    Are you freaking kidding me? Full Metal Jacket, while the ending was not as explosive as the start, did not fall off at all, the summation of the story was profound, just not as exciting as the start.

    Good, dunk the Parkerized bas****s ;-) ! Last St.Emil I had was again a Clos Fourtet, mmm, that one was nice. Another movie that started great but really came to nothing in the end: Kingdom of heaven. Beginning just tremendous, the end … well, it sucks.
    Anyway, QOTD: Snickers, definitely, but I want to try the new tastes. Didn’t hae one yet.

    QOTD: This is disgusting, but I’ve always loved Snyders Cheese Curls or the softer Cheetos.

    Sorry I got to this late. My favorite snack is whole unroasted cashews. What I eat are pretzels, particularly with sesame seeds. Or most any cheese. Or Snickers.

    QOTD: Doritos – Toasted Corn Flavor (the original)

    Has anyone heard of a movie called Lost Highway?
    It starts out really spooky and intrguing, and when it’s
    over you have no idea what the hell happened.
    Drink heavily before pressing play if you want to enjoy that one!

    Nice job Kahuna! Jumpman, yes, of course.

    Wow, Gary, that’s a damn good picture of you on the VLOGHOT site!

    You know, I remember seeing at least one episode (back in the 40-60 range) in which your name was printed on the screen w/ a big fat “C” before the “K”… tsk, tsk.

    QOD: I guess I have a pretty severe oral fixation because I’m CONSTANTLY snacking. I eat chips, I suck on hard candy, I smoke a pipe, and sometimes when I’ve got nothing else that does the trick I sip on Worchestershire sauce or hot sauce or even wasabi. So, picking a single favorite snack is difficult for me, but there are a few that I return to again and again:

    Candy: sassafras hard candy, Jujubes (not too sweet to eat in quantity), chocolate-covered pretzels
    Snackfood: pretzel sticks, pistachios
    Healthy: fresh spinach leaves dipped in homemade dressing, celery w/ peanut butter

    Day late but I made it
    QOTD Old Dutch Ketchup potato chips, unfortunately I can’t get them in the states so I have to pay through the nose and get them off of ebay

    The very first bottle of wine I dropped in front of the wine store in Austin, TX in 1968 was a 1966 St. Emilion. When the shopkeeper saw that he gave me another bottle of the same thing so that started a long warm fuzzy with St. Emilion. Still my preference over most other wines from the Bordeaux region and usually a better price break. Thanks for the heads up on the Lamande. Favorite snack is anything with cheese and I found my youngest son’s old Nintendo game and it was labeled Jumpman. Oh well way too late.

    Gary, dropped you a vote on Valleywag. But don’t get the wrong idea about me. :) Our former PR person was in a contest on that site. Great stuff there.

    Wow, Veoh muffed your name spelling twice – once on the video, once on the site. Oh well. Still a very cool video. I’d love to see you do an episode or two inside the main part of your store. Maybe on the main floor, and let a customer walk up and try one of the wines with you, to compare notes. Or maybe shoot upstairs in one of those cool winery-looking rooms. Might be a fun change-up.

    By the way, Jumpman. Does comment 101 win? Or just comment 1?

    Hey Gary enjoyed the show and I have already voted for you so I hope you win. It appears at this point that you have a sizeable lead on your competitors.

    QOTD: Chips and salsa

    QOD: Cereal is the best snack ever! I could eat it for every meal. Gary are there any wines out there that are a perfect match with cereal? I’d be in heaven!!!!

    Nice St. Emillion episode. I just drank the 2005 Chateau Teyssier last night. Best $10 bordeaux I ‘ve had. What a steal.

    miniQOTD – Apolalypse Now has the worst, most incoherent ending of any movie that started great.

    QOTD – White Cheddar Natural CHEETOS

    Gary,

    Your starting to see through Mr. P…I like that.

    What is a Bordeaux? Is that some type of wine or something?

    QOTD: creamed corn with A1 Steaksauce.

    “she’s into pinot…perfect.”

    Gary, I think you are going to have a hard time beating that Greg Rose guy!!

    I love St. Emilion wines. Monbousquet is one of my favorites because it offers great value year-after-year. Your comments about the sand at Larmande reminded me of Sam Kinison’s bit on sand.

    QOD: Favorite snack is probably Ritz crackers with Jif Crunchy peanut butter and a big glass of milk. I’ll go thorough a whole sleeve of crackers and several glasses of milk in the same sitting. Another favorite, and this sounds a bit odd, is Triscuit crackers with peanut butter on them and sharp cheddar cheese melted on top of the peanut butter. Try it sometime and I bet you’ll like it!! Oreo cookies or my wife’s homemade chocolate chip cookies dunked in milk is another great one.

    I love a variety of cheeses with wine. When I’m not drinking wine I turn into somewhat of a cookie monster for chocholate chip cookies. However….

    CHOCHOLATE CHIP COOKIES AND LBV PORT ROCK!!!!

    I’ve never had a Saint Emilion…Looking forward to trying it. I’m off to put the Chat Larmonde in my shopping cart.

    QOTD:
    Gouda cheese on Triscuits.

    Or queso: a can of Rotel tomatoes melted with a pound of Velveeta, served with tortilla chips. I don’t know how widely available Rotel is, but it is a staple food here in south Texas.

    Gary, what happened to your hair? ;)
