QOTD: Worrying about whether or not my basement would make an adequate passive wine cellar because my “16-bottle silent wine fridge” is on the fritz.

QOTD – built a new bike.

What’s the nerdiest thing I’ve done this year?

Oh lordy how I could go on, I will give the top two:

1) I wrote an argumentative quantitative essay trying to convince a girl that it was in her mathematical best interest to go on a date with me…it didn’t work.

2) One girl told me I was too much of a dork, so I broke down her name phonetically and number/alphabeticaly terms to prove that her name equation was twice as nerdy as my own.

Interesting little episode. I get that this is Pinot Noir Blanc, but you also said that there is a Pinot Noir Blanc grape. Do you mean Pinot Blanc?

QOTD: I set up my own weather station in my yard and have it reporting to my laptop and to the internet. i think that qualifies as nerdy.

BTW, Xnegd sounds like he outnerds everyone else! 😉

Sorry I have been away. Great show and greaat information.

Not really nerdy, but I had the cheesiest arrest I have ever had to make last week. “Failure to return Library Property” was the charge. It took me a while but got the judge to deal with this and did not have to take the person to jail.

Made my own Limoncello!

QOTD: Probably flying from Germany to Miami to go on the Thunder Cruise!

QOTD: Utilized my free time as an unemployed banker to take the Wine And Spirits Education Trust “Intermediate Certificate” and “Advanced Certificate” classes and exams…and passed the both! My best study material…WLTV!

Interesting show – I have read about Pinot Noir blanc with the Domaine Serene release of a similar wine. My dad once tried to get me to fall for White Merlot – I thought that it was hideous.

QOTD – I do not understand the word nerd because I am a dren. Do you remember the Happy Days episode when Joanie had a crush on Potsie? She called him “dren”, which is nerd backwards. I honestly can’t think of one, which may simply mean that I am a nerd.

Cool show guy. Very interesting how different the grape is w/o skins. QOTD: Prereading for conferences.

I just saw one of those from Germany in a wine store. I should probably go and pick it up. It was cheaper than the one you had on too.
qotd: Probably the Uruguayan marselan.

I think you might’ve layed it on a bit thick there in the beginning with how unique it was. Virtually every white Champagne outside of a blanc de blancs has pinot noir in it. although it is cool to see a still version of one.

89/100

line of the day – ‘toasted baseball bat in my mouth’

Solid but short episode mainly notable for Mott not warming to the guest on yesterday’s episode. Nuts
