You think I'm crazy.  I have proof though.  Ok, maybe not that water can cure anything but I can prove that people think that water can cure anything.

Proof:
                I am going to refer to the all-wise entertainment industry again.  Have you ever watched a movie and someone receives very bad news?  The news breaker will almost always ask "can I get you a glass of water?"  or tell someone else "get her/him some water".  Amazing isn't it !  How a glass of water could cure or at least take the edge off of our psychological trauma. 

Example: 
                Police Detective:  I'm sorry to have to tell you this ma'am but your husband was found at the bottom of a ravine. He was thrown from his car when the it skidded off the road and then the car landed on top of him.

                Woman covers her eyes and starts sobbing.

                Police Detective to Uniform :  Don't just stand there get her a glass of water.

HTH is that supposed to help?  Is there some kind of magic mind numbing water that I don't know about?  Let me just be the first to say, if anything traumatizing happens to me and you bring me a glass of water it better be followed by a valium or two or some other mind numbing drugs.

By the way, this magic water also helps with all other types of trauma including but not limited to:  major burns, crushed bones, minor cuts and scrapes, decapitation :/ ,  labor during childbirth (in the form of ice chips made from magic water), and all types of shock (even though I was taught by the Red Cross that people in shock shouldn't drink water or other liquids/food.  They apparently didn't know about the "magic water" that makes it all better. 

So the next time you hear someone  in the movies say "get her a glass of water" ask yourself... WHY?

(not real proof so don't go out buying up all the smartwater in your local grocery store - Perrier is pretty close to perfect though IMHO)
