Duct tape for any stinky people.<br /><br />And as for the "I don't spit" people..you're going to be laughed at by all the real wine professionals around you, so suck it up and practice in your hotel room.Beauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05835422435318171027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4644181335443143726.post-15244146555657625682012-08-12T11:05:29.359-07:002012-08-12T11:05:29.359-07:00Thanks Dan, I think you enunciated my reasoning pe...Thanks Dan, I think you enunciated my reasoning perfectly. Even if you miss out on a side party, people need to realize they've dropped almost $100 and therefore, getting some real value out of the WBC is more important than partying with your friends.Beauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05835422435318171027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4644181335443143726.post-34238821277042264702012-08-12T11:01:53.430-07:002012-08-12T11:01:53.430-07:00Good article Beau.

In addition to helping the flow of the conference, it makes sure you stay busy doing things that matter to you, even if you don't get connected with the side parties or trips you were hoping to.Subtlethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16309575540292188197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4644181335443143726.post-83115891155089213222012-07-30T17:44:43.604-07:002012-07-30T17:44:43.604-07:00Hopefully this doesn't sound silly, but I wear...Hopefully this doesn't sound silly, but I wear minimum lipstick -- maybe just enough to create a tiny stain, but not enough to stick to the glasses. I figure the folks in the kitchen are going to have enough to clean up without having to pay extra attention to lipstick that so often needs to be hand-scrubbed in order to come off.Carolyn Blakesleehttp://www.thefrugalwinesnob.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4644181335443143726.post-52696347215472615412012-07-30T10:04:51.184-07:002012-07-30T10:04:51.184-07:00Good call!
