Hey, the first 5 years of my married life we lived in an appartment in Europe
where water didn't have enough pressure to reach the 10th until around 2am, and
the lift power went off 5 days a week.
I got the perfectly toned legs(cough!...) I have today out of carrying 20 litre
jerry cans of water up the 10th floor via never-ending stairs, twice a day...
See, it's actually good for your health. And we didn't need no stinken hurricanes!
