  1. I like my Henckels but they are not on the same level as the Japanese knife that I bought. The German knives are thicker and seem to be better for certain tasks like cutting through bone or cartilage. The Japanese knives are thin and made from a steel that takes a razor sharp edge. They slice so much better. It will rust or tarnish though if it is not cared for properly though. There does seem to be a few manufacturers like Shun that are more marketing than substance though. Kind of like the BOSE of Japanese knives and riding the wave of increased interest.
  2. Anyone else a little too into their knives? I spent hours researching types of steel and different manufacturers and decided on the Zakuri Yanagiba in Blue Super Carbon steel. I realize this is not normal behavior. Although I felt a little better after finding entire forums dedicated to kitchen knives! After using a quality knife I really can't understand how anyone can tolerate a crappy, dull knife. Do you have a brand or specific knife that you recommend? My Henckels are looking at an early retirement as I find replacements...
  3. That's awesome! I've always wanted a Garand. My arsenal has been shrinking as I realize that I simply don't fire many of my guns much any more, but that would be one I would happily make room for in the safe.
  4. I will be there with a handful of the North Jersey Bills Backers. It will be my first time at Met Life Stadium.
  5. Thanks for all the (mostly) great advice. *I'm 40. I was married for 8 years but had no kids. Had few relationships since the divorce but nobody with a young child. **I have never been to a Turkish prison
  6. Anyone have any words of wisdom related to meeting a girlfriend's 4 year old daughter for the first time? I really like this girl and don't view it as a fling. The mom has not dated anyone since the daughter's father and that ended a couple years ago, so I will be the first guy that is getting to meet her. My girlfriend also has full custody so there is a very big attachment. I have no kids and very limited experience dating someone with a child. Any pointers from those of you that have been through it before would be appreciated.
  7. Handoff to Bryce Brown and HB pass to Mike Williams for a TD.
  8. The toughest thing about being a Bon Jovi fan is... Telling your parents that you're gay. *not that there's anything wrong with that. **the gay part, not the Bon Jovi part. There is something very wrong about listening to Bon Jovi
  9. I don't know why the site locks up every time I try to attach a photo or link, but MilanaVayntrup, or Lily from the AT&T commercials, is my favorite.
  10. In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey. Loser, Beck
  11. Life ain't so sh!tty, there's a lot that you can be. Blind Melon.
  12. We have the following starting positions: QB, RB, RB/WR, WR, WR, WR/TE, TE, DST, K We can keep up to 2 players. Keeping 1 player cost you your 1st round pick, keeping 2 costs your first 2 picks. Snake draft starting in the 4th round and I have the #1 pick. (First pick in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd round, last pick in 4th round, etc) We have 10 teams. Thanks Bluefire for all the detailed info!
  13. I am in a 2 keeper league and have Jamaal Charles as one keeper. I have to choose between keeping Matt Forte or Peyton Manning as my 2nd keeper. It is standard scoring and we only have to play one RB. We can play a 2nd RB in a RB/WR slot. I'm leaning toward Manning at this point.
  14. I just moved to Bergen County NJ from near Rochester. Not sure how easy it would be to get to your bar via the trains since I am still pretty clueless about getting around. I went to Oswego too. What years where you there?
  15. My old hometown of Canandaigua, NY has a great craft brewery that makes some awesome beers. Naked Dove (nakeddovebrewing.com). I really like their American Brown and Windblown Amber. They don't sell bottles or cans, but a lot of local bars carry their beer and it seems to be making its way around NY. You can also get tastings and growlers at the brewery.
  16. Old Speckled Hen Brooklyn Summer River Horse Summer Hell or High Watermelon
  17. Let's Go To Prison Bubble Boy Over The Top
  18. Meatloaf : I Would Do Anything For Love Creed : With Arms Wide Open Cher : Believe
  19. I heard today on Rover's Morning Glory that this was a hoax. I hope they prosecute the adults that are responsible for this.
  20. I can't wait to see the current generation of children enter the workforce. It should be extremely entertaining reading about all the lawsuits and complaints when they have to compete for, and are turned down for a job, are forced to take a test for a license, or work one minute more than 8 hours in a day. Hopefully the zombie apocalypse happens prior to that.
  21. I hope I am wrong and not just being a skeptical ahole, but it seems like this situation is too strange to be true. Has anyone heard from the waitress that made the horrible request? Could anyone really be that stupid? (waitress and complaining customers) This awful story has led to a huge amount of donations. And the family does not shy away from pointing out their FB page. Is it possible that the family is embellishing the story?
  22. And to end all debate...The absolute greatest movie of all time...ROADHOUSE! Some of the best lines ever. "Pain don't hurt" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098206/quotes
  23. Brewster"s Millions Trading Places It's tough to beat Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy in their prime.
  24. Two more classics... Children Of Men Joe Dirt
