A Study in Merlot

Hail fellows, well met, greetings, salutations and thank you for attending this study in Merlot, a chronicle of man's passion for excellence, and a compendium of the finest epicurean pursuits in the history of history. As Oscar Wilde observed: "Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation." As I hope you shall see in these studies, Merlot is certainly not "most people" in Wilde's sense.

Our Communication from Dr. Okuna...

Dear Voignier and Kind readers,

Luck, that most fickle and finicky lady has once again visited our watercraft, on our way to Puerto Rico as we pass the straits of Delaware, where we shall be disembarking for lunch and fuel, a none too de minimus expense on our journey south this years. What follows is a highly confidential matter, concerning a leading African political figure who has made us an outstanding offer.

While we are not inclined to count our chickens before they hatch, as it were, we do like the sound of his offer to pay us well from a secret slush fund he garnered while leading south Africa, before misfortune burrowed her way into his life, deposing him from office.

Please review these upcoming business deal, which will serve to finance our start up expenses, which we line up industry backing and raise additional capital for our chain of Box Wine Stores from Key West to Portland, Maine.

Regards,
I remain,
Merlot

My name is Okuna Williams the adviser to the Labour minister and the
chief campaign manager for the AFRICAN NATIONAL CONGRESS the rulling
party in south Africa.

Some of the big wigs have secretly declared their intentions to contest
the presidential elections under our great party after the ex-deputy
president was deposed from power and from all indications one of the prominent
minister is highly tipped to assume power since the current president
will not be eligible to contest.

For electoral expenses the party has mapped out some substantial
amount of amount money in us$ and a couple of us campaign officials have
concluded plans to part with some of this fund for our private use and

since the fund is in an escrow account here in south Africa we will
require the assistance of a foreign partner to help us execute this
transfer to his personal or company nominated account anywhere in the
world until our arrival for disbursement.

If you are interested in assisting us in this transaction, get back to
me via my email contact, so that we can negotiate percentage and put the
process in motion as every modus orpandi is completed.

on your part as long as you will follow our instructions or that of our
financial adviser whom I will introduce to you in due time.
