    Yes, that or your sinful music I should've been more clear 8 glasses isnt "to much" in the sense that it'll harm you its to much in the sense that you'll be ok if you dont. In short dont stress over it.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Damn! I had begun writing my will, to the tune of "Strike For The South, the Texan, shall recieve my entire Bloc Party collection and shall sing along with it for five weeks", it would be worth clocking it for IMHO.

    Arach, I had never considered the water used for my numerous coffees alegitimate source of health and vitality!

    Do you think the ice in one of my numerous Saturday night drinks count? If so, I could be the healthiest person in NZ.

    An interesting article at snopes.com that dispels the myth that we need 8-10 glasses of water per day. Remember that we also get water from food.

    Also, three cheers for being in the clear:

    You can't NOT try this one. Offer it to everyone else just to get a reaction!

    1 part Jagermeister
    1/2 oz Midori melon liqueur
    1/2 oz black raspberry liqueur
    1/2 oz pineapple juice
    1/4 oz cranberry juice

    Shake ingredients with ice and then serve as a shot.

    Since it's on tap I drink a hell of a lot of it, don't drink much else at all really.

    I expect we'll get a "I vomited 12 times in three hours... Awesome." thread.

    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

    About half to a full carton of fruit juice a day + 1/3 to 1/2 of a 1.5 liter water bottle (have hard water and no filters)

    Btw, there is such a thing like overhydration which can kill.

    In addition to a can of pop and 1-2 glasses of juice and/or milk, I probably drink around 10 half-glasses of water a day. Unless I've been involved in a strenuous physical activity (running, moving boxes/furniture, etc.), I usually can't down an entire glass of water at once.

    Indeed. I don't remember if it was from last year or earlier this year, but there was an incident in Washington State where a participant in a radio contest died from drinking too much water.
