    Mark Lemke! 2nd base for the Bravos for quite a while … Hmmm, baseball v. wine analogies … who would be an oakmonster, bringing the thunder lumber? Nah, football is better!
    QOTD: “MadMen” on AMC Thursday night.

    Still watching when I have time, I love your show, I just wish I could get the same wine variety and price as you… Oh well, at least I get to watch you drink good wine.
    QOTD: I watch one tv show a week, prison break, with my husband, adrenaline and testosterone,an always excellent combo.

    QOTD: Ok, so its not a new show, but Charlie Rose is scheduled to have Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on his show tonight. He’s generally a tough interviewer so it could be interesting. http://www.charlierose.com/home

    GV- A couple things. I thought the appearance on Ellen was great. She worked with you and I thought you guys had a good dynamic. Great show. Second, Tara and I were at Wine Library for the first time yesterday!!! We we’re really hoping to see you and kinda bummed that we didn’t. We were down from Rhode Island to NJ for a wedding and stopped by. The store is incredible. So much nicer than anything in the Providence area. Finally, I tried to fill out the survey for Vanyiac Cab and it told me I had already filled out the survey. Thing is, I haven’t. Can it be fixed? We’d love to contibute. Greg

  • QOTD: Hands down the only thing you need to watch is The Office premiere!

    FFPS (Funny Flavor Profile Story): I know you bring up Big League Chew as a flavor, so I had to tell you this story. I was at Applebee’s and got the crispy orange chicken bowl and the banana berry smoothie. One piece of chicken followed by the smoothie and BAM…Big League Chew…exactly…I’m serious. My friends made fun of me until they tried it and they couldn’t believe that that was the only way to describe it as well. It was hilarious. I suggest giving this a try for yourself! Hopefully it’s not just my Applebee’s 🙂

    Great show today, really quite interested in trying the Sequoia Grove now, looks like a trip for this weekend. QOTD: CSI (the original one), it’s pretty much the only show i’m definitely making time for this week.

    QOTD: Ken Burns – The War
    Shocked about the Oroppas.
    Big league chew sounds intriguing. Do I need it to refine my palate?

  • Vinsant

    QOTD: Gotta watch “Hero’s” because if you like the Thundercats you gotta like Hero’s.
    And thanks for the tip on the Sequoia Grove. It’s tough to find a top notch but affordable Napa Cab these days. I agree that in general they are overpriced.
