everything is wrong

i have become more than a little worried about the state of things. everything is poisonous, everything is wrong. several months back, i purchased a bunch of polycarbonate water bottles thinking that i was doing myself good. then matt lauer reveals to everyone that there are chemicals in that damn plastic that we ingest with the water that is supposed to nourish our bodies. i was a little pissed off. i know that you would have to drink gallons of the chemical per day for it to be harmful, but i don't care..i don't want a trace of it near me! i went to www.mysigg.com and read their frequently asked questions and then immediately ordered a couple bottles. the company has been around for a century and is still going strong. the materials they use to make the water bottles are non-toxic, they're lightweight and you can get them in a variety of designs. i bought myself a camouflage print one, but i would've bought this one if i saw it earlier. oh, fyi, i ordered them from the website and waited quite some time for them (i'm pretty sure they were being made by elves in switzerland) but you can find them at whole foods.

Marie, dont be such a paranoid child of America, we came from Oak Park, did you forget that? we drank from the garden hose and I ate dirt. People die everyday from all kinds of different things, God chooses when that happens so drink eat and be merry cause life is short.

-Who do you think

chris, i understand what you're saying. i don't buy into a lot of shit that i hear every day, but something like this, toxic plastic, i believe. the facts are out there. our father is a chemist..he can confirm these things for you. why do you think cancer is everywhere? it's because of our lifestyle..overprocessed foods, microwaves, etc., etc.. you know i believe in god, but i don't believe we should just stand there and let things happen.

The oldest case of human cancer was documented in an egyptian scroll between 3000-1500 BC... Did they drink water out of plastic bottle or heat up their pizza in a microwave?
