Wow, slipped the "irish wine" past you.

Alright memory card, whatever that is. What happened to disks?

I have a Brunello picked up in Montalcino...but I think you'd prefer something more Gallic?

Brunello is very nice.

I'll check which kind of memory cards work with my computer:

You could burn to disk but with a memory card it can scan right to that, Or pick up a USB flash drive. Probably better because then it fits all computers.

Actually, it's a good idea to scan them into your computer anyways even if you're not making a photo book right away. For me, I'm making a slideshow/movie to show at their banquet so it's kind of a bonus to only have to scan them once and use them for two different projects. It's more organized than flipping through a million albums of old photos.
