New things done

[xoder]

Found in the 23rd St. 8th Ave. station, northbound platform, around 24th St. I hope you can read the text, as it was pretty interesting.

Lately, thanks in part to the end of my school year & Erin's graduation, we've had a little more time to do things. This week we went to a knife skills class & saw 'Foot Fist Way'.

The class was very interesting, and I feel I learned a lot. Like how to cut an onion properly, reducing (but not eliminating) the amount of irritation. And how to cut a bagel without killing yourself. (Show of hands: how many of you thought of BDSM when I said 'Knife Skills'? And how many thought of martial arts?)

The movie was pretty good. I was worried I wouldn't like it as it's one of those awkward comedies that generally make me want to run away in sympathy rather than laugh. But in the end, I thought it was funny and sweet. I was probably one of the only people in the audience that recognised the forms as authentic. This film deserves more audience. Give it :-)

The first thing that popped into my head was a cooking-sort of class, but then I thought "this is Peter, it could be anything!" :-D

My very first thought was that it was just a class for cutting things. I don't know, I guess just general cutting things, possibly with a sideline in taking care of your cutting implement. On further reflection, this makes no sense, because cutting a person for fun, cutting a person for self defense, and cutting bagels probably have very little in common.

Then I thought BDSM.

Then martial arts.

Then I stopped thinking about it for while.

Then, for some reason, I thought about whittling.
