Actually, Palisades Park's pool was salt water (it was advertised as the world's largest salt-water pool), so not directly from the Hudson. No idea where they got the water from, and don't really want to know, because I swam in it once.
They piped it up from the Hudson and salted it as needed (it's already pretty salty -- the river basically runs both ways with the tides).
(I've got two sources, a PBS documentary on Palisades Park and the "Make the Hudson Swimable" folks who are pretty darn cool.)
Please don't say "Like Girls Gone Wild?" in a hushed tone on your work phone. It's creepy.
Is this the same cow-orker who considers his life an open book, and shares it with you on a daily basis?
I, also, have the same gift. The last time I swung a baseball bat I wrenched my back enough to necessitate 6 months of PT.
What scares me is that I have seen the hearts of Seattleites, and they are blacker than black. Sure, they act all nice, but they're petty, arrogant, passive-aggressive thugs when pushed.
Huh. You really think so?
Or, y'know, What Plei Said.
See? Another 50 points for Seattle.
Although I probably float better than the less than 1% body fat LA supermodels I see in the Coffee Bean, so if it all floods, I'll be the beauty standard.
Hm.
I feel confident in my bat handling skills. And I'd like a little more reach than a hammer can afford.
oh, and jilli, i hope we didnt pile on you the other day about the wee goth babes and how you are somehow supposed to rescue us from the less polite baby bats.

Nope, I did not feel piled-upon. I clapped my hands with glee and took notes.
See, I want the knife on account of no reach, no aim, sucky large coordination, yet fantastic small coordination. It's my last ditch effort. I know what ita says is true, I think it's my only hope.
The information on the looting by police was on the Times-Picayune page, but it seems to have scrolled off (or been deleted) by now.
Stab them or cut them, Cindy? As far as I've been told, it's hard to kill someone with a stab to the belly -- it's why hari kiri-ers cut in three directions.
If you have no reach, then don't you want a weapon that gives you reach? Knife is good for no aim, but so is a bat.
