It was on this date in 1945 that a city in Michigan became the first to put fluoride in its tap water. I mention it because the ‘human drinks tap water like it was, uh, water, and I like to brag about how much stronger it makes my teeth.

And I need that extra dental help, what with my Coca-Cola and candy habits. And the street fighting doesn’t help.

Plus the tap is the only place to get something to drink for free besides the stacks of soda they put in front of Albertson’s.

Monday’s forecast: The free soda is almost as convenient as tap water now that those locked out workers are there to help you load up your car.
