Aren't all interviews with Joe Dressner funny? He's the only guy I know who can get laughs out of having a brain tumor.

Sorry to hear that Buster died. Never met him, but have drunk many bottles with his picture. I'll toast him with a 05 Thomas Labaille LMD Buster soon.

I generally find Dressner (or at least his online personality, maybe he's different in person) to have good content, brisk information, and a strong finish. With air there's a strong note of humor, although there is sometimes a soupcon of obnoxiousness that detracts a bit from the palate. In any case I wish him luck on his health issues (probably selfishly, because I enjoy a lot of wines he imports). A-

Hmmm, that was before my time, so it would be great if you could care to elaborate (though I would understand if you preferred not to).

Was Dressner the guy that was buddies with that Robert Callahan character on the old board?
