Thursday was interesting wasn’t it? I think we all realize how much this place means to us and that we want to keep the Crasstalk buzz going. Frankly, maintaining this place is going to take money. The question is this: how should Crasstalk generate this money?
The site that shall not be named, who also helped create Thursday’s pickle (with some help from Arken), apparently thinks that orange finger-staining Frito-lay snacks is the ideal way to feed Nibbles. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want a Cheeto War here — and I don’t think Honey Badger will stand for it either.
Booze seems to be a unifying force here and that is why I created The Crasstalk Buzz Maintenance Program. Purchase fabulous wine through www.winedreamer.com using coupon code: FEEDTHEBADGER and Crasstalkers will get 10% off their wine purchases and 10% will go to our Crasstalk Overlords to offset the costs of upgrading and maintaining this site. Turn your vice into something nice, for a change.
But wait there is more!
During the evening of Thursday, March 24th, I will host live-blog winetasting and walk Crasstalker’s through six wines from www.winedreamer.com. So invite some friends over, unless you plan to plow through six bottles of wine yourself!
The wines that we will be tasting are as follows — pricing includes 10% discount:
Whites:
- Secret 2007 White Wine ($12.59)
- Piro Piro Piccolo 2009 Pinot Grigio ($15.29)
- Martellotto Chardonnay 2009 Santa Barbara ($17.99)
Reds:
- Martellotto 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Paso Robles ($17.99)
- M by Martellotto 2008 Pinot Noir Willamette Valley ($21.59)
- Either Conservative Red or Progressive Red — same Meritage wine, different labels to reflect your political persuasion ($22.49)
You do not have to purchase all of these wines to participate, obviously. If you end up purchasing some of the other wines from www.winedreamer.com, let us know how they taste during our live-blog. I will probably bring out Pura Vida as that is a favorite. Any wine you purchase at www.winedreamer.com that uses code FEEDTHEBADGER will get the 10% discount and will get the 10% to support the site.
FYI….1. Shipping is not included in these prices and the cost to ship 1 bottle or 6 is about the same; 2. Discount will not show up until the FEEDTHEBADGER code is entered and until the final screen at checkout.
Remember no code = no money for Crasstalk and no discount for you. Any questions, feel free to email me at [email protected]
Cheers!
