  1. More4 – where do you get your hair cut? Husband needs one and since You-nique is now a patisserie, we need a new place. (I do prefer the coffee.)

    If I don’t find one soon he’ll go to that place on Bedford Ave in Williamsburg that charges $70 for men’s hair.

    Double dip, DIBS. YOY follows MOM. Why do you think YOY still rose after the index peaked in ’06 and MOM went red? It’s called lag. I predict a turn in YOY in October when August gets reported. August 2009 is where MOM started falling consecutively and hasn’t let up. Of course that was after downward revisions. For that reason, the collapse is probably worse than it appears.

    The concept of a double dip is most certainly not basic to you.
