Because the cycle is fixed during the day in most places.

Well it is on the bank camera and my face isn't covered, so I drop the money on the counter when he is gone.

My fav was a cheapie 30 dollar braun that lasted 10 plus years. Before that I used cheapie generic 10 to a pack disposables. But I don't mind a bit of stubble and the electric shaver still gets my face admirably smooth. If anything, I hate the odd razor cut more than anything, so electric forever.

I was told not to complain about dirty dishes at a part time job once, because they couldn't get anyone to wash dishes otherwise. The guy complained when I put steam pans with caked garbage inside back on the dish line.

But that's neat.

This story, the genetic evil one from dandelion wine (I think), and the blue bottle really stuck in my head. There was one with a premise like 451 about a guy who took evening walks instead of watching tv, and got picked up by a robotic cruiser, that one stuck to me too.
