RE: FOAMY WATER

|

More on water:

Thanks for letting me know why my breath smelled/tasted like dog crap last night. I took one swallow and thought a sewage line had been routed into the water system. I cannot believe it’s totally harmless though — that’s just their spin until someone gets sick.

And even more:

I went to Balls (is it Balls’ or Ball’s? I didn’t note the apostrophe) Hamburgers for lunch today, and they had a disclaimer posted about the water in the fountain drinks. I ordered a Diet Coke, and they asked if I’d read the sign. It went something along the lines of:

“Before you order a fountain drink, please be aware that the Park Cities water supply tastes funky. We have been assured that it is not harmful or toxic, but it tastes funky. Try a new limeade or bottled drink!”

Being interested in the “weird bubbles in the water phenomenon” from my religious reading of FB, I originally thought, “Yeah, I’ll try it — see what this ‘funky’ is all about.” And then I decided that was really stupid.

I had bottled water.
