It’s too bad I was only recently introduced to this show. I love the energy, and of course the wine.

It would have been great to watch while it was still going on.

Gary’s passion originally inspired me to start my own website nononsensefitnesstips.com

    Many happy returns G. We’ll see you out here in SF for the Vayniac Cab Launch. Should be a good one. QOTD. You guys look like the commercial for financial management where the older guy comes back in time to visit himself before he was successful. Now we know what G will look like in a couple of decades. Sasha looks good, having grown up in the pristine forests of Belarus, but Gary, having grown up in the chemical corrider of Jersey…it’s probably best not to start and hurt his feelings on his birthday. Drink some good wine tonight.

    QOTD: As a guy, this is tough….Sasha Rules

    This has got to be a Classic WLTV episode, no doubt. It brought a tear to
    my eye both of you. I believe only in America this could have happened.
    Thanks for coming !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Happy Birthday Gary!

    Top 3 Sasha lines of the day:
    3. “That’s my boy!” (re: Kellen Clemens)
    2. “That’s good shit!” (re: Chambers Rosewood Muscat)
    1. “If you want to suffer, if you need something in your life to suffer and be aggravated every Sunday or upset or devastated, become a Jets fan.”

    Amen Sasha, amen.

    QOTD: I’ll go with Sasha on QPR.

  • Reeve

    Happy BDay! See you at Crushpad! Bring Sasha so we can truly answer the QOTD.

    Hey, Gary-

    It looks like you’re guaranteed to have a happy birthday. I got a big kick out of seeing the way you and your dad enjoy each other. Your dad’s a lot of fun. Too bad he’s the better looking one.

  • Jens

    Hi Gary,

    From a fellow Scorpio (20 Nov.) a toast and a Happy Birthday wish to you. Good luck throughout the next 32 years.

    Gary — Happy Birthday buddy. I just wanted to take a second to let you know that you and what you do and how you do it means a lot to a lot of us out here. Thanks for everything.

    QOTD: Yeah, I don’t really feel comfortable answering that.

  • Doug

    Happy Birthday from a 58 yr. old. Loved the episode…your dad is a kick. Hey, something to think about…When you’re 58 years old, your taste in wine will be different than it is today. I used to like smooth, unobtrusive wines when I was your age. Now I like them to taste like dirt and leather. Who knew? Anyway, thanks for all you do and here’s hoping you get 2000 comments.

  • Sasha all the way

  • Bonzo

    Happy birthday from Texas. You may outscore your dad in comments, but he’s still the original. Not a bad copy though!

  • Mark “Canadice”

    Gary – Happy Birthday and many more!
    Sasha – you must be so proud!

    QOTD – How can anyone possibly bring GV down on his bday? My answer: A coin flip. Is it wrong?

    But we know that “the show must go on” even if you don’t reach 1k. But you will.

  • Tom T.

    You two may have convinced me to try a cabernet with some chocolate. This was a really cool episode.
    Sometimes I wish I was 32 again.

  • QOTD: I guess I would say Sasha… You’re never going to e-mail me again, but I was shooting from the hiPP!

    I think you’re going to get your 1000 comments, and we all know the show will go on, because if you don’t Sasha will!

  • Sydney

    Great Episode. Happy Birthday.
