Do Not Drink The Water

[Midlife]

To all those who enjoy a bottle of beer...
And those who don't.

As Ben Franklin said:
In wine there is wisdom,
In beer there is freedom,
In water there is bacteria.

In a number of carefully controlled trials, Scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water each day...
At the end of the year we would have absorbed More than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. Coli) - bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop..

However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking beer & wine (or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor), because alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.

Remember:
Water = Poop,
Beer = Health.

Therefore, it's better to drink beer and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of shit.

There is no need to thank me for this valuable information: I'm doing it as a public service!

Hey Mid, I believe those scientist overlooked another very important fact about water intake. As my college roomate said, "I don't drink water because fish f**k in it." No idea about the quantities found in a glass of water, but I'm going to abstain!

That quote is actually attributed to W.C. Fields, one of my heros!

Doesn't surprise me that came from Fields, between him Mark Twain and Winston Churchill, I've read some real classics.

Actually Mel, I think this was in D.C.

Some time ago, i read that in NYC, the average glass of tap water, had already been through a human body 7 times. Its probably way more then that by now. Gross when you think about it.

I was reading awhile back about how the prescription drugs for heart meds/blood pressure meds are starting to show up in drinking water tests. Seems like the water is getting re-circulated so much that this is the next threat level to water treatment. This was in Fl btw so you know how many oldies down there have to take this stuff everyday, they pee out what the body doesn't use and it goes thru the waste water and is recycled back into the drinking water thru the aquifers. :scar

I always thought that was due to the flushing of outdated or no longer needed drugs down the toilet.

Thats correct, and the primary reason why so many teenage girls have d cups. Same thing with that NYC stuff i pointed out. It was in a tradesman magazine i used to get.

I take those types of meds. My docs seem to prescribe amounts that are too much. I have been able to cut the dosage in five years in 1/4 of what they started with and have no change.

How many people have they done this to and the people just say "OK Doc, what ever you say."

Also notice how they like to prescribe the newest fanciest most expensive drug they can get their prescription pad around? I always tell them I want the generic version. Only one time the doc told me I had to use the best as I needed it for pneumonia. :scar

 

[guruatbol]

The generic for the ones I take have terrible side affects! Gonna go under the knife in order to quit the meds!

Most times I use generic. In fact most times I like to find the natural supplement that either prevents stuff or works better than this synthesized stuff.
