My two new weblogs

My activity here the last week has been minimal because I was busy creating two new personal weblogs.

Lucente wine labelLucente su Vino: This is my personal weblog on all things wine. I am doing this just for fun, so I don't expect my blogging will be excessive, probably no more than once or twice a week. I plan to talk about news in the wine world as well as reviews of wines I drink. This won't be a technical blog on wines, just my impressions in plain language. I may also talk about specialty beers and homebrewing as well as making wine at home. The URL for the new weblog is http://wine.lucente.org.

Italian passportJus Sanguinis: This is a chronicle of my quest for dual citizenship with Italy. Under Italian law, I have been a citizen since birth. However, because I was born in the United States, I have to go through the process of having my Italian citizenship registered with the proper authorities. This will also be a low traffic Web site as I will only be updating it as things happen in this long process. The name comes from the philosophy that permits this citizenship and is Latin for "Right of Blood" This weblog will probably have little interest outside myself or other Italian-Americans interested in having their dual citizenship recognized. Still, if you are interested, the URL is http://italian.lucente.org.

Links to the two new Web sites can be found in the right sidemenu on this page. Your login here will be valid there, as well.

 



Hey Tom,

Just wanted to get your opinion of the do nothing except wine city person (Derry Glenn)in the paper on Sun. I love how he has the time to take a photo op and complain about the long grass instead of grabbing a mower and mowing the grass to prove a point as an example for neighbors to be neighborly. It's probably one of his properties...lol. Just shows all he is interested in is hearing himself talk or in this case seeing what pub I can get today.

bengalbob,

Actually, he did mow his neighbor's lawn and then his neighbor told him next time he did that he would have him citied for trespassing!

Very funny.
