They should switch to Toronto tap water - now with Xtra algae! For that skunky goodness!

"NYC bagels + tap water = good. D.C. tap water + pretzels = good."


Adding a bagel or pretzel to tap water sounds awful. Ned Flanders might like it but he is atypical.


Yes, I know what the writer meant.

These Anacostia river water pretzels taste like shiate.

DC tap water is nasty. Even after passing through a Brita filter.

Haney had been making pretzels at home for two years before he opened The Pretzel Bakery in April. At first, he tried baking with water filtered through a Brita. Then, he decided to try them with water straight from the tap. He says they still tasted great.

Many chemicals and that can harm or kill you, are also colorless and tasteless.

Don't know how that got in there.

Having worked on many civil engineering projects in the DC metro area over the past few decades, I would not touch anything made with DC tapwater.

The Pitt may go down in history as one of the most DEPRESSING things I've ever played! It looked great but the storyline...baby snatching, slavery, Pittsburgh, whew!

I remember the first time I had a big, chewy pretzel. I thought they were all the tiny crunchy ones you get from the supermarket. Oh, no, my friend, oh no. This was a new experience on the lines of trying key limes or heroin. I was hooked.

Now, Rain Shadow Meat in Seattle makes their own brats, and sells soft pretzel BUNS to go with them! Add mustard, eat, and die happy...

sorry about that, but it's kind of like saying the titanic sinks in the end.

plus, I think that there's a 5 year statute of limitations on spoiler-alerts.

either way, great game. enjoy

I prefer Dredd Zeppelin.

Led Zeppelin music, to a reggae beat, with an Elvis impersonator as the lead singer.

My wife made me collect all 100 steel ingots in the yard. You don't really appreciate how big and wide open the space is until you climb all the way up. Also, the Wild Bill PS3 glitch is SO AWESOME; going behind the buildings and seeing how large and empty things are with unbroken line of sight... breathe-taking!

abfalter: I prefer Dredd Zeppelin.

It sounds funny in theory, but I saw them live, and they were horrendous. It was like watching the last half hour of SNL--the one joke gets old fast, and it goes on and on and on.

there's a certain cachet in representing your roots, even if they're transplanted roots.

Oh, it's got cachet, baby. It's got cachet up the ying-yang.

Heh. I remember when Steve and Garry (in Chicago, mid-80s) would play them all the time. Had them on live a few times.

On his shoulder is a patch with the new DC Water logo: "dc" with a big blue water drop and the words "water is life" beneath.

"God created the District of Columbia to test the faithful..."

Englebert Slaptyback: "NYC bagels + tap water = good. D.C. tap water + pretzels = good."


Adding a bagel or pretzel to tap water sounds awful. Ned Flanders might like it but he is atypical.


While bagels are Jewish just like the Lord Jesus Christ, and pretzels are from the same country as Martin Luther, they are both clearly "ethnic" and therefore far too interesting for Neddly Deddily.

Adding tap water can make it better (as long as it hasn't been Satanically fluoridated), but if you add to much water it starts sounding like the Devil's own homeopathy.

Best to stick to white bread with no crust and well water. Or maybe a sponge soaked in vinegar!

/praise Gee-Diddle-Eesus!

"the TapIt Network, a national campaign that collaborates with DC Water to promote businesses that serve tap water and make it available for water-bottle refills."

What is this amazing technology that can get water out of the wall and into a bottle? How much will this cost me? Newsletter?
