I’m really stoked to see the clos du prieur on the show. I’ve had the previous vintage and greatly enjoyed several bottles of it and definitely agree with your assessment of the wine.

Right now other than family and wine I’m really into setting up my 1982 BMW 318is for the 24hrs of LeMons with my friends. http://www.24hoursoflemons.com

Great Show.

QOTD: Hiking; Canadian Rockies. If you haven’t, you don’t know what you are missing.

Passionate about the ’77 & ’78 Yankees, specifically Thurman Munson. I was 10-11 years old, totally into little league and cable TV just came to our town so I got to watch the Yanks on WPIX. I was the catcher on my team (happened to be the Yankees) and immediately connected with the Yankee captain. Totally crushed the following year when the big man went down in that Cessna.

*wink*

QOTD: besides family and wine (and my two little boys are a big #1). . . Florida State Seminole Football, Redwing Hockey, The Masters in HD, Beer (IPAs), espresso (along with coffee and home roasting), work, politics, cooking, golf, watches, & being the best human I can be.

Great show Gary V, great show!

Crap….

And flyfishing, saltwater fishing, & music.

Solid show GV! Looking for good foods … ever hear of Zingermans? They have an awesome mail order service, wife and I went on a road trip to visit the Zingermans empire and it was a blast. http://www.zingermans.com

QOTD: Beyond family and wine, my job … totally into marketing & design. & food … totally dig all kinds of food – roaring forties is one of my new favs by the way.

I am really compelled to buy a wine that you describe as lemon creme brulee….mmm, anything desert-ish!

So, I really appreciated the MY Little Ponies today for the ladies! I used to love those, and I actually had one of the ones you displayed 🙂

I am passionate about my loved ones, dancing, cooking/food, homeopathy, fitness & beauty, good people, culture, history…and I think I wrote enough without giving you my bio.

An eclectic show brings the thunder! Nice!!

QOTD: Buckeye’s Football (’95-present), flyfishing, environmental issues (too many subtopics to mention here).

Cool show Gary. I think you un-jinxed the thunder.

QOTD: Right now getting pumped for baseball season, Yankees all day. Also, very passionate about No Limit Texas Hold-em. Leaving for the casino right now!

Ponies! When my daughters grow out of them, I’ll send you a huge box of ponies if you would like.

QOTD: I’m passionate about composing music. Kids and work make it challenging to get the time that I need to compose.

Gary, tell Erik Kastner that if he can’t keep the WL site humming along, I will. 🙂

QOTD: Motorcycle riding! Nothing goes better with wine country.

QOTD: Motorcycle riding! Nothing goes better with wine country.

Good energy on today’s show GV. QOTD: cheerleading – especially coaching it; anything Notre Dame; Camp Miniwanca; books (and bookstores). I’ll stop there. Keep it real.

Great show today! Loved it.

QOTD: Have to say God, work & fly fishing. Fly fishing to get away from work, cell phones, e-mail and to be close to God in the peace and quit oh ya and to catch some rainbow trout.

QOTD – the soon-to-be 27 time world champion New York Yankees!

QOTD: Lately I’ve been getting into poetry and photography. In fact I did my senior project about it.www.genuous.blogspot.com

The all important sniffy-sniff is the foreplay before the big event!

QOTD: Most definately.. FOOD! Very few other things in this world have the power to reconnect us with each other, and the ground we walk on (save wine of course!). Which is probably why they go so good together.. forget all that flavor stuff, just take in the essence of it. There is so much that many people do not get to experience; such a diversity of ingredients.

There is a big shift going on in this country especially in terms of our food industry. You see it everywhere. The diversity of small artisan shops – cheesemakers, bread, charcuterie. Look at the Whole Foods phenom. Its changing; people are becoming more involved in what they put in their bodies. It is totally awesome and so needed. Its going back to the land too people! And dont forget about the fish either! Stop eating that darn ahi tuna! GO SUSTAINABLE. Wild caught Alaskan Salmon/Halibut, Kona Kampachi, Farmed Tilapia, Barramundi, Stripped Bass, Bay Scallops, Farmed Shellfish, Farmed Rainbow Trout – all beautiful things that wont strip our planet of its diversity in years to come. No more foreign caught shrimp, chilean seabass, orange roughy, red snapper, and most other imported fish.. whew.. /rantoff.

thanks for mentioning the soil, without the terrior and the farmers to make it sing you got nothin’

QOTD: Merry making!

QOTD: Architecture.

The Rustenburg sounds interesting.
Will look out for it.
Good interesting show.
Cheers

QOTD: The stock market (currently BBD if you want a more specific pick), watching Kansas Jayhawk basketball, and lately more than anything playing pick-up basketball. To me there’s no more enjoyable thing in this world (other than charitable stuff) than playing pick-up basketball.

I am really getting into technology and love the Buzz Out Loud podcast from Cnet.
