Charming

Wine charms. Why?

I thought this was going to be some stupid fad that would burn out once a bunch of unfortunate gift recipients had received the wretched things and thrown them away. But another present-giving season looms and here they are again.

What kind of social occasions require the enthusiastic porting about and intermittent abandonment of wine glasses? And if your guests are too drunk or too dim to remember where they put their glasses, remembering which adorable little charm was theirs is likely to be equally challenging.

Just say no.

I can certainly see the abandonment, if nothing else. Once when I was having dinner in the Sydney Opera House, my date insisted on giving just such an impromptu musical performance and nearly took out all the windows. Where's an opera singer when you need one?
