I actually watched the ep b4 commenting, even tho it showed “0 comments” when I first started it (not a popular concept in Vani-ville…)
Fun show! Mostly, loved seeing the awesome store again (I know you’ve done a couple others but this one really took a stroll through the racks)! I could spend 3 straight days in there!
QOtD-the grocery I shop at has a pretty good wine buyer and every June the “mother store” for the chain does a sort of inventory re-direction and makes them clear out certain wines to make room for new selections. So they do these “close-out” deals. A couple years ago they determined the store couldn’t sell dessert wines any longer so all the Jackson Triggs Ice Wine was sold off for $7.99 a bottle! That was a fun shopping spree – I cleaned off the shelf!

Gary-

Wow! I was totally blown away by how great you did on the blind tasting. You were right on with the prices except for the Zin.;)

Damn Boy- I am impressed completely- I would love to make fun of you, it hurts me to not make fun of you- especially because I thought for sure you thought the big bottle was Clone 5 until you poured it-

Awesome job – nailing the Petite Verdot was a huge- as I have had that wine and it usually drinks like a cab for sure.

Ahhhh… this flash player is getting REALLY annoying when it can’t buffer enough. It seems to buffer only like 4 seconds worth, so it’s constantly pausing all the time. Especially when the video is just posted and so many people are downloading it, so traffic is high. I liked it better when there was the option to view the quicktime one… at least with that one I could let it download and then watch the whole thing at once, instead of 5 second pieces. I want to pull my hair out…
