I think I've heard the water story is an urban myth, but I can't source it or anything.

so its not just cause its in ny. its the water

which is why chinese food is better there too
the tap water here (Santa Barbara) is horrible

everyone drinks bottled water or has a filter

I'm sure the better restaurants filter their water too

as good as the water on long island is, it also has the highest breast cancer rate in the country. there were grumman military plants on long island. i still feel there is some correlation

In general I'm about as skeptical about this sort of thing as anyone, but this one sounds plausible, for two reasons: First, I've read many times, and believe, that many types of cooking are very sensitive to water, and in particular that the chemistry of rising dough is quite sensitive to mineral content. Second, I know he's right that New York has very good tap water — this is generally accepted, and is my personal experience as well.

It's amazing how many places, even big cities, have bad-tasting water. Though New York isn't unique: I think I've mentioned before that Sam's Club even used to (may still) bottle and sell Fort Worth water. (Fort Worth's is good but Dallas's isn't, which always seemed odd but was undeniable.)

Heh, never heard of the Shakira world cup song. Despite how much of a massive whore Shakira has become. There is no better song to remind me of the innocence of childhood than Estoy Aqui. Obviously there is a story or 2 involved in this, but still. Will always Shakira for Estoy Aqui.

i have no clue who don omar is or why that video is popular
02-23-2012 , 12:18 AM
that was actually my first guess, must have missed it. saw it the other day while rewatching the landon donovan goal

justin bieber i probably would have got eventually. don omar probably got some bots to refresh his video 300 million times
