              Cheers L, you're the man. I think I'm gonna ask Shane if he wants to change jobs to be my tour guide for a day of eats and spends  😉

              (Joking Shane, but I will be bugging you and L for advice and tips  😉 )

              I should be able to do that. A lot of the consignment/vintage/thrift places are hit and miss, that's why I go 1-2 times a week. You never know!

              There's about 7-8 places I go to in the East Village. Then, take a stroll down to the Lower East side for Selfedge, Epaulet, Reed Space. Then, curve around to 3-4 places in Nolita including Supreme. Then, Soho for Blue in Green.

              There's three vintage/thrift spots in Williamsburg that you have to go to as well though. One is run by a bunch of Japanese guys, and you know they kind of know what they're doing in that department 🙂

                What keeps water from going into your ear and further into your brain? If your ear canal was closed, you wouldn't be able to hear so how does it not go further?

                        I think Lando is right. If you look at the diagram of an ear, there really isn't any place water can seep in towards your brain. That snail looking thing is the inner ear which is the things that transfers vibrations to your brain, if I remember correctly. Plus, it'll be difficult for liquid to travel far as there is also pressure in the ears.

                        Then again, it's all just guesses. *CALLING ANY DOCTORS OUT THERE..

                                      I heard through grapewine that pucells are ½ size smaller than chucks.  This isn't for sure though

                                      (Chucks are ½ size bigger than PF Flyers, I'm 9 in PF's and could have done 8,5 in Chucks)

                                        I've never ordered a pair of glasses that weren't from my eye Dr. but need some new ones soon

                                        Would it be possible to get these http://www.selfedge.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=72&products_id=941 fitted with prescription lenses. And if so, where?

                                            Most half decent opticians.  Usually works out cheaper than buying the shitty frames they try and palm off on to you.  Me and Mme B have resolved to always get vintage or decent (Dita for e.g.) and take them in and get them installed with our prescription lenses.  In the UK the majority of the chains will not do this (making there money off the frames) but most good independent opticians will.
