Water makes the world go round
21.01.10
JAN 21 — Today is a school day, so all across the country many children attending public schools would be consuming unsafe drinking water or getting dehydrated.
In our government schools, usually, piped water in the restrooms and the odd tap by the field are the only sources of free water.
The long-term implications — in personal health and obesity — will play out in time. The moral examination of us — the adults/taxpayers — to let the problem persist so long will not be pretty reading.
Despite the shocking willingness of the Ministry of Education to invest in physical constructs — which incidentally are constructed through the process of government tender, and please do read between the lines — there is no or very little in the way of funding for the installation and maintenance of water fountains/dispensers in schools. I’ll argue readily that water comes before air-conditioned halls, quickly-obsolete computer labs and teachers’ dining rooms.

It doesn’t hurt business either that Your Nation Natural Diet Water comes with a free dispenser fashioned after the cute cherub fountains found in Italy (see photo). You can choose from a variety of colors to fit your home or office décor.
“This ain’t just any spring water,” claims Joe. “Making Your Nation a part of a sensible diet plan is the only way to lose weight quickly and effectively. We guarantee it or your money back.” Joe goes on to say that all one needs to do is drink 8-8oz. bottles of his water a day, along with a sensible diet, and he guarantees the pounds will fall away. Your Nation is a bit more expensive than regular water, but it has to be claims Freely. “People didn’t get fat by not spending their hard earned money on fast food, and they aren’t gonna get skinny by drinking tap water. They need a special water to help them do that and Your Nation is the key to that success.”
Joe wouldn’t let us in on why he believes his water is different, but when asked, he did show us before and after pictures of some of his clients. Take Cindy C. from Elsinore, TX. Your Nation has been a part of her diet plan now for 2 years and she has gone from a size 22 dress to a size 2 and looks like a million bucks. Her testimony says volumes. “Within two hours of my first taste of Your Nation, I knew I was hooked. I’ve been drinking Your Nation regularly now for going on two years and love the taste. It is so refreshing, and along with a sensible diet, if I feel like eating, which I normally don’t after drinking Your Nation, I have been able to shed the pounds effortlessly.”
