Dinner last night with Eva, Jon and John K at Amada. It's a Spanish tapas place - very, very good. We had cured meats, cheeses, fried baby anchovies, flatbreads with various toppings, roast pork, shrimp, octopus. Delicious. And the saying of the evening?

"The blond boy is a loser."

This from a new Subway sandwich commercial starring Jon Lovitz, which only Eva had seen, but which was repeated a few (THIRTEEN) times over the course of the dinner.

[Perhaps the sangria made it funnier.]

Up to NYC today for a meeting and lunch. Kind of a long trip for that, but who am I to judge? On the other hand, I am judging the pitch black storm clouds and ominous thunder outside the window right now. Good thing I have my Mickey Mouse umbrella!

[It's still not Orlando though.]

SAVE YOUR CORKS!!

[Only 7,210 more needed for our wine cellar wall.]
