In this version, each of the brothers feels the physical afflictions of the other."<BR/><BR/>This reminds me less of the two AOC Corse wines I sampled and more about twins I knew, of whom one worked in my office. He said the classic stupid twin question was from people who wondered whether he could feel pain when his brother was put into an armlock.Marcushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02221624021529319291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18717316.post-40038335583383662572007-04-04T20:26:00.000-04:002007-04-04T20:26:00.000-04:00It is not and education to be desired, but here is...It is not and education to be desired, but here is the Yahoo! movies link http://ca.movies.yahoo.com/movie/1800046526/infoJoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07747056255576335926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18717316.post-91659946668180499122007-04-04T10:39:00.000-04:002007-04-04T10:39:00.000-04:00Joe, no need to apologize.

Since they are usually wines featuring sun-baked Grenache (which are known there as "Cannonau") I favour the Syrah and regional grape blends of Corsica instead. <BR/><BR/>By the way, get used to seeing this post. I'm on vacation.<BR/><BR/>(It's not a real vacation -- just a work break. And that seems to includes blogging, unless the sudden urge to post photos of Ontario wine samples from 2002 hits me.)Marcushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02221624021529319291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18717316.post-1817263718345549452007-04-01T19:17:00.000-04:002007-04-01T19:17:00.000-04:00everytime I see this post I think of Cheech & Chon...everytime I see this post I think of Cheech & Chong's "The Corsican Brothers" (dating myself...). I don't believe I have ever had a Corsican wine - Sardinian, yes, but not Corsican.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07747056255576335926noreply@blogger.com
