fact of the day:
95 percent of the water supply is delivered to New York City by gravity alone. The downhill flow creates enough pressure to shoot the water as high as six stories in most parts of the city without electricity or pumping.

Math is haaaarrrrrrd.
splurged on a
shave and a haircut today. wish the haircut was a little more even which is why i splurged to begin with instead of going to the much cheaper place on st. marks. but i really like the place as barbershops go. and they do a fair amount of business so im not alone in thinking that.
also, apparently there is no such thing as a trim. barbers only know "cut." get a pair of scissors in their hands and theres no stopping them.
