One wonders if the Lord slams down a few at the bar with commoners.

On UST and booze, there's a big locker at the DC Capital Grillie with the name UST on it. I've not pressed my nose against the bars to see what's in there, but given the price of bottles at that place, I wonder what the REAL wine bill is for execs at UST. Business dinners at the CG won't be cheap, even without the wine. Interesting. On UST and booze, there’s a big locker at the DC Capital Grillie with the name UST on it.

At $9 a bottle, I don't think I could drink the 333 bottles of wine a year. ($5,000 * .60/9). The bizzare part is I have a weird picture of a bunch of guys chewing Skoal (their primary business) and drinking white wine. It must be part of their health awareness plan due to the riboflavins.
