San Diego Housing Bubble News and Analysis

And that is?
Obviously a place that sells used tires- right?

Just went to 3rd corner in Encinitas on Saturday and was 66 a couple which included entrees, an app and two bottles of wine (one 39 and one 20). Not bad. Their cork fees is 5 bucks across the board and good wine selection.

Im not familiar with wine steals.

Wine bar and wine retailer.
A few months after they opened they realized the next logical step was to put in gnosh food.

You can get a gourmet cheese plate (faux highbrow) or a pepperoni pizza (more my style).

Also, weird wines if you ask.

Recently I had a sparkling red shiraz.

I also had that South African Rhone blend called "Goats do roam" which was the subject of a lawsuit.

They are on university ave in Hillcrest.

Haven't been there since the baby was born but its family friendly.

I'd go but my husband (Guido) is large and ill tempered.
Plus I don't like wine.

I do need a new tire though.

Guido is married to fredo?

I thought you were for prop 8.

Whats this thing about the tire?

I still don't get it.

I'll write slower next time.

It's not what you might think. The relationship is inverse. It's when the wine industry realizes there's enough suckers prepared to pay over the odds for an over-rated fermented juice, smothered in high-falutin terms, that pumps up its 'snob' value. It's killer secret marketing weapon is amnesia. You wake up the next day forgetting what you paid, and go do the same thing all over again :)

I have a big sense of humor but that was really bad bro. Thanks for making my day worse for having read that :)

Wine steals is typically a lot cheaper than that.

You can spend more there if you like but you have to try.

oh brother- see what you started Urban.
Now everyone's all upset.
Don't you know how incendiary wine and cheese can be?

Urban - Thanks for the heads up - good to know.

Has anybody tried the Virgin Vines 2006 shiraz?

I've been going most Sundays at noon for the pour-off. Six half-glasses for $10 of whatever is open from Friday/Saturday.

It's a hit-or-miss affair and the wine is a bit oxidized, but its still the best way to try different stuff for cheap in my experience.

Unfortunately I can't make it tomorrow (still recovering from a trip), but I'll try and make it next week.
