    QOTD: In 2008 we will definitely see a great deal more of Gary’s portmanteaux. I also predict we will see Gary taste a lot more wine. Also, Mott will get a raise. Additionally, loyal Chicago vayniacs will begin making a yearly pilgrimage to WL after they can no longer order online, though they will just have to put down the bottle long enough to pick a date.

  • Achilleas

    Great show – the only thing I regret is not being able to buy a lot of the wines you show as I live in Cyprus.

    QOTD
    —-
    1. TVWL continues to kick some serious derriere in 2008
    2. LINK IT UP MOTT T-shirts become a great success and exceed sales of 100,000
    3. GV will do the show in different countries
    4. GV will become a daddy – baby will have bottle shaped milk bottle to prepare him for later life
    5. WLTV will give away a $10,000 bottle of wine sponsored by a company
    6. The Jets will win a few games

    Keep on Bringing the Thunder!

  • Awesome show…would love to find that chardonnay to gift to some staunch Kendall-Jackson lovers!

    QOTD: The Thunder Show is going to be picked up and syndicated for television…no guesses as to which network, but you have a personality that will not/should not be confined to the Internets!

    P.S. “boughten”…*shudder* (way worse than goosenberry!!)

    Judging from the last several guest hosts you had I think you will share the mic more in 2008.
    We are all looking forward to the Christmas wine tasting with you

    QOTD: You will be doing the same great show as always, if not better. And, of course, be the number one show on the Internet, hands down.

    QOTD: Much more of the same, guests, visits, and contests. Maybe multiple shows with other people reviewing other alcoholic beverages.

    QOTD: My prediction- GV successfully lobbies legislatures to get laws changed so he can offer FREE shipping to all 50 states, and to celebrate, he comes to my place to help me drink that honkin’ 6L bottle I’m gonna win next week. or not.
    PEACE

    Great show, Gary!! I liked how you kicked it up a Notch! SO this is my 3rd post with many more to come… Does that still make me a lurker? Hmmmmmm….. QTOD-Not only will the “Thunder Show” be a huge hit online, it will be aired in mini episodes on the Food Network and on NBC… And maybe you’ll take Emeril’s place on the Food Network! Oh yeah Babe!!

  • jfoobar

    QOTD: I predict a recurring guest host. I predict Mott will get his own sitcom. I predict you will be bringing the sad as the Jets will be better but not make-the-playoffs better. I predict I will come up and visit your store at some point since the Wine Gods hate us Marylanders and you can’t ship to us.

    GV,

    I only hope WL will branch out into something such as an import/export business in the midwest. With Illinois gone soon, this may have to become a reality.

    If Indiana falls (which it probably will), it would make sense to look at Chicago as a fantastic small set-up shop.

    There is a huge market waiting for you here!!

    Oh yeah, One more QOTD Prediction- Not only was your Christmas wine tasting a success, you will air your Superbowl Wine Tasting Extravaganza during Halftime which will be a huge hit, while everyone else is watching Britney Spears’ Flopping around the field. Afterwards my Jaguars will come from behind yet again, and defeat the Packers 31-28 in an instant Classic!! Crazy, I know, but I only speak the truth!

  • In 2008 I predict you will be relocating the show to Montana where cows out-number humans 4 to 1 and fewer than 1 million people live in the entire state. Wine tastes better at higher altitudes and I predict your scores will increase accordingly. I predict on location shows at area ski resorts with Saint Bernards delivering the wines in casks hanging from their collars. I predict The Iowa Hawkeyes will finish better than they did this year and get back to a decent bowl game.

    Finishing up the ’02 Ch de Piras with some Mahon Curado; each of them is better off by itself.

    What will 2K8 bring?

    More couch.
    More dirt and rocks.
    More Tannat.
    More weird-ass Italian grapes I’ve never heard of.
    More varieties from Washington and Oregon that you wouldn’t think they’d be growing in Washington and Oregon.
    More guests.
    More Mott.

  • In 2008 the demand for Gary to get on another late night talk show will be so great that they will end the writers strike just to bring more thunder to main stream media.

  • GV, great descriptions on the wine today,I could almost smell and taste each one of them. I’m glad you still don’t shy away from being brutally honest even when it’s very obvious you really want to give kudo’s to a wine that you’ve really liked in previous vintages.

    QOTD: I predict more celebrity endorsements on the T-show and regular off-site tastings at various hot spots. Keep the Thunder rolling ~ CW
