Golly. Piping it in from miles away. The people in my place get local glacier water. Literally the same stuff you people pay three bucks a bottle for. My aunt was up from California and she downed gallons of tap water, filling up a bottle to bring home. It is good, though. Tapwater from other places just doesn't taste right.

That's why we're here, too.
