  • Tiny shrimp in NYC water

    For the years that I've spent time in NYC it's been bragged about by New Yorkers - "ah yeah, our water comes straight from the Catskills, our tap water is better than spring bottled water blah blah blah".....

    Mmm but only, apparently, if you like tiny shrimp in your water. I guess maybe some people do.

    Can't get myself to drink it. I'm dying of thirst right now but I won't go to the tap - have to go out and buy some bottled water.

            Have you been able to sleep in your bed at all?? You know. With the MAJOR infestation of bedbugs going around in NYC...

                I think shrimp would be the least of my worries when it comes to NYC tap water.

                    I think itnis a positive thing. It shows the water isn't deadly.
