WHAT MADE SUSAN SONTAG SMILE?
She was a bit grumpy most of her life and would have made a good partner for the grumpy old man. Most photographs of her show her looking rather grim. This one (albeit at a much younger age) shows her smiling. It must have been the Chardonnay.

"Give me a chardonnay because I like them woody." Is she talking to Woody Allen? R (of RBB)
Let's assume for a minute that she was being vulgar. "Give me a chardonnay because I like them woody." should read: "Give me a chardonnay and I like them woody." or "Give me a chardonnay; by the way, I like them woody." or "Chardonnay seems to give blokes erections. Give him a chardonnay because I like them woody."

No she was talking about double basses.
No she just read the wine guy's blog.
