    Did I hear you correctly? Did you say your are stopping at 400 shows?
    If this is true what am I going to do when the afternoon duldrums set in at work?

    7 more shows? are you nuts? That’s like Kellen Clemens announcing he’s going to retire from football before next season. The only difference is the jets could replace him.
    I’m boycotting the QOTD until your shenanigans are over!

  • So are you going to have your own mainstream TV show now, that’s my guess? Food Network? I’d certainly hope you would not abandon the Vaniacs completely.

    QOTD: Golf, drink wine, video games, hang out with my wife and 2 girls!

  • What is this nonsense, seven more shows then you quit. Fear of success? or somebody’s lawyer threatening you? If the latter, screw them. We’ll all back you up–at the trial that is πŸ˜€ — for the rest of it, you’re on your own baby.

    Yay! I’m so glad you enjoyed the Run Rig. I’m super pumped because on March 6th my husband and I will be celebrating our 10th anniversary, and we’ll be popping open a bottle of 1998 Run Rig. Yes, it is a total indulgence, but that’s what we want for our celebration. πŸ™‚

    Hardly wait until tomorrow’s episode to see how they evolve.
    Should do this more often – maybe with some lower end wines as well.

    So looks like some sort of change after episode 400 ??? (7 more to go ??)

  • The Run Rig might be Hollywood, but Garry needs at least a couple hundred more shows to hit the big time. Don’t prematurely retire on us. I enjoyed this show and the trip so far.
    qotd: long distance running, wine, hanging with my recent fiance. Definitely in that order as well..

    The prospect of seven more shows leaves me seriously depressed. The Thunder Show is the best show, not just on the Internet, but also on TV (it is certainly better than anything on the Food Network).
