Hi Golb, I was LOL doing that post on dancing cowboys. Thanks for sharing a grin!
omg i just saw that toilet water mention. I must read that article immediately! I’m a major hypochondriac and now that’s messing with my mind
Penelope, The Frugal Duchess, and SVB: Thanks for writing interesting articles…without those there would be no Sunday Review
Golbguru,
Thanks for the mention. I will read the other posts later this week since I’ve already stayed up too late watching Da Bears lose in the Super Bowl. Hmmm… the toilet water one sounds insteresting
Hey, Thanks for the mention! I read a couple of “fun” articles you pointed to and thoroughly enjoyed them
Will have to add your mini Sunday carnival to the list of carnivals I regularly track 
Super Saver: Oh..so you were rooting for the Da Bears. Sorry man…Colts run faster than Bears
Ispf:
Thanks..I will remind you when the next mini carnival is up.
it’s interesting this anti-tap water campaign upscale bottled water companies are launching. it’s a good marketing gimmick - appeals to people’s emotions with that kind of visual imaging.
i drink a lot of tap water at home but i try to boil it first. it tastes fine to me and i’m still alive. =) i’ve only had upscale water .. perrier or Fiji if it’s leftover from an event or in the case of perrier my aunt’s old roommate left an entire case! i love fizzy water but overpriced definitely.
