A drunk passenger on a flight happened to be seated next to a wine connoisseur who asked the stewardess for a glass of their finest red. Upon receipt of the wine, he proceeded to do his usual sniffing and swirling and peering and sniffing and eventually tasting, finally giving the wine the green light. The drunk quite impressed by all this asked him what it all meant. The connoisseur replied that he was such an expert that he could tell the age of any drop just by the taste. "For example, the wine I have in my glass right now was made from grapes plucked 6 years ago, and grown in the south-east of France from a vine that was planted circa 1930." Wow replied the drunk. A few minutes later he leant across the seat to the connoisseur and said to him " Would you mind tasting this and tell me how old it is? " The expert took the glass happy to oblige and looked at the contents closely. " Hmm unusual color, strange aroma," then putting the glass to his lips tasted some for a moment before spitting it out. " yuk that tastes like piss" " Yes I know " said the drunk " but how old am I"
