thats a bit of a hike away. oh well. enjoy your trip.
[QUOTE=my porsche;762198]Just get Global Knives. If you enjoy cooking at all they are the most perfectly balanced knives you'll ever use. Plus they look cool.[/QUOTE]
i have a Shun Ken Onion chef's knife, and i am enamored with it. i woudl like to get the whole Ken Onion set, but my wife woudl rather the whole regular shun set. either way i woudl be fine. you can't beat the shun for looks and quality craftsmanship. Global is alright, I dont really have feelings for them one way or the other. (incidently this week I met Kat Cora and I asked her what knives she uses, and she said Global.)

[QUOTE=CdocZ;762210]So I am not the only Jew here :p Hanukkah is so early this year, its ridiculous
Spending money/my trip itself is my Hanukkah present, not exactly much choice (going to Israel for February and March)
[/QUOTE]
Yeah Im going to be missing it with my family this year because I will still be in school and getting ready for my finals.
You will love Israel, I spent a summer there and except for having to be evacuated from the north because Lebanon was shooting, it was one of the most amazing trips of my life.

Israel is either a supermega fun country, or all Jewish kids praise it too much. (I'm not a bigot, I just have Jewish friends that say Israel was by far the best time they've ever had) It might be because you take a year away from home to party in another country, or something like that.

That does sound kinda weird.
[QUOTE=Fleet 500;762221]I would like the two items shown below:[/QUOTE]
The girl or the TV?
[QUOTE=Rockefella;762249]I probably won't get anything. Maybe some clothes, some cash, that's about it. Presents get worse with age and my relations with immediate family is pretty rocky right now so this Christmas is going to be forgettable.[/QUOTE]
Probably what I'm going to get, minus the family stuff.
Not that I really need the Nikon or the PS3. Happy with what I have right now.

Pretty much - you are in a foreign country with a huge amount of beach, desert/California type weather, and one of the most laid back cultures I have yet heard of (except in politics and such....). Clubbing age is 16, drinking age is 18, you are in a junction of Europe, Asia and Africa, and they all contribute a little wildness. Plus if you are Jewish/Christian/Islamic, you have a lot of spiritual roots there. Awesome place, so excited.

Was it a program of some sort or did you just go? I am very much hoping to go there for a summer or maybe a study abroad program. However, Australia and the U.K. make for good competition for where to study for a semester :p

Outside of that, things I would like....

- This hot girl at my school
Yeah, that's about it[/QUOTE]
You are not alone with McLaren!

A lot of professional chefs prefer Global because of the feel, ever used one? They're light, fantastically balance, and stay pretty sharp. I love mine. I also use Henckels though, and that is a great santoku, very hefty, which I like for heavy work, as opposed to the global which is a really nice finesse knife.

I know that's right... we haven't seen 1/2 of the 1:18 Ferrari models we should have in 07...
(I think it's because of the Chinese lead paint deal, they all got pushed back - just my hunch, no facts to back it up)

When asked for suggestions for presents the other day the only things I could come up with were some new socks, maybe a couple of new shirts for work, and the new Bruce Springsteen record.
I've officially turned into my Dad, at the age of 25. :(
