Cheney accidentally shoots fellow hunter


WASHINGTON (AP) -- Vice President Dick Cheney accidentally shot and wounded a companion during a weekend quail hunting trip in Texas, spraying the fellow hunter in the face and chest with shotgun pellets.


"The general smiled the quiet smile of one who has faced an obstacle and surmounted it with success. 'I had to invent a new animal to hunt,' he said."

Ha, very nice. I hadn't read that in years.

My hand to God, it was my first thought after I read the headline.

Unrelated to both the Vice-Presidency and quail hunting, I've heard really good things about a wine store in your corner of the world called 'Solo Vino'.

Yes! These are the fine folks that put on the Grape Juice 101 class that we took a few weeks ago. We haven't been back to shop yet, though!

I read a blurb about them in 'Food and Wine' and heard of them on some wine podcast or another. There are lots of good wine 'casts these days.

They are a fine, fine store. I just wish they weren't halfway across town.
