I’m gettin’ the shakes again….where are this week’s shows?

There’s something I don’t know about Discus. I always have trouble getting the cursor to appear under Add New Comment.

QOTD: I would drink Barbaresco from wooden kegs with Jack Sparrow, Davey Jones, and cohorts on the deck of their pirate ship. We would drink out of heavy silver cups; sing drinking songs, like Sixteen men on a dead man’s chest; play drinking games; whatever those would look like; and regale each other with tales of the sea well into the night.

But if he gives you some Very strong herbal boullion to sip on… Watch Out!!

Yo Randall, The few Pinotages I drank were pretty LAME…..
Stick wit da Pinot Noirs !! :oD

Now I KNOW you’re a wino!! 😉
We already had this discussion a while back. Memba? “Smoky, fruity goodness in the Pinotages that I’ve tried” I said. And you were all “Hit me wit somodat!”
So I would say… Revisit the Pinotage. And hopefully this time you won’t get a flabby one! Some DO indeed suck…
p.s. Try a Golden Kaan. It’s $20ish and “Yes.. it’s real and it’s Fantastic!!” (ala Seinfeld)

Wow… Now THAT’S some thought!! Right on!
🙂

Awesome show Gary. Been on vacation the past week and have been going through WLTV withdrawal! Going to have to get off my bum and start grabbing a few of these great Nebbiolos!

QOTD: I’m a big fan of English-style mysteries, so I’d have a round table dinner with Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie’s Belgian detective Poirot, and Inspector Morse.

I feel like I will never be able to explore wine to any meaningful level, and that makes me sad. Maybe in six months I might finally get around to trying Nebbiolo.

QOTD Alf immediately popped into my head somehow.

Gary, when are you going to do the mead show?

Since my favourite part of the wine world had a terrible 2008 (Nothern Rhone) I go for the safe bet. Bordeuax or Napa Cab. My favourite among Bordeaux is Chateau Pichon-Loungeville Comtesse de Lalande. The 2008 is just out for sale at 75 bones a bottle and is a good vintage. The wine could easliy store for 20 years in a good cellar. But there are so many wines to choose from.

Nice choice. My avatar is meant to be an image of him. No images of him date back to his time, so who knows what he looked like. Like Homer some question his existence, but I wouldn?t classify him as fictional.

I just had a really weird mental image of Darth Vader dancing with an umbrella while singing ?Singing in the Rain.?

Wow. What a powerful ep. I have enjoyed Nebbiolo-based wines in the past, but I did not know of this potential. Love the “bite of moose” comment. Truly hilarious.

QOTD1: Gene Kelly for me, is timeless.
QOTD2: 007, Jean-Luc Picard, or Leto I.

Thanks. I though it was evocative of a simpler place and time.

I thought you had to be a computer person to undertand Disqus.

QOTD: Samwise Gamgee…I like the thought of having some wine with someone who keeps pans, bacon, and sausage on their person. Plus I always trust a fat cook.

nope

so u guys need a vayner fix … link it up

That’s one of the strangest replies I have received. Interesting, but strange.

It brings up the possibility of he and Boba Fett breaking into a chorus of “Happy Days Are Here Again.”

There were two questions of the day and you gave two answers. The first question was to name an umbrella character. Many people thought of Gene Kelly doing ?Singing in the Rain.? You thought of Darth Vader. This is what triggered my mental image. 🙂

Mr.Steed from the Advengers! Always a classy umbrella!
We need to know your fav French Malbec!

Jeff & Allison

That’s ALL that triggered that mental image??
