GE Profile induction range review

Neven goes induction:

You may have heard about induction cooktops, increasingly used in fine restaurants the world over. What you may not realize is that they’re also an excellent option for your home kitchen; induction is the ideal cooking method for almost all cooktop uses, and right now, you can upgrade your kitchen to it more affordably than ever.

As an aside, I’m taking at least partial credit for Neven’s delving into electromagnetic cooking. I’ve personally sold at least three induction ranges (GE, where’s my kickback?) despite the fact that I cook on a crappy electric range in the crappy galley kitchen in my not-exactly-crappy-but-nothing-to-write-home-about-either one bedroom apartment.

—Sometimes, I really hate Chuck Klosterman’s writing. His attempt to review the Beatles remaster does absolutely nothing to fix that.

I, too, fear our coming oligarhy overlords.

Sadly, the mouthbreathers who lap this up are the same ones keeping their kids out of school today.

No lie, I’m excited about this.

Not just because it’s two whipsmart lads dishing on fashion but because it’s none other than Messrs Thorn and Lisagor. For all their talent and brilliance, these two, moreso than most, have a sense of style. These gentlemen, and they are true gentlemen, are comfortable with themselves in a way that most men aspire to be but fail at accomplishing.
