I realized I never followed thorough with posting the notes here, but. This wine def ranged from undrinkable to interesting.
I order Jura wine from time to time now. Another way Sir Patrick Stewart has influenced my life, even though the dramaturgical considerations of Chateau Picard were absurdly neglected by the show.

Well Iāve ordered every wine at K&L from vaguely this region of Burgundy/Jura, and as you can see, the case authentically bears the name ChĆ¢teau Picard. Stay tuned for tasting notes.

Good time to resurface this bit of pedantry that went viral and weirdly made some people angry?
My only question is why the Picard family vineyard switch from VSP trained vines to the Guyot system between TNG episode āFamilyā and this series. As LaBarre is in Bourgogne, Iād have expected Guyot the whole time, but why switch?

I once won a Star Trek trivia night while blacked out. I donāt remember winning, but I did wake up with the prize - pair of off-Broadway tickets - in my pants in the floor.
Fortunately for you, I will not be competing.
Come celebrate the life of Sir Pat with us!

Ok! @davidcrawshaw, @ledwards and I are hosting a Star Trek Trivia Night this coming Monday in honor of Sir Patrick Stewart. I'm still finalizing the venue but register here to join us. luma.com/hydyqgll

Heāll never know this but Patrick Stewart showed countless boys how to be men. He showed that strength didn't have to mean intimidation, that intelligence should come with humility, and that you could - and should - stand up for what was right even when it cost you something.

"Someone once told me that time is a predator that stalks us all our lives, but I rather believe that time is a companion who goes with us on the journey, reminds us to cherish every moment, because they'll never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we lived. After all, Number One, we're only mortal."

Too sad to say much about this. One of the few celebrity deaths that could make me choke up reading it.

Ok I had a lot to say lol. Or rather Sir Patrick and William Shakespeare did. Remember him the way he wanted to leave his mark and have a good cry.
Sir Patrickās pandemic sonnets remain one of the greatest works of modernizing Shakespeare of all time.
In 400+ years of Shakespeare, how fortunate we are to have shared the same 20% as Sir Patrick.
Here are a few. I wonder which heād most want to be remembered with.

Please watch at least one and remember the legend sharing with the world his favorite works of art. 71 is my favorite, the last one is his.

Sonnet 146
Poor soul, the centre of my sinful earth,
Thrall to these rebel powers that thee array,
Why dost thou pine within and suffer dearth,
Painting thy outward walls so costly gay?
Why so large cost, having so short a lease,
Dost thou upon thy fading mansion spend?
Shall worms, inheritors of this excess,
Eat up thy charge? Is this thy bodyās end?
Then, soul, live thou upon thy servantās loss,
And let that pine to aggravate thy store;
Buy terms divine in selling hours of dross;
Within be fed, without be rich no more.
So shalt thou feed on Death, that feeds on men,
And Death once dead, thereās no more dying then.

Leaving on a palette cleanser while typing with tears. Sir Patrickās all-time favorite. A sonnet about true love.
Thank you @SirPatStew for leaving so many works of beauty in this world. Live long, and prosper. ā¤ļø ā¤ļø ā¤ļø
Sonnet 116
Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds
Or bends with the remover to remove.
O no! it is an ever-fixĆØd mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandāring bark,
Whose worthās unknown, although his height be taken.
Loveās not Timeās fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickleās compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.
