A quotation from Horace

O my brave men! stout hearts of mine!
   who often have suffered worse calamities with me.
let us now drown your cares in wine.
   Tomorrow we venture once again upon the boundless sea.
 
[O fortes peioraque passi
mecum saepe viri, nunc vino pellite curas;
cras ingens iterabimus aequor.]

Horace (65–8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]
Odes [Carmina], Book 1, # 7, l. 30ff (1.7.30-32) (23 BC) [tr. Alexander (1999)]

    FIG 75

    A fun, autumnal riff on the French 75. Figs are dropping everywhere around me and I saw this timely spec from IG highproofpreacher. Easy to batch, too. Combine all the stuff besides your sparkling wine, add 20% water, then combine with the bubbles as you serve each glass.

    - 4 dashes orange bitters
    - 5-6 dashes Chartreuse Vegetal
    - ½ oz lemon juice
    - ½ oz fig syrup
    - 1½ oz cognac
    - 3 oz sparkling wine

    Shake // strain // float // Garnish: lemon peel

    Method: set bubbles aside. Combine remaining ingredients in a shaker with ice and shake. Strain into a chilled coupe, top with bubbles, and garnish.

        Phoenicians, not Romans, brought wine to Spain, ancient grape DNA shows

        Wine growing in the Iberian Peninsula began about 3,000 years ago with grapevines from the eastern Mediterranean, according to new research. Ancient DNA links the first cultivated vines in southern Iberia to domesticated grapes from regions around the eastern Mediterranean and the Balkans...

          If there is a wine festival in Baden-Baden with some jazz musicians and you happen to be there on that day, then you're obligated to take part. I don't write the rules.

          Four bottles of Riesling and excellent conversation, just made it to the station in time for my train back to Bremen. An exceptional day out, with new French friends, and now the long journey home.

              A quotation from The Bible

              Wine is very life to humans
                 if taken in moderation.
              What is life to one who is without wine?
                 It has been created to make people happy.
              Wine drunk at the proper time and in moderation
                 is rejoicing of heart and gladness of soul.
                 
              [ἔφισον ζωῆς οἶνος ἀνθρώποις,
                 ἐὰν πίνῃς αὐτὸν ἐν μέτρῳ αὐτοῦ.
              τίς ζωὴ ἐλασσουμένῳ οἴνῳ;
                 καὶ αὐτὸς ἔκτισται εἰς εὐφροσύνην ἀνθρώποις.
              ἀγαλλίαμα καρδίας καὶ εὐφροσύνη ψυχῆς

                  Don’t abandon old friends,

                     New friends are like new wine;

                    Hey uhh

                    (hopefully that combination helps the rotten grape fans to move on quickly, I need leet Linux nerds who know about wine and midi passthrough)

                    I have a pedal with a win/mac software controller, which uses midi to communicate with the pedal. I would like to attempt to run this under wine; is passing through midi a difficult thing with wine?

                    I don't even need the timing to be particularly good, as all the software is doing (for me, anyways) is managing presets, so I can have the correct PC sent for various songs.
