Sell No Wine Before Its Time
Alas, this young wineseller's time ran out. Pretty small set here, but I post what I can get these days. This was a young woman in her mid-20's who worked at a liquor store. On New Year's Eve several men came into the store and locked the door behind them. One of them held her at knife-point in the back room as the others carried several boxes of wine out through the back delivery entrance. Despite the fact that she put up no resistance, when they had purloined their fill of booze they slashed her throat and left her to choke on her own blood on the floor. She was found dead a few hours later when her family came looking for her after she did not return from work. The murder weapon was presumably that two-tined fork-like object lying next to her. Seems a very callous way to do business...terrorizing the poor woman while you rob her and then stabbing her in the throat and leaving her to die. But I guess they really wanted that vino. Perpetrators have not been caught.  ·  ·  · |

Re: Sell No Wine Before Its Time
Those meat forks are pretty sharp. I once accidentally stabbed myself with one hard enough to draw blood. You could easily fully-penetrate someone's neck with one. I wonder if they stole Paul Masson boxed wine, given your title Vedderman. And since Paul Masson was the brand that would "sell no wine before it's time", here's one last bon mot involving their drunken spokesman, Orson Welles, trying to deliver his lines.   |

Re: Sell No Wine Before Its Time
Sitting down and watching CHIMES AT MIDNIGHT or THE IMMORTAL STORY and then seeing him demean himself thusly while trying to cover his debts and keep the IRS at bay is always profoundly troubling. It is mitigated only by the fact that he at least seems cognizant of the debasement and has chosen to laugh unabashedly in its face while getting so soused he can barely sit up. Welles has always been one of my greatest heroes and was one of the most profound geniuses of 20th century cinema. |
