Ben's Business Book Club Just started this one got sucked in. I'm reading to find insight about finding my calling in life. I find the best business books are psychological. Business is a game against your past self.

In the Colorado mountains, intense UV accelerates phenolic development, while cool nights slow sugar accumulation. This gives tannins and anthocyanins time to fully develop before the Brix climbs too high. Picking at 23 Brix isn't the concession it would be in a hotter region, where sugar can race ahead of phenolic development and force growers to pick before it matures. I pick my Pinot at numbers that would look early in Napa, but taste complete here.

On LinkedIn today a fat bald dude took exception to one of my health posts to which I replied: You don't look like you know about health. Then a woman with INSTENSE resting bitch face told me: "My response was inappropriate" I uh, don't think she knows about being nice.

It takes four years before a new vine gives you a good harvest. That's also the minimum length of time you should hold bitcoin. I planted a new vineyard in 2020 and found bitcoin later that same year. Both are taking longer than I expected. That's fine by me.

That's it. No more TV until Football season. It was a great year for the Broncos, Spurs and the world cup, but now it's time to LIVE.

Not all grapes carry the same histamine load and the gap between varieties is bigger than people assume. Thick-skinned reds like Malbec and Syrah produce more histamines during fermentation than thin-skinned ones. A big reason why histamine sensitivity hits harder in reds than whites. That said, the histamine load matters less than your body's ability to process it. Many winemakers overuse sulfur. They argue that people do not have negative reactions to sulfur without recognizing that sulfur decreases your body's ability to process histamines and can lead to allergic-like reactions after drinking wine. My Estate Pinot Noir is a thin-skinned grape and I use minimal sulfur in producing it. If you get headaches from drinking red wine, this Pinot's for you.
