The funny thing is, it is easy to cut a bagel.  Place it on a
cutting board.  Assuming you are right handed, place the palm of
your left hand on the bagel, keeping your fingers up.  Cut 1/2
way into one side of the bagel.  Turn the bagel on its side,
with the knife at the top parallel with the counter.  Hold the
bagel from the top with your left hand, and finish cutting.

Of course, there is the "Polly" method.  Take the bagel in your
left hand, and a butcher knife in your right hand.  Swing the
knife viciously so it sinks deep into the bagel, then slam the
knife down on the counter to finish cutting through the bagel.
(Polly has a *lot* of scars on her palm, perhaps inspiring the
above story.)
