I drink Propel; not only is it the only flavored water I've come across that actually isn't carbonated/sparkling, but it was something recommended by my doctor several years ago when I had a sickness that was causing me to lose electrolytes. But, Propel hasn't been on the shelves in a while . . . a long while . . . come to find out the company that makes it (which I believe is actually Gatorade) is shut down right now, because - you guessed it - COVID. Guess I won't be drinking that stuff again.

Gatorade Zero is still on the shelves. It has all the electrolytes as Propel, with none of the sugar.
I’m a big fan of Propel Zero as well.
How about diet iced tea? No sugar, no carbonation, and the tannins in tea are powerful antioxidants..

To be honest I’m a causal Gatorade guy. It’s refreshing once in awhile but not something I’d go out of my way to drink.

I prefer Brawndo. It's got what plants crave. It's got electrolytes.

The only thing wrong with Gatorade is the amount of sodium. It’s in there to make you drink more of it.
Once upon a time, in my pre-diabetic days, I could kill a 64 ounce bottle in ten seconds.
Nice to know my beer chugging days in college served me well.

Are you ready for this? Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, but in DC it will be Fauci Day.

I wish Seinfeld was still around to write an episode on this. Move over, Festivus!

I know exactly where this Ingle's location is, though I haven't shopped there in years (or other Ingle's locations for that matter, since they tend to be a little pricier than other region chains like Kroger) . . . but, that's not the point.

The point is this entire fricken state needs to get its act together and do what it can to combat this fricken virus!

Well, Trump's canceled our relief checks altogether now. Thanks, Trump.

Well, Trump's canceled our relief checks altogether now. Thanks, Trump.

He didn't "cancel it" he refused to sign the bill with all the bloat and the GOP and the Democrats refused to work together to remove it.

It really is amazing. People said the $600 was a slap in the face. Trump agreed, refused to sign, and now people are ****** at Trump. Move proof that no matter what he did the left was always going to spin it negative.

And now apparently Trump did sign the relief bill and we are getting our checks (the $2,000 ones at that). I'm so confused.
