatively smooth menu to pull off.  I saw some fresh wild sturgeon last night, that might be the way to go instead of the stripers. Hmm.  | | | |

I sent Mrs. TJ the proposed menu line-up and she said, allow me to quote --
"...HOLY CRAP!! WOW! He better start this show early! I can't wait to try the duck tamale!! Why is this man a lawyer?"

| Might be worth checking into. Does anyone know by chance how far(how much time) JFK is from midtown(3rd between 58th and 59th)? | | | |

| Well, I would love to attend this dinner, but I have to cook a birthday dinner of my own for my wife and family. Have a great time everyone, and I hope you find a good beverage director for the evening Corkster.  | | | |

| So, do we even need a beverage director? Or shall we just wing it? I can assist with the duties most certainly as needed.  | | | www.roguefood.com -- www.cellartracker.com | |
