Portland Fluoride Scam
Did our MAYOR of PORTLAND actually just sign up our whole city to put POISON in our WATER? WTF?
I’ve heard that making beer with flouridated water concentrates it to the point of causing illness. So is this gonna mean that our brewpubs have to go away?
A Brita filter won’t get it out of our tap water so I’m really wondering if bottled water companies go around bribing city officials to sign up their citizens? I’ve also been told that heavy industry creates this crap (as a side effect of destroying our environment) so they also would then want to sell this and thus the big flouride scam of the 1970s.
We have had 2 rreservoir poisoning incidents in the last couple years. Could this be done to scare people into buying into this?
Is anyone looking into this?

In Continuing Our Holiday in Spain
Still in Spain. Has anyone ever seen this crooked shield over the door business before?
This wine was amazing. I don’t know what Sicilia has to do with it but since my wine is Sicilian and Bodegas Vega is about the best of Spain I kinda expected that it would be. I’ll do a little research when I get home.

Nights in Spain
Looks like this might be somebody’s final tour. Boo hoo. A farewell to Feet.

Wymond Miles is playing at Holocene in Portland Wednesday and 1776 is opening. The three of us played together in Denver and it was an amazing night all around.
Here’s one off of Wymond’s new record.
And 1776 has a lot of amazing new songs that haven’t been recorded yet so show up in time to see them.

By the way last night me and some of the gang sat in a bar in the Spanish town of Aranda de Duero and watched Spain give the U.S. Basketball team a run for their money. Safe to say we weren’t the most popular folks in the bar but I must admit that one look at Kobe Bryant and I found myself rooting for the Spaniards. I guess I have some deeply seeded Western Conference resentment built up.

Wine Update
Ok it looks like we haven’t gotten retail permission for outside the USA so lemme work on it. Thanks everyone for your outstanding show of patience.
It’s too hot to ship wine for at least another month or two so I’ll try to get it going in time for the ship date. Alcohol I’m finding has a lot of weird and old laws surrounding it.

Tour Photos: Spain 11 August
Looks like paradise, right? I dove in and it’s so cold I think I got a fugging concussion. Wtf. It’s like a hundred out here so where do they get 4,000 gallons of icewater? And why? Nobody goes in. That’s why I can get a picture of a pool with nobody in it at noon when it’s 100 degrees out.
Oh. There it is. Looks like there’s no need to go outside after all.

Entrar en España
España. Driving north from Madrid to the wine country called Ribera del Duero. Had one of their wines last night and it was very good. Not a lot of “character” which I was glad of. More like Bordeaux than Rioja.
So I was just remarking on how much it looks like eastern Oregon on this drive. Except that that when you pass a building it looks like this.

Chateau Taylor-Taylor Presale August 11
Okay, so that RED wine that I survived third-degree burns in my mouth all across America to create is nearly ready. The presale goes online
[fergcorp_cdt_single date=”Fri, 10 Aug 2012 23:20:00″]
This wine if you’ll remember is designed to bring the old world red wine experience to spicy foods. Something I’ve been hoping for years that someone else would do.
I spent the last tour across the US trying to figure out what and why red wine tends to make spicy go blistering in RED wine. I ended up getting a lot of help, advice, and experience and finally came up with a blend of two fairly obscure Sicilian grapes that deliver an earth and mineral old world red with a vaguely bright opening bouquet. Do I sound like an asshole yet? Well I’m pretty serious about wine so believe me, this is beautiful in the order of older Borolo, Rioja and Bordeaux or even a little Barbaresco except bigger.
You’ll shit. It’s awesome.
