Swallow Sidecars called their cars ‘SS Cars’ (ancestor of Jaguar) but dropped the name in 1945 due to the connotation with Hitler’s regime.

Here is why I remain a lurker. Who wants to listen to :
Continuous banter from Brandon
Stallion referring to himself in the third person
Kahunaâ??s moronic posts (Hey Kahuna, you said if we discussed politics you refused to post, so I say we start discussing Bush on a daily basis)
Susanâ??s attempt at being moderator (are you kidding, hasnâ??t TimF posted before? Did you just start watching last week?). Congratulations on being number 100 and 200.
Idiots like Craig asking for 10% off
SS Chris brag about his SS (nice work man, but donâ??t you get enough unsolicited thanks? Happy Birthday if that is what you want to hear). I really donâ??t care what your screen name is or should be.
Bishop of Norwood, passing the port, etc.

Gary, WLTV is awesome to watch, but I am officially stopping reading the comments. Sorry, there is some decent info, but the ridiculous banter has overwhelmed the few decent posts. I liked it better with double nickels!

Oh yeah, Long time viewer, first (and last) time poster.

As the original coiner of the “SS Chris” nickname, I feel obliged to comment. GV would certainly note the pop culture connection between the creator and curator of the WLTV spreadsheet and a certain vessel that sailed on a three-hour tour. Note also the spirit of WLTV in light of the following:

“The name “S.S. Minnow” was actually named after Newton Minow who was chairman of the FCC in 1961. He made a speech and called television “America’s vast wasteland.” The boat was named after the man who, Sherwood insists, “ruined television.” Minow gave networks authority and placed the power of programming in the hands of the networks. He did this after Gilligan’s Island was started.”

GV places power in the hands of VAYNiacs!

Aussie,

I stopped reading about 10 episodes ago when this crap started

Aussie…sorry to disappoint.
Volcom…if you stopped reading then…………..

I don’t post frequently, but I do read the comments, and I find it easy to gloss over comments that aren’t wine related. And for the record, most of those people whom Aussie malignes (as does, implicitly, volcom) above almost always have a comment on anyone’s posted wine question or comment or the QOD (and if you don’t know what that is, then you really have read many comments).

Aussie…sorry to disappoint.
Volcom…if you stopped reading then…………..

So, if you want to talk about wine, go ahead. And if you want to talk about something else, go ahead. For better or worse this is what this blog is, a community. Not run by a dictator, it is free form. If you want dictatorship go visit the RNC website.

volcom…..I thought you stopped reading 10 episodes ago?
