It's Saturday night, so you know what that means!  Bottoms up!
True that! Are you celebrating anything tonight with a drink?
Nothing really, it's just a weekly thing for me, although I did just finish my accounting final project, so there is that.
You should celebrate with a drink! I find it hilarious that nearly every civilization has independently discovered the processes of making beer, wine and spirits.
I always wonder how that happened, like did they eat some spoiled fruit one day and think, "you know what, this tastes good, and it kinda makes me feel all warm and fuzzy."
Haha exactly! I really think that is how it happened. You know, they have found residue of a fermented grape drink in a jug from 7000–6650 BC?
That's news to me.  I don't know if jug wine compares to a nice Napa wine, but it would be nice of those old recipes survived.
Napa wine is pretty good, but it is so juvenile compared to wine from Italy that goes back centuries! I mean, Napa was first made a city in 1872.
Napa's only been a city since 1872, but there's been people working the land long before that, although some was surely turned up during the Gold Rush.
That is true! It is still impressive how the region has established such a high caliber wine culture in such a short amount of time. Premium wine production only started around the 1960s there!
