There a big rally/ protest/ riot downtown. 

Freaks trying to help illegals. 

Which means, they want the legals to wait longer...

Razor cuts arent for everyone.  I have a lot of hair but its mostly fine or medium textured. If i had curly hair a razor wouldn't work out.  If i had long hair shears would be better. But right now its short. Finding new doctors, nail salons, hairdressers is all something you dont think about when you move.  But it can be frustrating.

You know how bad the Kings county (Brooklyn) district Attorney's office is? 

 

I was speaking to a bureau chief from the Bronx county DAs office earlier, and they had nothing but harsh words for them. Like they had a joint special narcotics case, Kings county was so misinformed about the law, that they had to call the NY county (Manhattan) DA to clarify. And, Kings county was wrong. 

 

You know you're really bad if the Bronx knows more than you...

Since my barber of 20 years closed for renovations a couple of years ago, I found a second stylist. She's right by my house, and half the price. But, she sucks! 

So now I split the visits. If my last haircut was from my old stylist, I'd go to the new one and say, "you see this? Just like this, but shorter!" 

And she still screws it up...

Are the DAs elected or appointed, huh man?

And who's bad -- the DA, or the hired help, huh man?
