Tree-spring?
 

Story from: http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/08/12/lea....ap/index.html

I want a bucket of this blessed water!! But then again - I'm cheap so I don't want to spend my money on it. Maybe it's like the spring in "Tuck Everlasting"! Am I the only loser out there who has seen that movie?

Maybe those who drink it will actually become immortal!

I bet it's the communists. Putting fluoride in our water, but doing it through 'God' and our trees...

/seen Dr. Strangelove too many times...

hehe. communists.

... or they'll get cholera ... http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i3...ough/mummy.gif

oer... yeah. that'd be terrible too.

I bet God's water would be absolutely delicious.

Its the aliens from the other thread! They are spreading!!!

Hate to burst your bubble but it was proven later on to be a pipe that had flooded the roots. Got to the point where a couple of weeks later they were asking people who had drank from the tree to get checked out because it turned out to be sewage water.

The water was not sewage water. You see the sewage system is not sealed, is gravity flow. If the sewer system were to be clogged to the point as to stop all flow, the sewer would be flooding into the street from the manholes.

This brings us to the question, if it is not sewage(no coffee grounds, no toilet tissue) or a broken water pipe (water from broken pipe would have minute amounts of chlorine) the question remains, IS THIS GOD’S WATER ?

A local church advertised for a nonbiased research laboratory. Of the several that applied, Oscar and Hamolka were chosen. The lab spokes person, quoted in the San Antonio Iconoclast, said that the source of the water would be identified within the next 24 hours.

The lab personnel arrived from Skokie Illinois the following Tuesday. Testing began immediately. The next morning TV crews, radio stations, and several Catholic Priests had gathered around the roped off area around lab’s van and the gurgling tree. The lab’s spokes person was very evasive about answering questions.

Thursday the word going around the site was that it must be GOD’S WATER because it defied all other description. More Priests, a motorcycle club and several young men wearing black ‘t’ shirts with 3 on the front had joined the growing crowd.

That night a strange blue light was seen coming from behind the barrier. Loud talking in some unknown language could be heard. An ambulance, escorted by 13 police motorcycles pushed through the crowd. Men in black suits and orange glasses surrounded the back of the ambulance.

The black suited men were surrounding a short blue thing with what looked like a clear plastic shower curtain over his head. The noise from the crowd was thunderous. One of the lab men stood up on a box, raised his hands and the crowd got very quiet. The announcement went as follows.

The leak comes from very deep in the earth. The water is deionized, radioactive with traces of DNA from ‘W’. We are going to reverse the flow using the most powerful force we could get around the tree trunk. Monica Lewinski is now in position, step back everyone.

No doubt every one knows the rest of the story. George W was proven to be from outer space. The leak was definitely GOD’S WATER. The debate still rages as to which GOD sent the sauce. The citizens in the area are afraid to sit on their toilets. The tree trunk? George Foreman uses it to advertise the ungodly goodness of his new grill.

I went back to the scene several months later just after dark. I have bought a house in the neighbor hood. The GOD'S water makes me feel so good and I don't mind the blue glow at all. I sure hope the spring comes back. I have changed my cats name from abacus to Moon Mullins. I have to sign out now, you see I have this strong craving for neon light. No calories you know……..

I've have to wonder...

Why would a god who made the entire universe, show us a sign, by making a tree leak.
