I Was Wrong About sake2me!

I finally got to try a bottle last night and the stuff is pure genius!

You put it in your hand and something comes over you without even tasting the beverage. The label seduces you and you can't control the urge to hold, embrace and lick the bottle.



You feel like you've joined an exclusive club and all those exotic oriental flavors make your body temperature rise. You hope no one is looking because it is an intensely private and sensual experience. I was happy my oncologist was not around, because the sake2me experience might be too much emotion for someone with a brain tumor who is still on chemotherapy. But I could not stop myself.



Before you know it, beautiful women come toward you, entranced by the elixir you are holding in your glass. They too, cannot stop themselves. Without knowing it, their tongues reach out to the sake2me. All inhibitions have been set aside, the only thing that matters is this daring new product from the Vine Connection people.



It was an amazing experience and I can't thank Ed Lehrman and Nick Ramkowsky enough for inventing this product. These guys are geniuses!

Let me also make this clear -- I am a happily married man and I will not let sake2me come between me and my wife of 25 year, even though it is obvious that crafty use of sake2me can have powerful and overwhelming effects on unsuspecting women.


So, what does it taste like you ask? It doesn't really matter, the goal is the package and the product, the overwhelming experience, the tongue in the air.

Yes, it tastes like the the bottom of a slushy gone rancid. Yes, I would ask the guy at the 7-11 for a refund without all the alluring packaging. But who really cares?

The point is to get your tongue out there with everyone else. Suspend your critical instincts and enjoy youself!

My life changed last night. I will never be the same.



I gotta get me some!

Everyone's doing it!

You'll never be an Ad man.

This is why you don't work with producers.

Joe Dressner - Captain Tumor Man!


Hi, I'm Joe Dressner the famous wine importer and I have brain cancer!

I already have a wine blog and frankly wine is such a luxury business that I hate to mix my cancer problems with my wine observations. I think it would be a general downer for the lifestyle crowd out there.

Furthermore, we in the wine trade always claim there are tremendous health benefits to drinking wine. I've already had cardiovascular bypass surgery over eight years ago and now I got a tumor aggressively rattling in my brain. My colleagues in the glamorous wine industry want me to keep it quiet.

So, I've started this wonderful new blog to discuss wine, brain tumors, my life and to give you hot tips on handling the cancer stricken around you. There will also be practical wine/radiation pairings when I start radiation therapy and chemotherapy next week.

Having brain cancer means I might both physically and intellectually decline. So, I will be using this blog as a venue to pursue petty vendettas against relatives, acquaintances and people in the wine trade.

I might also lose touch with reality and say things that are not true or are only half true. The important thing is to have fun and enjoy this rare and precious time in my life.

One of my pet vendettas is my cousin Dr. Barbara Hirsch. Dr. Barbara Hirsch is a very important Great Neck Endocrinologist, who was raised and nurtured by my parents. Dr. Hirsch waited until my father was near death and my mother was suffering from a rare neuromuscular disorder, to write them a seven page letter denouncing them for being horrible to her for the entirety of her life! Despite my concerns, Dr. Hirsch still refuses to apologize.

Last night, I drank a beautiful bottle of Bourgueil Clos Sénéchal 2005 from Pierre Breton. It was sublime and reminded me that I used to be healthy. Not only that, the vineyard used to be there before I existed. It exists independently of my having cancer and will continue to exist. You ought to buy some.

August 2009 Postscript: Not only does it exist independently of my cancer, it also exists independently of Louis/Dressner Selections. After 18 years, they have dumped us for Kermit Lynch. Oh well. At least I'm alive!
