So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money. But when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness."

So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.

If I'm dicing, I go equatorially (across the "width" of the onion) and then turn it and pole to pole. If I want slices, I go pole to pole, and slightly angle the knife in towards the middle, so that I don't get any huge, klunky pieces that aren't sliced.
