QOTD – Playing in a golf tournament on Saturday. Drafting my mixed team on Sunday. Had our NL draft last week (8 teams). If yours is 8 teams, I can send you our draft results. Picked 7th, got David Wright followed by Carlos Lee. Also playing with my band Saturday night.

Great friday!
Happy birthday Susan!
QOTD:I´m going to Maracanã Stadium (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) to see the great Botafogo against the dirty Vasco (soccer, does any one like soccer? I know it´s not a favourite sport in US). Probably Romario, the great brazilian player, will make his 1000 goal. Let´s see.

QTOD – remaking some vacation plans. Was going to Indianapolis for big car show in June where you can drive your car on the big track. Shivers down the spine time. But work intervenes -must go to Lake Como Italy(not so bad). Now planning hot rod car show for Syracuse NY mid July which coincides With Watkins Glen Finger Lakes Wine Fest. 80 wineries. etc. However I loathe sweet wines. Can we prevail upon the grand Vaynerchuk to identify which wineries produce “decent” not sweet juice?

Why to cut the foil: Because if you don’t cut it and rip the cork out forcibly, then a piece of tin might find its way into your wine. When you pour the wine, the piece finds itself in your glass! And then drink the wine, you taste it and chew it. Have you ever chewed on tin foil? It’s awful. Ruins the wine. And that’s just no good.

QofD: I am in the Law School Library finishing my Paper and NJ Bar Application. All weekend long.

QOTD: Watching my Bruins (hopefully) chomp a gator tomorrow.

Nice mellow ep. today. Waiting to see Ciocco sit in for a session, on the WLTV tasting couch.

The wrist bands sliding all over the place…very funny! Maybe you should make golf club covers out of them. They’d be on courses all over the country!

QOD: Lawn work, play some corn hole w/ the fam, listen to rock & roll on the deck, burn some burgers, drink some vino and most definitely,absolutely, positively watch the FINAL FOUR..gO bUCKS!!!!!!!
Just for the heck of it, I was checking out my brackets @ the WL group site…I went to the last page and couldn’t find myself. I kept searching from back to front and finally found me on page 1 and in the top ten. Blew me away. Enjoy the weekend, all.

QOTD: Watching the Bruins trounce the Gators, placing my wine collection into the racks of my just completed wine cellar (finally), waiting by the mailbox for my WL wrist band, and popping the cork on a nice bottle to drink with tonight’s dinner cooked by the wife.

TGIF….. Bring on the weekend

Sea Urchin baby! If you ever make it out to L.A. go to Hirozen Sushi, they have amazing sea urchin. QOTD, going to a Pinot Nior tasting in Brentwood, should be a good one with Kosta Browne on the menu. Cheers!

What wines would one pair with Korean food? I’m like you Gary, I try everything.

QOTD: Watching Ohio State whip the Hoyas, watching my son-in-law Noah play in Jackson Center High’s annual alumni basketball program, going out to dinner with friends, and enjoying some nice wine.

Uni is the best so smooth and sweet! You should have it at the wine library with the wine tasting oh OK put it downstairs with the cheeses oh just add an addition just for wonderful foods!
Funny I was going to use my wrist band as a drip catcher on the wine bottles but I like your idea better. Please add a bunch more to my shipment
Oh and fro removing the foil I just screw right through them. I always get yelled at for that! BUT I still do it. But find myself pulling it off more often.
Oh as for the wrist band and you on the couch.
You should have taped a bunch to yourself so you didn`t have to so obviously prop them back on your crouch!
They did look like condoms. Can I say that?
As for the weekend is my busy time so I`m working!!!!!!!!

I will be spoiling a sick husband, missing the Passport to Woodinville (darn!), and hoping to find a TV station that is actually playing the final game of the women’s NIT basketball tourney. Maybe I’ll even be able to see shots of my parents when they scan the crowd (mom and dad have been going 3 hours early to secure the best seats in the house). My hometown team, the actual COWGIRLS (see WLTV episode #203) will be playing in front of a sold-out crowd in Laramie, Wyoming. This is amazing for a few reasons, not the least of which is that the tickets sold out in just a few hours. . . in spite of a blizzard that snowed in the entire region.

C’mon, cheer for the underdog — a group of gals playing college ball in the least populated state in the country. Go Wyo!

(once a Wyomingite, always a Wyomingite, even if I now live in Washington)

Just coming out of the closet after 100 episodes or so…..
Love the show, love the passion for wine and life!
And Gotta get my hands on some more Bordeaux…..
cheers

QOTD: Final Four & taking my daughter for a walk. Oh…and enter all that wine I bought at WL on Wednesday into my cellar software…

Great friday!

Thanks for the well wishes!!!!!
I also WISH I could go with you to Rio De Janeiro!!!
Sounds VERY cool!!!
🙂

You have many a wristband. QOTD: I’m mad busy in the hospital this weekend but catching an episode of WLTV tween admissions made my day. Thanks!

QOTD: Cleaning the detritus out of my yard, now that the weather’s nice + watching the Final Four.

Uni – who in their right minds eats fluorescent orange paste? I almost got sick sitting at a sushi bar in Japan the first time I tried it. Now fugu – you must try if you dare!

Quote: “They’re feeling the oak monster…they’re loving the oak monster….” Anyone else come away thinking they need a shower after watching this ep?

QOTD: Drinking WL wine and mowing my lawn, in that order. Watch out, toes….

Good to see questions come back. I missed the laid back Friday episodes.

QOTD: No plans yet. Hopefully I’ll be over my cold by then.

it’s the berries. Blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, cranberries, gooseberries, loganberries, cranberries, billberies, boysenberries, strawberries, huckleberries, mulberries, olallberries, elderberries, goji berries, and juniper berries. It’s the berries and it’s in the wine.
Salud!

I love lazy friday’s :'(

qotd: Studying pharmacology :'(

I am a medical bird

QOTD: FLying back to SF tomorrow after visiting my family in ct. It was my Dad’s birthday and he was recovering from a pretty major operation to remove cancerous growth inside his mouth. Amazingly they got it all and at the moment he’s all clear thank god! On sunday it’s my girlfriends b-day and I’m gonna do my best to cheer her up as her dog is dying of cancer. It’s been a crazy month. As Gary says it’s all about friends and family.

I loved watching the wristbands slide off the leather couch! And no, that is not what i’ll be doing this weekend. On Saturday, a surprise B-day party at a home where good wine will be found AND on Sunday another surprise B-day Party at a local restaurant. Not sure of the beverage selections there. So this will be a first with back-to-back surprise fiestas!
Gary, i’m leaving for Argentina on April 12 for 2 weeks and was wondering if you have been there, and if so, other than eating the outrageous beef and consuming copious amounts of Malbec, what else should I be doing? Any suggestions from the Vaniac Nation would be appreciated. Muchas Gracias.
