line of the day – ‘what I can do is just be honest’

Guest is obviously a good guy if somewhat overawed. Best moment is Mott making his directoral debut by instructing GV to ‘move the bottles’ out of the way of the guest. Who’d have thunk it?

    QOTD: Originally from Iowa, but have spent 2/3 of my life in New York. Most people who meet me figure out that I haven’t lived here my entire life, but not sure why that is!

  • Great show…I’ll be checking out the movie soon. I’m a big Merlot fan, and love the Merlove concept.
    Representing Silver Spring, MD. Living close to the capital has made me more open to different cultures and their cuisines. And I’m a Skins fan for life (although, that hasn’t been workin out for me the last 15 years)

  • Rudy, Awesome to see someone crazy passionate about film bring that together with a great subject matter and get fired up on both.

    QOTD: Originally from southern Cali around the Disneyland area but the thing that honestly is much more my terroir is something my grandfather taught me when I was in Philly one summer: Take the time to do things right the first time and every time. That can be a product (fur coats like he did for nearly 50 years of his life), a service or simply handling people the right way. Act that way and people can’t help but feel respected and that you care about them and their time. Amazing things can happen when people feel that way and they can trust you to do things well and efficiently.

    GV: Why did you stop reading comments? Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours and give my best to the family. Would love to chat again sometime after the holidays.
