Algae and Lemon Cocktails

[Lance]

Tap Water Update
Increased algae in the Fox River are causing some City of Aurora residents to notice a change* in the normal taste and odor of their tap water. Aurora’s water treatment plant is continuously monitoring and adjusting the treatment process to minimize the effects of the algae. In addition, as the number of algae in the river decreases, the taste and odor should improve. While the tap water is perfectly safe to drink, residents may continue to experience an unusual taste or odor for a period of time as the affected water passes through the distribution system.

* A change? This crap tastes like sewer sludge.

Lemon seems to kill it though, and I didn't notice it in my morning coffee.

[troubleagain]

Ick. Oh, well, at least (I hope) you aren't smelling chlorine like I do in my city's water.

[Lance]

No, never. The other half of our water comes from Lake Michigan.

And I must say, this is the best "city water" I've ever had anywhere. I grew up on well water on Long Island, NY, which is as clean and tasteless as it gets. Water filtered through all that glacial debris gets pretty darn clean.

The water here is generally almost as good as that.

[troubleagain]

I'm jealous. Well, except for your little algae problem. :yuk:

[Superluminal]

We have well water here. Years ago a geologist told me that we live on top of an underground river that flows down from the Great Lakes to the Gulf. Our water tastes great, we may be drinking the same water you have.

And you believe what a "geologist" tells you? next he's gonna try an convince you the water is not left over from Noah's flood.

[The Beer Slayer]

Water is the source of all life. Seventy percent of the Earth's surface is covered with water. Why, do you realize that seventy percent of YOU is water? You and I need fresh, pure water to replenish our precious bodily fluids.

[Enzo]

Keep your bodily fluids to yourself, bub.

Algae in the water, the environment?

Coincidence? DOn't bet on it.

[Dragon Star]

Christ, this is worse then when the Government was putting Fluoride in the water! Good thing they stopped doing that and controlling our minds...

You can have all the water. Yuck! I'll take limeade, club soda, cranberry juice, milk, sports drinks, but absolutely no water. :P

[Lance]

A nice tall glass of tonic with a lime in it doesn't suck.

[umop ap!sdn]

Sure doesn't. For that matter, add grapefruit juice and various kinds of booze to my list. I like strong stuff.

[Superluminal]

And you believe what a "geologist" tells you? next he's gonna try an convince you the water is not left over from Noah's flood.

Well, I'd rather believe I'm drinking water from the Great Lakes, than the sludge from the paper mill.

*raises hand*

I AM drinking water from the Great Lakes...

[Lance]

Our water is pretty much back to normal now. It may have a bit of a taste to it, but it's a lot better.

[Enzo]

What, you think LAke Erie is "great?"

[umop ap!sdn]

Does that water taste eerie?

[Enzo]

It tastes like Ricki Lake.

Not to be confused with Lily Pons.

[umop ap!sdn]

LMMFAO!
