Do y'all remember the US Supreme Court decision from awhile back that everyone thought was going to rid the country of stupid wine shipping laws? Well, so why can I still not ship a bottle of wine to Montana? Who knows. Its beyond my comprehension, and I did go to law school.
Well, at least there is a bill in the Washington State Senate right now which would allow out-of-state online wine retailers to ship directly to consumers in Washington.

Since this is, you know, an anoymous blog, I'd like to go on record as saying that I have ordered and received wine already from out-of-state online retailers (and I don't mean wine.com - they're a Washington business), so, was that like a felony or something?
Anyhow, please support this legislation so I can stop participating in illegal activities. Or, not, since no one is apparently enforcing the current restriction. And if you need to find me, feds or local law enforcement officers, I'm right here at (address deleted).
