City of Calgary said that unless we use less water they'll have to turn off the taps.

Reggie Dunlop · 06-19-2005, 11:22 PM

I'll drink to that!

Finally, an excuse to not shower!

snappyk · 06-20-2005, 06:35 AM

it was funny watching the news last night when they were at the car wash and nobody knew about the restrictions. They didn't do a very good job of letting anybody know, I found out after 6 last night.

and here I am flushing the toilet like a fool!

Indeed.

Someone should have told me before I had a 20 minute shower this morning.

On a related note about flooding, it looks like it's a slow days in the news cause we actually made CNN...

Sounds like a great time to break the subject and discuss the virtues of auto-urine therapy!

Mmmmmm...Urine....

To conserve water, everyone should follow the old age motto for flushing a toilet

"it its yellow, let it mellow. If its brown, flush it down"

Then see a doctor.

Out today scrambling to get the equipement to get water out of my basement, I saw a few cops parked their cars at a car wash not letting people in, so the word is getting out.

Cops also set up around Sifton, checking cars that come in and out (I guess to prevent possible looters).

I guess the mayor blew a gasket in regards to Calgarians not taking it seriously.

Supposedly each Calgarian is short 6L/day - or inversly, we each need to cut 6L of use.

I only use 6L a day... yeish... lol...

Drink beer instead of water tonight. Plus drink from the bottle and you won't have to wash dishes.

But I strongly suggest that people practice methods of water conservation all the time, including the purchasing of rain barrels, which have come in very handy around this time.

Wise advice indeed Mr.Mustard.

To further conserve water you might consider not urinating indoors and instead use your neighbors yard or, if you live in an apartment, off the balcony.

I only flush when I've pooped. Have been for 3 years. Pee is sterile you know.

the house is a palace with marble and granite everything but the toilets are all full of urine and toilet paper. Bizarre.

Mmmmmm... lemony fresh....

I was flipping thru the (radio) stations today & one of the djs was yapping about how he saw some doofus watering his lawn this morning. This is mind boggling to me.

That's great can you post some video of this p*ss party.

My wife taught me the no flush technique she learned growing up. Visiting her folks home in a swanky part of New Jersey is bizarre because the house is a palace with marble and granite everything but the toilets are all full of urine and toilet paper. Bizarre. [/b][/quote]
A what?
