he wants to be a chef when he grows up and at his pace that might not be a bad career for him. im going to teach him more entre's this year to increase his portfolio so that i wont have to cook ever again!!
Time for a quality set of knives for him!!! Best investment I ever made to my culinary degree when I was in college. Oh, and prep him to work holidays too

i always liked honda's. ive owned at least one honda since the beginning.
Yea. It's the minor improvement they made for the 2013 models. 12's looked box-ey, and the 14's look more "aggressive". Just wish the car had more life to it. It can't handle a bump, the clutch travels a full 6 inches to the floor, has no feeling in the steering whatsoever since it's electric, and is rather unwieldy in terms of turning radius. On upside I've seen so far is that it doesn't have a single blind spot.

yah, i think i will consider getting him his own set of knives. my wife's a great chef herself and has some real nice knives... im not real familiar with the brand and all, but when i use them it slices everything effortlessly.

huh... doesn't sound very honda-ish for a civic si thought they actually changed something on the '14 other than just appearance to make them more honda-ish?

on the other hand, the current gen accord-sport MT sedan appears to be a nice package. pretty quick for a large 4banger sedan too and appears to be pretty fun to drive.

We've had these plates forever, 20 years. Was Crate & Barrel around then? lol
