DID YOU DRINK YOUR 8 CUPS TODAY?

H2O
© - Tom Hyland - 4/29/12
H2O, H2O, Eeverywhere ...
But Not a Drop to Drink!
You Can lead a Horse to H2O ...
But ... You Can’t Make Him Drink!
Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary ...
Now She Is No More ...
For What She Thought Was H2O ...
Was H2SO4 !
“At Night I Tread The Barren Waste ...
Without a Taste of H2O ...
Cool, Clear H2O” ...
The Scandal That Destroyed ‘Tricky Dicky’ -
“I AM NOT A CROOK!”
H2O-Gate ...
Pure H2O - Just Hydrogen & Oxygen -
Has a Neutral pH of 7 -
Neither Acidic, Nor Basic.
Roughly, 70% of an Adult’s Body ...
Is H2O.
H2O Intoxication Occurs When H2O -
Dilutes the Sodium Level in the Bloodstream -
And Causes an Imbalance in the Brain!
70 - 75% of the Earth’s Surface is
H2O.
Much More Fresh H20 -
Is Stored Under the Ground in Aquifiers -
Than on the Earth’s Surface!
The US Uses about 346,000,000 Gallons of Fresh H2O -
Every Day - Nearly 80% of It -
For Irrigation & Thermo-Electric Power!
From ‘Wine and H2O’ by G.K. Chesterton:
And Noah he often Said to His Wife -
When He Sat Down to Dine -
“I Don’t Care Where the H2O Goes -
If it Doesn’t Get Into the Wine.”
40 DAYS N’ 40 NIGHTS ...
THE GREAT FLOOD!
H2O ...
ALL LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!

Thanks for the lesson on water. Have you read my story, It's in the Water? We are slaves to the marketing machine. Thankfully, I'm not one of those slaves. For fifty years, I drank little or no water except after strenuous exercise or in a hot environment. I was chastised for it by a woman who was insanely obese with many ailments. I have none of those.
Recently, however, my dysreflexia and lack of exercise in my lower extremities have caused swelling that results in my need to drink more water. Otherwise, I wouldn't.
I drink my tap water from a tap, not a plastic bottle at tremendous expense. I never understood why people pay all that money for designer bottle to drink the tap water in it.
Yes, PT Barnum was right.

| It surely does, yet we continue to pollute and decimate and destroy our fresh water sources with toxic pesticides, mercury, and tons of garbage. With our ever exploding human population today, some now predict that fresh water will one day becoming more expensive than gold. |
