After seeing the likes of Pedrosa on TV, who knew a Spaniard could have a sense of humor?

Besides these comedians, I mean....

When you are supposed to use the same picture too. You better practice that.

Rumor I heard was 1200cc with the V5, but if it looks as ugly as that picture, I still wouldn't buy one ... even if they existed I mean.

We've got senses of humor... we gained them back at the end of the 15th century.

You might want to move to Spain, even monkeys have rights over there.

Yeah, but a lot of those guys have been thoroughly de-socialized in the NBA.

Pretty good... However, I didn't recall reading a lot of humorous literature about the sinking of the Armada or the plague. Might have lost something in translation. But you have since made up for it by raising up the funniest of all within the historically long line of romance language comedians..... Jose Jimenez!!!!!

After what they did to the Spanish language on this side of the pond, I think it lost all the romance...

Bota bags, if made of the real thing, which I believe is part of a cows stomach, need to be treated for a few days before you can use it. I might be wrong though. That's something I did not expect from you, in any case.

Careful when visiting Spain, you might never leave, or swear to never come back...

I've just looked it up here
LaTienda.com - Hand-Made Bota Wineskin - Curved Traditional Pitch Lined Interior

Some need to be cured some (with latex linings) don't. And I was wrong about the cows stomach. Seems like, at least this ones, are made of goat's skin. They are very cool in any case.

I got a made in Spain goatskin one, lined with latex. $6.99 at the local surplus store.

I could've more easily dumped the bottle in a BPA-free Nalgene bottle, but it just wouldn't have the same cachet.

Ha! That tres cool pitch lined one would be the deal...but I wasn't nearly that motivated. Plus that would've required planning...

El cheapo is good enough for this go around.


What was this thread about again?

Love it. "Available in black".

Thanks Henry Ford.

I'd buy a used one anyway.
