Even if it&#8217;s been here for years.  In bottles and on tap it appears.  Making tears and when it rain, it makes mud.  Listen to your throat go chug.  Dehydration, overpowering.  Jump into the bathroom, I&#8217;m showering.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, okay, enough with the LL Cool J lyrics.  I know, I know, I was stretching it a bit with the &#8220;overpowering\/showering&#8221; rhyme.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, it seems like everyone is coming out with their own water or selling water.  McDonald&#8217;s gives us the option of having bottled water with our Big Mac and fries.  The <a href=http:\/\/www.macys.com\/ target=_blank>Macy&#8217;s<\/a> stores here on this rock in the middle of the Pacific Ocean even sell their own brand of bottled water.  <\/p>\n<p>With the amounts of bottled water being sold, I&#8217;m surprised <a href=http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Lil_jon target=_blank>Lil Jon<\/a> hasn&#8217;t come up with his own brand of water called, Crunk Water.<\/p>\n<p>Not only are there tons of bottled water to choose from, there&#8217;s also tons of flavored water to choose from, like lemon-flavored bottled water, berry-flavored bottle water, and orange-flavored water.<\/p>\n<p>One particular brand of water I&#8217;ve been interested in is the <a><\/a><a href=http:\/\/www.vitaminwater.com\/ target=_blank>Glac&#233;au Vitamin Water<\/a>, which comes in thirteen different flavors, each flavor contains a variety of vitamins and minerals, and each flavor has a different smart-ass label.<\/p>\n<p>Now I was going to try all thirteen flavors, but unfortunately, I couldn&#8217;t find all thirteen flavors and I have a fear of the number thirteen.  Although, it&#8217;s not like the fear\/creepiness I had with the number sixteen, after seeing Lindsay Lohan&#8217;s picture for the first time, saying she was totally hot, finding out she was only sixteen years old, and waiting for someone to arrest me for saying an underaged girl was hot.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I ended up getting just nine flavors, and I&#8217;m going to individually talk about each one.<\/p>\n<p><b>Flavor:<\/b>  Essential<br \/>\n<b>Main Vitamins &#038; Minerals:<\/b>  Vitamin C and Calcium<br \/>\n<b>Taste:<\/b>  Orangy, like a very weak orange soda without the carbonation.<br \/>\n<b>Perfect For:<\/b>  People who want to get some Vitamin C, but hate the feeling they get from drinking orange juice right after brushing their teeth.<\/p>\n<p><b>Flavor:<\/b>  Rescue<br \/>\n<b>Main Vitamins &#038; Minerals:<\/b>  B Vitamins and Chamomile<br \/>\n<b>Taste:<\/b>  It&#8217;s like I&#8217;m drinking tea leaves or flowers.

Pretty good.<br \/>\n<b>Perfect For:<\/b>  People who have to sit through a timeshare presentation and don&#8217;t want to get caught spacing out.
