Hey GV, fun show today. I’m coming to Chicago to see you, but I think you should roll through Michigan as well. No real preference on which city, although you should hit up the west coast, and check out the big lake.

QOTD: First I’d ask you what you were drinking so I could buy you another, and then I’d ask if you could have dinner with anyone, dead or alive, who would it be and why? Keep it real.

Yo, I’ll be at the Portland, Oregon book signing. If you want, I’d love to have you as my guest and I’ll crack open a few bottles of Quilceda Creek to show you Pacific NW hospitality! My question is a personal favorite of mine with all my buddies (perfect for drunken bar talk):

What girl do you regret most not hooking up with?

I’ll be seeing you in San Francisco.

QOTD: What’s your favorite non-chain everyday eating place near you. A place were you can go to eat once a week.

Oh, and have your agent contact Cody’s Books in Berkeley,CA. They have speakers all the time and just opened up in a brand new location on the main street.

I’m contacting Borders bookstores tomarrow so you CAN COME TO ST. LOUIS MISSOURI… IT IS THE GATEWAY TO THE WEST… hit me up gary V and ill show you around town.

QOTD: I would ask you if I could buy you a root beer or two and give you a ride home haha

Gary, tell your mom “С днÑ?м Ñ?ождения!” for me.
QOTD: What’s the best Bordeaux you’ve ever had? (I know what mine is!!)

Hey Gary

Having visited San Gimignano recently and not tried the wines I was really impressed when I had a couple of bottles on return to HK.

Anyway QOTD: 1. Probably: “whould you like a drink?”
2. Seeing who you are: “Is the American wine drink scene as tragic as the glimpses I see in your show?” “People not drining until they’re 21, the whole reliance on RP ratings and the evil nature with which alcohol is held”

Cheers
Andrew

Happy BD to the wonderful women in your life!

QOTD: Do you think we could be related? Based on my family history – could be a connection!

If you could pick ONE Jets number one draft pick to get a do-over, which would it be? Factor in both how big of a bust the Jets pick was and the great players they could have taken instead.

Yer stoppin in SF, why not hop over to our exotic island city of Alameda? Alameda, home of Willie Stargell, JR Rider (though we don’t want to claim him), JImmie Rollins, Dontrell Willis, Phyllis Diller and Johnny Weissmüller (the original Tarzan). Books Inc on Park St has authors in there ALL the time, they’re very open to visiting writers. On top of that, within walking distance are some very fine restaurants (pappo, cera una volta) a few dandy wine shops, and a new wine bar opening soon (maybe they’ll be open when you pop thru – they are literally, around the corner from Books Inc). And if you’ve had enough wine, head to Forbidden Island (still here on our lil’ island)for FABULOUS tropical hawaiian fuzzy drinks ala Trader Vics in the 60’s.Really, just a 20 minute ride from SF, totally worthwhile!

Come to Montreal! Bring your special thunder. Tomorrow I look for Vernaccia to share with Bill when he gets back from Belize.
QOTD Does a bottle of wine taste differently in France,for example, than when you drink the same wine back home?

QOTD: What is your absolute favorite varietal?

I am coming to see you on the 27th in Portland. Are you set up with Powell’s City of Books? The best book store in, dare I say it, the world! If you come down on Monday we could taste some Oregon Pinot Noir and I could ask you that question. – How are you creating balance in your life between family and your work/passions? Pinot Noir form Oregon is an excellent wine to pursue philosopical dialog.

qotd: You see yourself still doing the winelibrary tv on a regular basis in lets say 3 to 5 years and will it stay for free? Ive seen lots of people change because of getting “famous”, also on a personal level..

regarding the beginning of the show..expanding the palette.. bought a Tandem syrah 2005 from Morocco..a casa madero merlot 2004 from Mexico and a NO man’s land red 2006 from Bulgaria today with a local wine importer here in Belgium. Santé!

Mott link that up.

QOTD: What is your bottom line, net net?

QOTD: I would ask you for a frank opinion of Michelle Roland and his influence in the wine world.

QOTD…easy question at 1230… SHOTS???

great show Gary! love the Vernaccia, specially the heavier ones. Nice deep flavors.
To bad that there wil be no book signing in Europe, I’m from Holland.

QOTD: I would ask you to come with me and my friends to Italy where we cut the grapes for the wine. Every year we go to this beautiful place in Tuscany and spend a week in the fields, there is nothing like it.

SMELL THAT

Nothiing but nothing sez “happy birthday Mommy” better than a free shipping offer

And yes, yes, yours truly, Phil M’Glassup will attend your vviewing party @ Bounce.

And my question will be, can I come over for a taste of that La Tache you’ve got squirreled away?

Please bring the book tour (and the THUNDER) to either Tampa or Orlando in sunny Florida. I’m in between and can go either way.

QOTD: Are you tired? I am just curious to compare energy levels on camera to “chilling” at a bar at 12:30am, and wonder if your always that hyper. Ironically, I usually watch your show in the morning with my coffee cuz it makes me feel pumped for the day. Keep it up =)

come to boston! there must be loads of vayniacs in new england who want to see you!

Hey GV, we want the Thunder in Boston.

QOTD: Can you pick up the tab? 😉
