Let's get together to enjoy good wine and rate it! I have done several blind wine tastings with family and friends and everyone in the room could not believe their pallet. A wine tasting party is an ideal way to get friends and family together to learn about wine and their likes. Great wine and good conversation always leads to a memorable event. The way we have done this in the past, everyone brings a bottle of wine or the host can pick the wines we will taste and everyone shares the bill. The …

And, the societal systems for aging are far worse than negative social attitudes. Our financial structures, housing, and healthcare are completely dys …
