Someone Paid $812,000 for a Bottle of Wine

Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: a single bottle of 1945 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti sold for $812,000, a record driven by its last pre-replant vintage from century-old Burgundy vines, and John calls it the greatest wine he has tasted. A 19-year-old mustang named Gringo set a Guinness World Record by performing 38 tricks in 2:47 using clicker training and positive reinforcement. In North Sumatra, an orangutan finally used a canopy rope bridge installed to safely cross a road splitting a habitat of about 350 wild orangutans, easing risks like car strikes and genetic isolation. In Paris, a man won Picasso’s 1941 “Head of a Woman” via a 100-euro charity raffle that sold 120,000 tickets and raised 12 million euros for Alzheimer’s research. A Southwest Oakland flight was delayed after a passenger’s four-foot, 70-pound robot, Bebop, had its oversized lithium battery removed.
