10. I find that the Friday afteroon shift vintage
has a fuller bouquet than the Tuseday shift.
Wednesday's vintage is amusing though.

8. Ah, boxed wine. Franzia's boxed rose, I knew ye well.
You never knew exactly how much you drank with the boxed wines. Only by shaking the box. :-) I remember them quite well...I had some good times with them. :-)

9. Hey, I'm spending the evening with my two best friends ...

Ernest and Julio Gallo.

Hey, box wines are great. Think about this. If you pick up a glass bottle of wine and hit yourself with it on the forehead, it's a trip to the emergency room. If you pick up a box of wine and hit yourself on the head with it, you just look silly.

17. Boxed wine has a bad rap
Granted, it's well-deserved, since only shit wine was packaged that way for so long.

But, if you want to buy Hardy's merlot or shiraz (a rather nice, inexpensive aussie wine) in a 3 liter quantity, the box is great. It's cheaper than 4 bottles (same quantity of wine), and due to the collapsible mylar bag, the wine doesn't oxidise if you drink it slowly.

20. I'm too old for that kid stuff
At the ripe old age of 30, nothing but wine for me, I'm afraid.
