    We were quite happy there. Until the MTA fell apart.

    Living the good life AND being fit????

    Lift! And swim, which I used to do more, but I don't have any time any more. But lifting is essential.

    I think I hate San Francisco.

    Amen. I still love it, but it feels more and more alien.

    I think I hate San Francisco.

    I always assumed I would end up back in Santa Cruz "some day." In the last 6 months or so I have seriously started to doubt that. Of course, if anyone there other than my parents and a few close friends knew what I've done for the past year, they would kill me. So maybe that's for the best...

    I think I hate San Francisco.

    Irony? In this climate, I honestly cannot tell.

    I think I hate San Francisco.

    SF--which I still love despite everything--and which I last saw after Christmas--looks worse to me than it has since the annus horribilus of 1991. This all despite the fact that it is exponentially richer. Go ahead and pile on and tell me why I am wrong.

    Kitchen Knives

    I do not use the Edge Pro much any more. I need it for my bird's beak paring knife, which I cannot sharpen any other way. But I have found that freehand on the stones is both faster and more effective. It took some trial and error (and many youtube videos) to learn how, but I can put a pretty...

    Kitchen Knives

    Ancient thread. I still love my Takamura Pro 240 but it's got a chip that many sessions on the stones have not been able to remove. So I have to send it out. As a backup, I picked up a Masamoto VG. Korin had a pretty good discount, and I don't know if it's the currency or what, but this...

    What did you eat last night for dinner?

    Hey, bios, I am going to be in Hamburg for two days. Working like a sled dog the whole time, but I thought I'd mention it.

    What did you eat last night for dinner?

    I actually almost booked that because it's so familiar. No idea if it's any good these days. Anyway, was recommended to try Nakatani, so booked that.

    Reasons why New York Sucks

    I take the Metro around 1x/week. Always in the AM. It's better in the morning than in the evening.

    What did you eat last night for dinner?

    Going to be in Paris for one night in about two weeks. Where should I go? I think *** is too much, but I could do ** or *. Thanks.

    Reasons why New York Sucks

    I am grateful to have avoided the complete meltdown of the NYC and metro rail systems. It was bad before I left, but these days there's a headline every day about how much worse it is. So long, suckers!
