    QOTD: Being able to know what my friends are doing because of Twitter!

  • Suzanne

    My daughter was born on Friday the 13th, too. You’re right: It IS a lucky day.

    QOTD: The things that fascinate me are usually things that shouldn’t.

  • You really brought a mixed bag to the table today eh? Did you guys grab the Bonny Doon for today because of that discrepancy in scores or did it just work out that way? To me that’s just even more proof that trusting one’s own palate is always the way to go 🙂

    QOTD: The rate at which children can learn things. They are incredible and seem to act like knowledge sponges imo. I was able to take the training wheels of my stepsons bike one day, and within about 8 rides out with me he was able to ride into the single track trails with me on my mountain bike… truly fascinating!

  • Zinmaster

    QOTD: Old Knarled up vines that serve up grapes that can spend years in the bottle and somehow never seem to spoil. Who’d a thunk it? Thundercats and newbies unite! Zinmaster is a lurker no more!!!

    Too bad the sparkling wine wasn’t a favorite. I grew up in a family that loves Champagne and we’re always looking for something new to try. I’ll be looking forward to the sparking wine episode you mentioned.

    Also can’t wait for episode #300!

  • Pastafari Pirate

    QOTD: the various structural patterns of tree species. *shrug* Actually, as of about a month ago, when I saw my first WLTV episode, I am now fascinated with wines. I don’t have anywhere near the ability to distinguish wine tastes (or smells) as 98% of the rest of these folks on here, but I am LOVING all the learning that I’m absorbing here. You’ve made a topic (wines) that I previously thought was dull, an obsession. So I have to give you props, man. May the Flying Spaghetti Monster touch you with His noodly appendage.

    haha, nice Eli Manning imitation. (Caw! Caw! -Sept 16)

  • Kirk

    QOTD: The power of the human mind, emotions, and how so many of us truely forget how great it is to have the people in our lives that we take for granted on a daily basis. I’m also fasinated how having a positive experience in a place can connect total strangers…

  • Robin C.

    QOTD: My cats fascinate me – They look like dancers – every pose is graceful. Wine fascinates me – that living, changing quality really captures the interest. And Gary Vaynerchuk fascinates me – you never know what he’s going to say next. And other people and things that have the above-mentioned qualities fascinate me.

  • thabeav

    Fun show.

    It’s tough to criticize Marino (one of the best ever) when your recent QB’s have been Vinny T. and Chad P.

    A weak and inaccurate throw at the camera……THAT’s Chad P., not Eli. Eli would throw an accurate rocket…..to the free safety (Mott).

    Sucks that the show won’t be live, but I applaud your restraint. It would really suck if it crashed during my party (full of potential new Vaynaics). Perhaps if you hadn’t spent the the last six months on an airplane……….
    Does your family still recognize you? You travel more than Scottie Pippen.

    I miss the Iron Sheik.

    Were those thundercats on the the bucket pro-creating?

  • Mudd

    QOTD: I’m fascinated by history, which in turn fuels my love of old stuff! I love antiques like old books, letters, marbles, art pottery, stamps, sports cards, furniture(Arts and Crafts period!), pipes, tobacco tins, cigar bands, rugs, photos, tobacco cards, movie posters, paintings, sculptures.
