I looked out my office window shortly after I arrived at work this morning to see that 8th Street has turned into a river. The local news has finally gotten around to confirming that there was a water main break and while city maintenance is on the scene, they still haven’t found the problem. Is it a sad commentary on the state of American society that I was shocked there were no interviews with citizens speculating on terrorist involvement?
On a more humorous note, I’ve really been enjoying watching businessmen trying to jump over the stream without getting their expensive suit pants wet. Not one has made it all day.

Massive rain here in NYC this morning. I got so wet that my cell phone shorted out and is now either dead or (hopefully) just in a coma.
Skroo the expensive pants — they can be dry cleaned.
