This afternoon at work, we learned that the entire water supply on Mercer Island has been contaminated with E. coli ( Read more... )

While Starbucks water is triple filtered for that lovely pure taste that mostly only pregnant women and I can detect, I doubt it does anything against E. coli.

*snickers*

And yet, I would have never, ever in a million years guessed that I might die from drinking a cup of ice water after collecting a free Starbucks reward.

we don't always exit this world in the way we envisioned. i'll start the prayer circle for you.

It has been a hot topic here at the Seattle Times about the water thing. Mercer island: hit twice! Mysterious poop contamination!

ryan27 October 5 2014, 16:57:42 UTC

Oh yea!! it's crazy, isn't it!? i'm afraid...where does the poop water come from? I'm so disturbed! let me know if you find out the source!

could you at least post a few more hilarious stories before you go? :P

ryan27 October 5 2014, 16:57:55 UTC

I miss your posts!

What is it with the NW and all the contaminated water supplies? The same thing happens here. Some months ago there was a 'boiled water only' notice on the west side of town. Then, during the summer, there were rave reports about how the Willamette was safe to swim in, and not two months later, warnings about not swimming in it due to fecal contamination.

If you're not in the insurance game anymore, I hope it's because you're taking up writing full time. These posts are hilarious. I know a sustained effort is something else entirely, but really...

Oh I know, it's crazy about the water supply! i'm so glad i didn't get sick!

haha I wish I could take up writing full time, but i just don't know where to start! I don't know if I should start writing an e-book, or write a book and send it to publishers...I guess starting is the hardest part, and what I want to write about! I haven't left the insurance industry, i'm just doing something that's different :(
