    QOTD: I’ll call it right now…Teachworth Cabernet…I’ve been posting about them off & on for about a year. “Bob” is set to taste their wine for the first time in about 3-4 months….I’m calling them the next “Scarecrow” or other “Cult” wine….producing only 105 cases out of 2 acres in 2002 they are set to become the next “cool hidden find” in Napa

    Has Gary rated a wine 100 points on the show? I know he gave a Spanish wine 100. Help me out. Or I can scroll the spreadsheet. Man I want some Angelus

    QOTD: Best deal ever: I was at a local market and they had Flora Springs 1998 Trilogy in their discount basket for $15.00. At the time, it retailed for about $50 and could stand up to a $100 wine with it’s foil tied behind it’s back.

    Hi again Gary,

    It’s hard to watch you enjoying so much cheese without running to the grocery to supplement my supply!

    Great QOTD! As an avid E-Bayer I’m also on the lookout for great steals and deals and have fortunately found my share. Some of the highlights include an original hardcover Boy Scout Manual from 1910 and some boxes of out-of-print classical and garage-band LPs (many of the records signed by the artists or conducters). Let’s hear it for treasure hunting!

    the big cheez

    Gary,

    I’ve been meaning to tell you this…try Red Yeast Rice for the cholesterol issue. You can find it at any vitamin shop or even costco.com. It works wonders and is an all natural alternative to the drugs. My doctor put me on it after my thyroid issue and it dropped my levels from 240 to 178 in about 6 weeks. Now I take two a day and I eat all the cheese I want…need to in my line of work.

    Give it a try…’cause cheese is sooooo good with wine!!

    I’m behind in the episodes, but keep ‘em coming…they are so informative and entertaining!!

    Great show, G!!! Its good to see you let a few curse words out. We have seen you almost say them plenty of times!

    QOTD: I rarely find bargains. :-(

    QOD. I don’t know about the best deal but I can tell you the worst. This time last year I was living in Texas, having enjoyed the 60 degree winter. I got accepted to grad school at Rutgers with a nice fellowship. Seemed like a great deal at the time but come February I was sitting in snow, sleet, and every other kind of miserable cold in the world.

    I LOVE cheese Gary, so episodes including that creamy goodness is always appreciated. I like stinky cheese, too, but I don’t know if I would go so far as enjoying “ass stinky cheese.” :D

    Gary…the weight lifting program must be going pretty well because I see you only had about two buttons fastened on your shirt and were flashing your chest through the whole show. (lol)

    QOTD: My wife calls me frugal Fred and I’m always in pursuit of a bargain. One of my more recent bargain finds was a camera package including a Nikon N80 body, three Nikon lenses, a teleconverter, 4 filters, two photography books, 27 rolls of film and 3 sets of batteries for $200. The whole package was worth well over a grand.

    GV, Did you say, “and I’m talkin’ ASS-stinky cheese.”? You’re F-ing NUTS.

    I saw 2 different shows recently that highlighted a great cheese producer up in Vernon, NJ called “Bobolink Dairy” (also some awesome breads).

    Ever heard of them? Does WL ever carry cheeses from them?

    Be sure to tell us (on an Episode) what you did with the rest of the wine…did you share? with whom?

    I earlier said best bargain better be the 2 cases of ‘05 Bordeaux I purchased from WLTV, make that 3 cases.

    Other great bargains: Anything you can purchase from a big-city barber. Don’t know where they find these deals, but don’t care to ask or want to really know. Jewelery, watches, cameras and season tickets and while you’re at it take a little off the top of the ears.

    Ciao

    It’s about time you enjoyed your wine like a man and didn’t spit!! Plus, the finish is always better if you don’t spit. $250 on futures, eh? I guess I’ll have to wait until we have one at a tasting here.

    So, QOD: I went to a thrift store in a small town called Cresco, Iowa and got a 100% Camel Hair winter jacket–with absolutely no problems and was the perfect size to wear with my suit for a grand total of $4.00. Yes…FOUR dollars. Freakin’ rad.

    OK, see you later,
    GO BEARS!!

    It’s felt like Friday as of Monday, so your couch-time seems appropriate! Nice!

    As for the previous and now infamous sibling comment, that’s what makes “Live TV” all the livelier. No apologies needed - you probably had some folks in West Virginia on your side (joking here - please no angry posts from any kind people from WV…).

    I’m from WI, so gotta love the cheese theme here.
