Darren "Dirty Deed" Wise wrestles his last match this weekend in York Township. (Fond farewell.)

See The "World Famous" Lipizzaner Stallions Saturday at the York Expo Center. (Read our Dressage dictionary)

Meet York rock act Hello Hawk. (Hint: They like Craigslist and high-fives.)

Get a preview of Thanksgiving Eve events. (Party planning.)

The UnCork York Wine Trail is offering a new event called "Wine Just off the Vine."

Ten wineries along the trail will offer behind-the-scenes look at the harvest and how a grape transforms from vine to bottle. Sample Nouveau and fresh-pressed wines during the tour, which is 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Nov. 20-22.

Tickets for the tour are $10 and include a wine glass. Participants can use tickets at any participating winery during the event to get 10 percent off wine. Collect stamps along the way to become eligible for exciting UnCork York prizes.

Participating wineries include: Adams County Winery, Allegro Vineyards, Cullari Vineyards, Four Springs Winery, Moon Dancer Vineyard & Winery, Naylor Wine Cellars, Reid's Orchard & Winery, Seven Valleys Vineyard & Winery, Tamanend Winery, West Hanover Winery (Photo: YDR File)

Ya snooze, ya lose. Perez Hilton reported that all 2,150 midnight Friday "New Moon" screenings have sold out. Take a deep breath. It looks like a few movie theaters (Regal 13 at the West Manchester Mall included) added more showings. But tickets probably won't last long. Fans can also catch "Twilight" at 9 p.m. Thursday at Regal 13. Look for FlipSide before the show. We'll be chatting with fans and tweeting. What are your premiere plans?

We figured that most people didn't watch "Saturday Night Live" last weekend since the Black Eyed Peas performed. (Ugh.) Unfortunately, that means you missed celebrity guest January Jones, aka Betty Draper from "Mad Men." In the segment below, she re-assumes her '60s housewife role for a spot-on parody about how gender and racial stereotyping were part of throwing "the perfect party." (We love the to-do list and punch recipe.)

Five weekend highlights.
(Thank goodness for selective memory.)

Bar-hopped in Harrisburg Thursday. (But Tim Warfield was nowhere to be found.)

Attended an Arlington apartment party. (Somebody spiked the cider. Yum.)

Visited the new Court of Valor memorial. (I also got a Civil War history lesson at Prospect Hill Cemetery.)

Saw the Eagles loose yet again. (I still miss those Phils.)

Consoled myself with the movie "Clue." (Nothing like a little murder/mystery to brighten the mood.)
