    When I was 15 the girl I was seeing had a converted loft in her (mum's) house, and the water tank for the house was in a cupboard next to the room up there. One day I emptied red food colouring into it. There were lots of screams when the taps started running red. They never did find it funny.

    RED RUM!!

    The United States invariably does the right thing, after having exhausted every other alternative. -Winston Churchill America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between. -Oscar Wilde Wow, even the French showed a little more spine than that before they got their sh*t pushed in.[^] -Colin Mullikin

      Public Health Officials say the corpse wasn't a problem: Body Of Water[^] If a child poops in the local swimming pool the entire pool has to be emptied of occupants but if you put a freakin' corpse in a hotel water supply for two weeks there isn't a problem - according to the tests. Sorry, I don't believe a single word any government official says as someone is on the payroll here or there is backroom shennanigins designed to save an insurance company from lawsuits or something. This makes absolutely no sense when compared with all other warnings we've received in the past. They are liars and thieves, every one of them.

        To me the big question is how did she get there? Maybe she got sucked up a water pipe - something is amiss here.

        Well yes, but that was not what you posted about.

        Falling into a covered water tank behind a locked door on top of a roof would be an unusual accident.

        Autopsy results deferred pending further tests and results, CCTV footage of her acting weird on the last day she was seen. It is a homicide investigation at the moment.

          It depends on if the corpse poops or not.

          Software Engineering is different from the traditional forms of engineering that are bound by the laws of physics. Software Engineering is only bound by the laws of stupidity.

            Study: (didn't look it up) Article body: Between 10 and 14 samples came back negative for fecal coliforms and total coliforms (typical test) Article Title: No harmful bacteria You: Not a problem That quality decay is typical - and as usual, we could explain away the study-body-title decay with stupid money-grabbing non-researching quasi-trained semi-professional sheeple-attention-grabbing "journalists". This doesn't explain the leap of faith to "No problem", though. Nowhere ever is stated that "The Government" said "That corpse wasn't a problem". That's simply crappy reporting, exaggeration, attention grabbing on from you. I am a bit disappointed, I held you to a higher standard. Furthermore, the article states: It's likely there was sufficient chlorine in the tank to destroy any bacteria that might have otherwise been present. and Another series of tests will be conducted before health officials will approve the hotel's water supply for drinking, he said. Sorry.

                  You must be one of those big government liberals I'm always hearing about on Fox News. I guarantee you when the zombie apocalypse comes the government will tell us to 'stay home' and put 'plastic over the windows' and 'everything is under control' right up until the point you and your friends are alone in a warehouse fending off hoards of zombies with a shotgun and a chainsaw. At that point you'll turn to the busty dark haired beauty in the tattered tanktop who is at your side and say, "OMG, MehGerbil was right!", and she'll say, "Kiss me you hansome devil", and you'll lean in for the kiss but she'll bite your neck because she's a zombie now - and I'll be like RFLOL.

                      Very ironic, as dead bodies have the tendency to poo as well.

                        When the Columbia was still in orbit, NASA on the ground had a pretty good idea that the reentry would end in catastrophe. They chose to keep them in the dark. They didn't want a small crew on a small ship to panic. If that calmness was worth keeping them in the dark, do you think the government would do everything they could to keep the public from panicking (unless it fits their agenda).

                          According to the government teh small amounts of chlorine in the drinking water killed off all the bad bacteria whereas the eye-redding levels of chlorine in the local swimming pool doesn't quite cut it. Entire corpse rotting in a tank of drinking water for two weeks: No problemo. Toddler poops his diaper on the other end of the pool: Run for your life. Government = Nothing but Lies

                                  I see it differently. Dead bodies are made of meat (however much decomposed). Poop is made of poop. Meat, even rotting meat, is better for your consumption than poop.

                                    To me the big question is how did she get there? Maybe she got sucked up a water pipe - something is amiss here.

                                    A pipe? It was on the roof of a hotel - unless she was some sort of wee folk (the mythical kind) she didn't arrive there via a pipe.

                                      Public Health Officials say the corpse wasn't a problem: Body Of Water[^] If a child poops in the local swimming pool the entire pool has to be emptied of occupants but if you put a freakin' corpse in a hotel water supply for two weeks there isn't a problem - according to the tests. Sorry, I don't believe a single word any government official says as someone is on the payroll here or there is backroom shennanigins designed to save an insurance company from lawsuits or something. This makes absolutely no sense when compared with all other warnings we've received in the past. They are liars and thieves, every one of them.

                                      That is an over simplification of both of those situations.

                                        I see it differently. Dead bodies are made of meat (however much decomposed). Poop is made of poop. Meat, even rotting meat, is better for your consumption than poop.

                                        Dead bodies often poop one last time.

                                          I think our current government would sell us as slaves to China if they could get away with it.

                                          You're too optimistic. China doesn't need slaves, just resources.
