Back on the Fringe

Jacob Gaffney  in Writer/Actor , , ,

InterWined once starred in a production at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival…back in 2002.
The Scotsman actually reviewed the show, “Chekhov for Breakfast,” and I still remember the opening line of the text: “There is something rotten at the heart of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and Chekhow for Breakfast is the perfect example…”
I’d tell you more, but […]

C02 Zero

Jacob Gaffney  in Organic, Biodynamic, Writer/Actor , , , , ,

During the course of InterWined’s struggle to get together some good wine entertainment, InterWined.com‘s writer, Jacob Gaffney, is sometimes asked to do other things. In this case, Gaffney recently wrote a few articles on Carbon Neutral wineries, published by Wine Spectator magazine (subscription recommended).
So now the Oregon Environmental Council is asking for Gaffney to speak […]

Late Update

Jacob Gaffney  in Writer/Actor

Sorry; went to a German wine tasting Monday night and was nursing a banged-up elbow injury last night. Truth be told, both were kinda bad. The elbow, well, that’s needed for the physical act of drinking. As for the German wine tasting, well, that was just physical. The tasting, which in itself was comprised of […]

InterWined: The Sitcom?

Jacob Gaffney  in Writer/Actor

Interwined: episode 1 (note: maybe start every episode with someone involved in the debacle giving some sort of exasperated apology)
Scene opens on older man, grey hair, very proper. He is identified by a label that appears on screen: “Sir Terrance Worthington-Hume, Creative Director, BBC”.
TWH: I don’t think anyone expected it, how could we? We had […]

Flip the Script

Jacob Gaffney  in Writer/Actor, White Wines, Riesling , ,

Drinking the 2004 Montana Marlborough Riesling £6 at Costcutter: Not Bad, but the grape needs a cooler climate. The warmer weather has crowded out the grace and mineral structure of its superior, German counterparts. Strong tropical fruits, pineapple, melon. Light and easy, with a somewhat interesting dry finish that lasts just long enough. 8.5.

On the Serious Tip (2)

Jacob Gaffney  in Writer/Actor

IDEA: Next time you’re making a cup of tea, don’t brew by the clock or by the colour, instead brew by the SMELL. Keep sniffing at that bag floating in the hot water until it stinks like a perfectly brewed cupa. Apply to other forms of food preparation where necessary.
Now, Jacob Gaffney has been called […]

Rejection

Jacob Gaffney  in Writer/Actor, InterWined TV

Today, my friends, was a day of complete rejection, capping a week of almost daily, brutal kicks to the crotch. Last week began typically enough. The weather in England returned to grey, and not a moment to soon, all of the sunshine was beginning to make me angry. Yes, a nice steady drizzle is the […]
