Just wait, the dollar is due to weaken more so than it has this past weak.

It's not working now. FYI

Since I don't want to get I will take a picture and post it tomorrow.

Sorry to hear that Luis. Looks like the hardware plague is making it's rounds. I got a bit of it a couple of months ago.

Probably terrifying based on my experiences last week.

Stay safe and we will be looking for your homecoming posts.

The Wustof and Henkels blades are way too soft for me. The softness has some advantages in that they sharpen with a a few minutes on the stone, but I would rather have a higher maintenance high carbon forged blade any time for the sheer smooth and effortless slicing they provide. Most commercial chef knives sold in retail stores will have high chromium content to make them stainless and like most cases there is a trade off and the trade off is a soft blade. I use a my Shun 10 inch Damascus for big dinner parties requiring a lot of food prep which is fine in most cases but nothing beats my hand forged single edge Mitsubishi white steel Santouko style for slicing everything fast and neat. I agree with Reks though for commercially available chef knives in the affordable range nothing beats Global and Shun.

I think it is time for a new chef knife to go with the new kitchen gear. http://www.newwestknifeworks.com/store/phoenixknivesitem/the-9

How'd you do dat? Wish I could add infinity to my posts once in a while.

Reks- "The Dr. Spock for the new millenium". On sale at a Barnes and Noble near you.

I would think a coat for a greyhound is pretty much of a necessity in your neck of the woods this time of year given most greyhounds seem to have < 5% bodyfat.

Well that certainly beats the boring charts and research reports I have been reading all day.

That never stopped you before.......... You must be one of the most productive DIYers I know of. Having personally benefited from that never ending stream of projects I would say- you don't need no sleep. Sleep when ya retire.

That is awesome! You made my day and evening. I vote we bring in the woman on the telephone call to make a guest appearance at Canjam 2009.

You guys forget, one of the side benefits of a granite remodel is that there is not waste. All of the granite that doesn't make it to be a counter top gets transformed into anti resonance speaker and amp platforms. Nate is right though, the era of refi remodels is done for a while I believe. Just as well, why not be able to afford what you buy, gee what a concept. Since every remodel around here has used the cookie cutter Home Depot look of granite and steel, when we do ours I am leaning to wards Caeserstone or some of the Corian variations.

AMAZING! Nice choice of wood Steve.

dada ist alles gemutlichtkeit................

So you doing the cooking and dishes tonight? Congrats on finishing what ever your time.

That is kind of what I recall in my conversation with Stephen as well. I think their decision to focus on one brand and model of HP is a good one especially given the intent is for the product not to be all things to all people but to be a different home theater experience with excellent audio to be a secondary goal. Similar to the concept of why home theater equipment manufacturers try to focus on home theater specific implementations with high end audio secondary. Trying to be all things to all people is a fail in the making.

Yes, more Buffalo impressions please; please mention the music you are playing and which cans you are using since most of you guys own at least five or six pairs.

X3.

Almost three quarters of a Haiku there /\ /\ /\ /\

Well I guess "cold" is relative. I remember in highschool I moved from Honolulu (73 degrees) to Chicago in late January (negative 32 degrees). A one hundred and five degree temperature change in one week. At least up north you have months to acclimate to the big chill.
