My fiancé bought a house over 4 years ago and there were about 10 bottles of wine left in the cellar from the previous owners. Most are red wines with maybe 2 white wines. The years range from 1981-1994 and from what we can see they are just house wines and nothing fancy (the previous owners put "house" labels on the bottles). I've tried finding these wines on the internet but had no luck as of yet.

Neither of us knows a thing about wine, but had heard that most wines over 12 years really aren't good any more. What is the worst that could happen from drinking these old wines? I was assuming they could just taste really bad but probably would not make you ill. Am I correct in that assumption?

WHY AM I MARRIED?

You have two choices in life:
You can stay single and be miserable or get married and wish you were dead.

At a cocktail party, one woman said to another,
"Aren't you wearing your wedding ring on the wrong finger?"
"Yes, I am. I married the wrong man."


A lady inserted an ad in the classifieds:
"Husband Wanted".
Next day she received a hundred letters.
They all said the same thing:
"You can have mine."


When a woman steals your husband,
there is no better revenge than to let her keep him.


A woman is incomplete until she is married. Then she is finished


A little boy asked his father,
"Daddy, how much does it cost to get married?"
Father replied, "I don't know son, I'm still paying."


A young son asked, "Is it true dad, that in some parts of Africa
a man doesn't know his wife until he marries her?"
Dad replied, "That happens in every country, son."

Then there was a woman who said,
"I never knew what real happiness was until I got married,
and by then, it was too late."

Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence.



Just think if it weren't for marriage, men would go through life thinking they had no faults at all.

First guy says, "My wife's an angel!"
Second guy remarks, "You're lucky, mine's still alive."

"A Woman's Prayer:
Dear Lord, I pray for: Wisdom, to understand a man, to Love and to forgive him, and for patience, for his moods. Because Lord, if I pray for Strength I'll just beat him to death "



Husband and wife are waiting at the bus stop with their nine children. A blind man joins them after a few minutes. When the bus arrives, they find it overloaded and only the wife and the nine kids are able to fit onto the bus.

So the husband and the blind man decide to walk. After a while, the husband gets irritated by the ticking of the stick of the blind man as he taps it on the sidewalk, and says to him, "Why don't you put a piece of rubber at the end of your stick? That ticking sound is driving me crazy."

The blind man replies, "If you would've put a rubber at the end of YOUR stick, we'd be riding the bus so shut the hell up

Society in Australia has changed dramatically, with families splitting up all over the place. Sharing the commitments for the kids on 50/50 basis looks allright, but is not. What is "home" for the kids? Also their is a housing crisis in Australia. No wonder, now-a-days, two houses are needed for families with divorced parents in stead of one. In the past mam and dad lived separated but all were still under one roof.

Why do christian leaders interpret bible scripture to suit their needs at the time? For example, before the whole global warming issue took off, christian leaders would say the world is at God's mercy and then back it up with some bible verse. Now that the global warming issue is front and center, christian leaders say that the earth is a gift from God and we should take better care of it, followed by some other bible verse. How do the faithful expect the heathen hordes to take them seriously with such discrepancies? Is organized religion about saving the lost sheep, or is it about pandering and money?

I think so. Before this war mess started there were quite a few Christians living rather peacefully in Muslim countries.

Now of course there is a lot of anger because of the wars and oppression.

So we both got off the motorway and stopped on the hard shoulder and there didnt seem to be no damage on his car but a small scratch from before and you could easily tell it wasnt from this accident. We exchanged registration numbers and contact number but no insurance details he, said to me he will get a respray quote and get back to me asap. He still hasnt contacted me, if he doesnt contact me for another 4 or 5 days will he void his insurance by not notifying them about the accident within 48hours ???? please help and what should i do ??
thanks

What is the cheapest way but yet the most profitable way to go on ebay? doing auctions or just running a store. I have bought some things off ebay and have my paypal account but have never checked out the costs to get setup or how much time it takes. I'd love to hear from sellers on ebay to tell me what they think.

Japan and Philippines are particularly using the gasoline ratings of 93, 94, and 95 (the last being the highest). What is the difference, if any, of these ratings with those being utilized in the USA, where ratings of 87, 88, and 89 are respectively being used?

I hate my life, I have no money and no friends and everyone screams and yells at me and all I want is to be left alone and for them all to get out my life and just let me be. My house is so small I can never be on my own and my mom just walks in and out my room when ever she likes and now her boyfriend has started to do the same. I cant be alone, I cant do anything on my own, I get treat like a little kid and when I don't do something that someone else wants exactly they way they want it I get screamed and yelled at, and even if I do get everything right I still get screamed and yelled yet and treat like I am 5.

My mom goes on about taking medicine and wont listen to a single thing I say, I feel like a freak and she don't even care, all she does is goes on and on and on about stuff I already know, and even why I do take it she still goes on about it and even when I got it she says I didn't get it and wont listen when I say I have so she forces me to take more of it.

I really like Connie and it isn't fair that we cant be together but I know why we cant and I am trying to stay away from her, see I want my mom to be happy and I don't want to wreck things but she don't even care a single tut about me and all she does is go on and on and on and on and doesn't stop.

My room is a mess and look like there has been a bomb in it and I am too depressed to clean it up, I don't see the point because anything I do is always compared to other people and I hate it, it makes me more depressed more sad, more angry, more hurt and no one seems to notice.

I don't go out, I don't have friends and I was forced to go to my uncles today and listen to a load of babbling dribble, all because my mom thought I should (help out), I hate it. All I want is to be left alone, on my own, in my room to listen to my music and play on my computer and I wish everyone would get off my case and let me live my life

Not that I have much of a life – I hate it but I don't know how I can change it, perhaps I would be better off if I could just die and save everyone the trouble.

Its so not fair
