Hillarious. Best inside joke I've read in a while.
UNIFORM LA CHILLICOTHE WORK JACKET Drop, going on right now.
Uniform LA's Chillicothe Work Jacket is an elevated take on the classic Detroit Work Jacket. Made of ultra-premium 14-ounce Japanese canvas, it has been meticulously washed and hand distressed to replicate vintage workwear that’s been worn for years, and available in three colors.
This just dropped today. If you missed out on the preorder, there are some sizes left, but they won't be around for long. Check out the remaining stock here
Good luck!.

This is known as "recalibration." I had thought that "recalibrate" was a word invented by Star Trek writers for Geordi La Forge, but it appears to be a real word, meant to describe a real phenomenon. Live and learn.
One of the "perqs" of culinary school is that meals are included when you are in session.
out of curiosity, what is the price on a course like this or, especially on the knife skills course (and do you get to keep your kit of mediocre tools)?
"Perq" is short for "perquiste." I suppose it is OK to colloquially shorten it to "perk."
The price of this class is like 15x more than Knife Skills (the cheapest one). It is much more expensive when you break it down into dollars/day, etc. For instance, the sequal to this -- "Advanced Culinary Skills" -- is slightly more than half as long, yet costs less than 1/3 as much. I am not sure what explains the disparity. I assume that has to do with all the food used, and the fact that getting a more senior instructor costs more. I don't really know.
BTW, I went to the Sur La Table on Crosby after class and bought some blade guards. I am taking my Shuns to the next class (and thereafter), damnit, and that's that. I don't care if I get called names. They are better and more comfortable. I am half convinced that I would not have cut myself had I been using one of my own knives.
Apparently, the word I want is epulcher. It was in my binder after all. I have written it on my 3"x5" card for the week.
OK, technically it was yesterday. Sue me.
I've always wondered if the parallel cuts are really necessary?
My research skillz tell me about $7,000.
that's not too bad. I looked into a CIA course for my wife a while back and it was a bit more, but it was one of the proffetional courses. sounds like a good investment.
