gv——- i drew a blank. jett

Almost forgot, we also got pretty good at drawing a hand with the middle finger extended. Did anyone else or everyone else do this?

Here’s a request. There’s a bunch of cheap ($6) Romanian wines available here in Estonia. The brand name is “Dreamer”. And for $6, they’re pretty good. In fact, the Dreamer Premiere Harvest Pinot Noir is the only pinot noir you’ll find at a regular supermarket here. That’s also *the* wine that made me appreciate wines in the first place. (I have a 2003 bottle on my shelf here right now.)

So if you could do an episode on the Dreamer brand of wines, or just Romanian wines in general, that would be great. I’d love to see what you think of them.

Enough with the whites already,sheeeesh!!!

Did any of you ever waste an entire pad of paper drawing a stick man walking across the bottom edge of the paper?

QOTD: I drew mushrooms…

89 = prime!

No Alsace? First PG I ever had, long ago, was a Zind-Humbrecht from Alsace which was, indeed, crisp acidic and light … and then I cracked open the very same bottle several years later and wonderful things had happened.

QOD: bah, I can’t draw. But that’s why the Xerox machine is our friend.

No longer a lurker am I !!!!!!!

Love the show. I put it on my iPod and watch it during the commute on the way home. It gets me in the mood to try something in my cellar.

Keep up the good work, a little bit of everyone really adds up.

i’m excited! looking for some new summer juice

Ah, Pinot Gris, probably my favorite white wine. To me, most Pinot Gris have a tootie-fruity like aroma, almost like bubble gum. And that leads me to the QOTD:

When I was a kid I drew cartoon-like monsters in school, imitating some pictures on bubble gum collecting cards, available back in the mid-60s, that featured comical fantasy monsters. Wonder if that is why I like the bouquet of Pinot Gris now ??

I tasted this wine last week and couldn’t agree with you more. I liked it, but it really came up short. BTW, couldn’t place the mustard, but I think you’re right, still not sure. Definitely a strange combo of mellon and something….good, crips pretty clean, but not 90+

qotd – stick figures and geometric shapes. cant do anything else.

btw, talking about the mac murray ranch. sorry.

QOTD; a detailed map of my secret south american hideway fortress.
oh and my fav redhead; Jill St. John in Diamonds are Forever The 1971 version.
i’m not excited about pinot gris anymore.

My 0.02 cents. Just because you told me I had to. Nothing to say other than that. Can’t wait to see theloopy Gary show up. Have a great vacation.

@Gary V. – You know I love the show and I watch it religiously but – man – can you please open up a thesaurus and look-up “intriguing”; you use that word so much it’s stating to loose all of its meaning. Seriously! Let’s look for some alternatives, huh?

A(nswer)otD: I drew dragons and skulls on my desk all the time. I don’t know how many times I got busted for that. You’d think I’d learn my lesson, but no…

Nice shirt. Have I seen it before?
Just bustin’…..
The Pinot Gris are drinking better for the hot weather than those pinkies (Rose wines) you served up a few days ago.

QOTD I drew football helmets with my colored pencil set.

QOTD: Like Randy B above, I drew Army men in pitched battles, planes dropping bombs. On occasion I’d try to draw a bunny or a hornet. Couldn’t….

Gary,
I drew flowers. Little daisies everywhere. And bunnies.
Thanks for the pinot gris episode.

I always agree with those ABC (anything but Chardonnay) people, and tell them I also have a blanket predjudice for all versions of that varietal, instead enjoying a nice glass of Klevner, Feinburgunder or Morillon.

I guess one COULD do about 3 minutes of stand up comedy on that. I’d be laughing!

Maybe it’s weird, but one of the aspects I’m getting in most of Pinot Gris is “bread crust”. Not that american-style white sliced sandwich, which they do call bread, but good-old european bread (e.g. http://www.marions-kochbuch.com/food-pic/black-forest-country-bread.jpg). Am I the only one getting such an aspect?

Magnificent performance with that Grey Poupon skit. Bravo!
QOTD: I remember drawing Smurfs and rainbows.

QOTD: whoever is sitting around me
