Back in the '60s, Santa Barbara County was known for screw-cap wines -- that's what you'd drink at a party after everything else was gone. In the last 20 years, the county has come into its own with wine-making on a very high scale.

Best stuff in the valley.

Ah, you've been to cholesterol corner.

We are going to have a party. Setting out back in April and trying to get the $27,000 to pay the balloon payment to save the building, I was really apprehensive about whether I was going to get that. I feel pretty good about the fire company, a lot better than I did earlier in 2005 when we stepped in there.

We requested that the people of the community donate a toy or two for admission into a dance party we held a few days before Christmas.

If one party will not negotiate, it's hard to characterize it as a negotiation.
