Wilgenburg and Dinuba, hilarious

Yesterday was a good day for Eero fans: the answer to 35 down and the subject of a Slate slide show.

I finished Monday's puzzle over one cup of coffee and felt very Miss Smartypants Ha-ha and then pretty much have sucked since then. Who sang "I Am the Poetry Man?" I'm almost happy I didn't know the answer to that. And yet I can hum it quiet well.

In the hub-bub of the Napa Valley Wine Auction events last weekend I went to Bruni's darling, Ubuntu wherein the bartender answered "Yes" to this question: Is the Domaine Carneros sparkling a blanc de blancs or blanc de noir? Thinking that perhaps she did not understand my question, I asked it again and she again answered "Yes." I then asked to see the bottle so I could discover the answer on my own and she ROLLED HER EYES at me. Very un-yoga like of her. And so deserving of that 5% tip I left.
