Watching the Egyptian "revolution" on television is genuinely moving.  There's not many things that I get sentimental over, I'm just not very easy to excite.  But just to be able to sit and witness history being made, these are the moments we live for.

Less than 5 hours until RIT's ImagineCup starts!
48 hours of wonderful game programming with free foodz sponsored by Microsoft.

Oh, and a free Halo: Reach copy to every team that signs up. Not that I have an XBox.

Now if only I can manage to score a summer co-op job while there...

May I inquire what your exact beliefs on European table manners and dining customs are?
Because this sounds to me, like you think the average european is overextended with the use cutlery.

Huh?  I think that the average European probably puts their fork in their left hand and cuts with their right, as opposed to the American "both fork and knife go in the right hand when they're being used, and they swap positions whenever you change what you're doing.  When in doubt, just forget about the knife and cut with the fork's edge."

Bah, there's no TV reception where I live.  Maybe I'll be able to get something from the internet.

I definitely use left for fork and right for knife, but I didn't know it was any different in America...?

There are live updates on some news sites.

I'm left handed. I do everything important with my left hand.
 Also I always write in cursive. Now that's weird.

Yes.  Yes, you are.

Yeah, we switch hands, and apparently in Germany you use your knife to help shove food onto the fork.  They even have food pushers to teach their kids to eat that way, kind of like Asian folks can have springy connected chopsticks to teach proper style.

I use both eating implements in my right hand as well.

Also, I have a shitton of ham sandwiches, begging from friends, while humiliating, is profitable.

 im right handed and can't say that im ambidextrous (maybe for shooting and knifefights), i just found it more comfortable to use a knife with my left hand.

Yeah, but that's basically no one's particular style ^_^;;

We have uh... being told to use your fork in your left hand until you do.  It's hardly universal here though.

Damn, don't you end up stabbing yourself in the face every time you try to eat a mouthful?

[The Merchant Of Menace]

Alternating, of course

[Tellemurius]

holy crap, you're telling me im the only one that uses left hand knife cutting?

[Vector]

Not the only one.  The results aren't back from the polls yet.  But it's not the American or European standard.
