    You know your vintages and meritages. If you don't already have a small wine collection, you should start amassing one.

    I used one hint - since the 'hints' really are 'the answers' I stopped.
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    I don't drink wine. Give me a beer quiz.

    There are certain people who I expect to "ace" or do-well on EVERY test on the forum, because anything less would equate to admission of a fault. You're one of those guys.

    I would do terribly in a quiz about nascar or hunting or fly fishing or a whole host of topics. I do tend to drink wine fairly frequently and have done so for longer than you've been alive young fella....I would be ashamed to have not picked up a fair amount of expertise on that subject. I would probably kick ass on a quiz about scotch, or golf, or the boston red sox... and I would not even bother to enter quizzes about those myriad of other topics I know little about.

    btw...you are one of those quys who I would expect to make catty little remarks like this from the peanut gallery about other people's scores here, because anything less would equate to an admission that your powers as omnipotent and omnipresent admin and moderator were less than absolute.
