Profundity can occur in the shower

One of the major issues with taking up showers instead of baths for me was the problem of when to have profound thoughts. Without my daily bath, would I cease to come up with life shattering ideas and solve problems that have been puzzling mankind since the dawn of time? It seemed likely. But, in the interests of water conservation, I decided that I would risk not saving the world for the moment.

However last night while in the shower I was wondering why, when I closed my eyes, I didn't fall over as would normally happen in a non shower environment. It struck me that the shower on my head is a point of reference. So my brain knows that to stay upright, my feet need to stay connected to the floor and the top of my head to the stream of water. Cool hey?
