    Million dollar question: Is EV's wine chilled before he comes on stage?
    How many times so we have to go over this??? Ed Vedder fills his wine bottles with Gatorade prior to the show!  ;)

    No you don't. That's crazy talk. Please don't tell us that you also refrigerate your red wines!
    You are actually supposed to chill your red in a fridge before opening. 
    Ok  although this goes against all I stand for I am prepared  as always to learn. I have some California  merlot that is one of my go to daily wines. I am to night going to try this. I will report back. I hope nobody come round and sees what I'm up to. I will have to draw the curtains and turn off all lights so people  think I'm out.
    Yes!!!!  I want a full report.

    I had Reserved at Wrigley and was seated behind a black net that obstructed the view of the stage.   The view sucked.   Next day I had GA tho :)
    A child's rhyme stuck in my head...
    It said "Life is nothing but a dream."
    I've spent so many years in question
    To find I'd known this all along.

    Chris Cornell suicide was selfish and cowardly..beat that!! I know he was suffering from depression but to do that to your kids is....
     I think someone wished death on me for that one..
    Whenever I see comments of this ilk I wonder if the person making the comment ever stops to consider how much the person taking their own life must be suffering to make that choice. 

    As someone who has attempted to take their own life & also as someone who also on occasion has the privilege of working with people who have attempted to take their own life, I’m deeply saddened that comments like this ever get made as they seem to bypass empathy or compassion, heading straight to a judgment.

    In somewhat defense of wndowpayne, the terseness of making such a declarative statement on an internet message board accentuates the idea of heading straight to judgment. 

    Empathy and compassion are not as hard coded into our DNA.  We have to work at them.  The good thing is, that despite what it seems like sometimes in the world the TV shows us, we are getting much better at it.

    Keep doing great work @IamTom , and thank you for helping others by being open about yourself.

    I've tried it . I think if I lived in a hot country maybe ok. But in England it's fuckin cold most of the year. Like ale is a nice autumn or winter drink I find red wine the same. So I prefer room temp.

    It's dull here. I have an allotment (not  sure if that is a thing there) a plot to grow veg on.
    I went there earlier a ground frost and cold wind. The joys of England. Dank

    They can indeed be tough - especially if there's family strife. On a slightly less serious note, shopping/finding the right gift  is stressful... commercialism is as rampant as ever... lots of financial strain.
