Impressive Talent

  •  

    The young man was on his first date with the gorgeous young woman and decided to impress her with his abilities in wine tasting.

    He told the wine steward to bring a bottle of 1985 Sterling Cabernet Sauvignon from their Carneros district vineyard.

    Upon tasting the wine, the young man scolded the wine steward, "This is obviously a 1987 vintage from their N. Coast vineyards near Calistoga, please bring me what I ordered."

    As the second bottle was poured, the oenophile tasted the wine and proclaimed, "No, no, no, this is a 1985 all right, but it's from their Mt. Helena vineyards!"

    An old drunk sat watching the display from the bar and staggered over to the couple's table.

    He said, "Wow, that's an impressive talent you have there, can you tell me what's in this glass?"

    Not wanting to pass up an opportunity to impress his date, the young man tasted the liquid in the drunk's glass.

    "Geez, that tastes like urine!" the fellow yelped, as he spit the mouthful out.

    "That's right!" exclaimed the drunk. "Now tell me when and where I was born."
