I just had to say something about this post from Ann Althouse - Althouse: “We believe bottled water has become less about the physical act of hydration and more about being a companion to people.”
This just cracked me up due to two of my latest addictions…Perrier with Lemon and MetroMint water. I love both of these waters and binge on them constantly. Unfortunately, they are both pretty expensive, so the husband is not too well disposed of this habit ;)
Metro Min especially bills itself as refreshing to the body and soul, which was what I thought of as soon as I read Althouse’s post header. These days, it is not enough for water to simply hydrate you and quench your thirst - it also has to bring you closer to salvation :) Go figure!

Listed below are links to weblogs that reference Nirvana in Water:
I think bottled water have also become a fashion statement. I had some friends of my parents bring them when they came over for lunch once. And we were like, “uh, its alright, the water at home is SAFE!”
Weird. :confused:

I would advise you to shift from Hosting Matters, your current hosting company. See what they’ve done:

for me, bottled water is about drinking something not laced with lead, mercury, and/or arsenic.
